I didn't realise they spoke with Scottish accents in Hull.

Don't try and turn this into a childish 'our place is better than yours' thread. It's been done umpteen times. icon_rolleyes.gif

The article is an Oz view of Hull (KR). One read by a fair few people.

If you must have a childish 'better than' thread then argue that Hull is better than Sydney.

childish? try looking at the person who posted the link in the first place

people are quite capable of reading articles without immature people trying to gain a few laughs at the expense of others

Even a signing like Willie Mason couldn't save Huddersfield from being utterly invisible and pointless.

All this does is show the reporter as unprofessional and ignorant.

"Nothing too dramatic has happened at Craven Park, except for when strong winds blew the giant Red Robin mascot off the stadium a few years back."

Promotion? How about the Cooke saga?

"... Hull KR's beloved captain and former Canberra Raiders goalkicker Michael Dobson..."

Dobbo's captain now?

I suggest she does some research before writing an article such as this.

Seems like the Hull Daily Mail has its knickers in a twist over this story but its readers don't appear to be so opposed looking at the bulk of the comments.

Yes you are childish and typically miss the point. Your silly anti Huddersfield comment was just plain stupid..

What is 'funny' about this article is the lazy and myopic view of the journalist. She was happy to use the usual cliches and stereotypes.So , yes I was trying to gain a few laughs at the expense of the Lucy Carne icon_biggrin.gif

But you keep kneejerking - its all you are good for.

Appears to be some variety of Duvet native to Australia.

nice backtracking

you posted this link for one reason only, to take the p!ss out of the city of hull and to try and get reactions from others, you're well known for doing the same with wakefield

i doubt you were trying to get a few laughs out of the reporter, your just trying to save face!
