Well, I used the word "nearly" because at the time we had to transfer list a load of players, and our coach, Royce Simmons, ended up running a load of marathons to raise money to keep the club going. "Nearly" is the only word to use as fortunately we're still here, same as you, Cas & Wakey are still here after near misses.

I used "effectively" because 1995 was a funny year due to the switch over to Summer & SL. We came 2nd bottom and went from the top tier to the second tier.

1999 our players were on strike as they weren't being paid due to the utter mismanagement from Wilby/Lloyd.

You're right, there are a lot of fans who won't have experienced the 90's and grown up only seeing a Hull side in SL. They certainly don't think Wembley is the norm, 4 from the last 11 at New Wembley isn't the norm is it, and due to the excitement this week around the club, the novelty hasn't worn off and I hope it never does.

I've seen Hull play in Division 1, and in 1999 we had all pretty much resigned ourselves to not having a club to support anymore. Regardless of how it all turned out, anyone who has supported Hull for a long time knows what adversity is.

That's sort of what I was getting at.Castlefords achievement is remarkable and it must be lovely for fans who have had it tough for a long time get some success again? I for one have enjoyed watching them and would be chuffed if they won grand final as well

Nah it's obviously cocaine, I've written a GUI in visual basic which allows you to take a sample from that photo and in real time give you the results. 100% cocaine nothing else straight from Pablo's old personal stash he forgot about.
