| Quote The Dentist Wilf="The Dentist Wilf"This is the interesting bit for me
"However, the Mail understands that while Hull City will be asking to play away from home on six occasions, the rugby league international will be the only request being made by Wigan". Dont they request weekends when Wigan RL are at home then! We have 2 home games in the last part of the season where we over lap, then there is this clipper race (Why) and Hull Fair, where it has been proved we can play games whilst the Fair is on! =redStill at least he has made a statement that does not include our inability to write!
'"
And he thinks we can't read either so he will expect us to listen to blumberside , how wrong can one man be? Maybe he is qualified as Gordon successor at no 10?

| Quote Raggytash="Raggytash"I don't mind, I'd watch us play on the banks of the Humber rather than contribute financial support towards a Premiership outfit that has priority over all decisions. We need some kind of parity. There would be a lot less resentment if we had equality. It would also benefit them to keep us and R.L fans in general happy.'"
Priority ! So thats why City moved a game V Ipswich to lunchtime so FC could play Wigan teatime on the same day Oct '07.

| Quote WormInHand="WormInHand"Indeed, and another balls up from the SMC.
All of us herded into the West and South stands facing the empty East stand with, I think, one bar open in South, which ran out of food and most drink midway through the first half.
2 or 3 people serving 5000 fans, Jeez, it took half an hour to queue and nothing there at the end.
Another pathetic example of the underestimation of rugby fans from our community stadium's management team, led by Duff and Co
'"
Think Adam Pearson in charge then . Also only half the crowd got tickets pre match so very small crowd expected , hence 2 sides of ground open and food prepared to cater for small crowd . Do you expect the SMC to cater for 10K if they expect just over 3 K .

I don't think the charter says Hull HAS to have one, just that it may have one.
Also the charter won't specify that it has to be at Walton Street.

| THE FACTS
- RL Needed a cast iron/set in stone commitment to a free weekend NOW
- A request to Football League can only be made in MARCH
- The confirmed fixture list comes out in JUNE with no guarantee of this free weekend being granted
Unless SMC took a huge gamble, the decision is correct.
Remember that TV Coverage, Hotel booking for supporters and Teams, Police cover, etc etc does not happen at the drop of a hat.
They take months of planning and months of notice.
If the ONLY time SMC would get a confirmed answer was June, and someone needed an answer - only a moron would agree to hosting the event.
This is good business sense, not one person on her does anything on a hope. You dont work unless you have a PO, you dont do anything till it has been approved, you dot every 'i' and cross every 't'.
Thats SMCs job, and thats exactly what they have done.
A decision like this cannot be made based on emotive factors. They are a Stadium Management company and they managed it correctly.

So how did 4 other grounds shared with football clubs manage it then?
Besides, even if there was a clash City could always play on the Sunday. Fixtures get moved to Sunday all the time because of mid week Euro fixtures.
