Leeds do better corporate numbers on Friday. Add in the most popular home fixtures against the better teams are always on Sky with us. |

| Quote number 6="number 6"Not our greatest away following but can you really blame fc fans, especially with kids at school next day having to suffer the nightmare of the m62? Diversions mean many won't get back to hull til around 2am. I did a shift swap otherwise i would have stayed home and watched it on tv too'"
Very fair point. I used to go to all the games home and away pre SL but that was when all games were on a sunday at 3pm bar the one SKY friday night game. This thursday night business is pretty much a write off for most fans unless it is a game against a local team. |

Better than what day, Thursday ? Last time you had a home game on a Sunday, Kevin Dick was your scrum half !  |

| Quote Channel Islander="Channel Islander"That's fair enough.
I'm more concerned we won't be watching anything on the pitch in a few years.'"
Sorry for the delay in replying, I ended up watching Bobby Crush in Las Vegas with the wife - I know!
Fair point regarding the attendance, but I guess the club are just about hanging on & hoping for a change of fortune when some of the young lads break through.
Regarding your concerns of the future, I think the next broadcasting deal will have greater implications. |

No, better than Sundays.
Also when it comes to Leeds with them being on tv so often then giving yourself 5 day turnarounds playing Sunday then Friday isn't as good for players as having a more usual Friday - Friday turnaround. |

Lets face up to facts while certain teams and rightfully so clubs like mine come up for constant criticism about crowds it's time to face up to the fact that crowds are generally and worryingly especially away crowds in terminal decline, tonight for instance sounded like half a dozen teenagers in a town centre after a night on the lash.
Not knocking Hull FC it is pretty much everyone now.

Hull and hull kr shouldn't be playing clubs from west of the pennines on a thursday night with a 7.45pm kick off. Keep it to clubs with around 1 hour travelling time

Maybe Hull fc and Hull kr could set up their own East Yorkshire League, if the likes of Widnes is too far to travel. |

Not just in this country, they play European games mid week on a regular basis. But Hull can’t manage a stretch along the m62 to Widnes. |
