Thanks for that 1315.

Im not from Hull. I am Wakefield born and bred. Outwood to be precise.

My link to East Hull is through my wife. She is from East Hull but moved to Altofts in 1987, with her parents, through her Dads work.

She adopted Wakey as a second team until she learnt to drive. We are both genuine fans of the sport, and try to watch both teams every weekend when we can, if our games dont clash.

An example of how we are both keen on watching both our clubs was earlier this season. We went to the summer bash at Blackpool and Hull KR played on the Saturday. We stayed Friday to Monday. Wakefield also played Friday and Monday. We still went to those games.

Ah well mate if Newmarket does comes off at least it will be a bit nearer for you!

Don't explain yourself mate, not needed.

A true fan. Had a season ticket for 54 yrs. Seen many dark days but never ever thought of supporting any other team.
