This a reply to a few earlier posts, as much as Newton a great player and in some instances he was the best at what he did. There no way you can have a minute round of applause,,, only because of the manner of his death. The minute silence was more than sufficient. It's a crying shame that there was the odd few showing no respect and makin a mochery of Newton. But to me I will always remember Newton in the game vs Aussie in nz, when gb won, what a game he had that night...... Gone but no forgotten rip terry

Any reason for that?


It seems a bit harsh to be pinning this on one club. I presume that there were plenty of fans from several clubs in attendance, and so an entire fanbase doesn't deserve to be tarnished by (incorrect) claims that a group of 6 or so came from that particular club. No matter where they're from, the majority of their fanbase will have observed the silence fittingly and with the respect that was due.
Any criticism should be directed at the group of lads that were disrespectful. Not at a club.

And the 70-odd thousand attendees who observed the silence correctly should be applauded. Not all will have liked the player, but all will have understood the tragic circumstances surrounding Terry's death, and respect him for being a talented player, even if he was particularly irritating for your club. Well done to all of those.

Rubbish.

And now with some truth spoken and KR fans in the clear... phew, we watch this thread die away an fall into the virtual terrace history, never mind they'll be another Hull bashing thread along before long a'?

Its not rubbish its fact-HKR having this mythical massive following is just that, a myth.

As an afterthought this isnt the first time ive made comment about Hull fans at the Stoop

Good post mate,you were correct in saying a minority gets more attention than the people who respected the one minutes silence.

Rovers and Hull fans travel well, I've no doubt fans from the clubs you've stated travel well to, I've been to the stoop twice, ended up chatting in the bar afterwards with quins fans twice and been told twice how good our support is, not that I needed telling.

You don't like Hull then just be at peace with it an join the end of the long queue, mostly made up by bandwagoners, let's all get stuck into Hull again. This threads the perfect example...
