I was in the Army & in 1985 I was posted to Driffield & one of the other guys was from Hull & asked me if I fancied going along to
watch a game. I can't remember the name of the street he was from, but it was very close to the ground. That was me hooked from that day on. If memory serves me right, we won the first 10 games in the league that year?

Amen to that brother, praise the lord!!(Johnny Whiteley)


Btw, does being from East Hull count?

Anywhere outside Hessle Road

I'M from dundee (bit obvious by my name). GRew up surrounded by football and union.. used to go to the local to watch super league when it 1st started on sky.
Moved to sunderland for work and one of the lads is born and bred FC fan.. he got me interested in it and went to a game.. good day, good banter and I been stuck on FC ever since..

i grew up on hessle road (rugby ave off rugby street) but the first person to take me was my stepdad who was from cornwall, he just loved any rugby and naturally chose the closest team to support, the downside though was that he would also take me to the circle to watch cricket all f@cking day, which i hated.

I`m a glory seeker.




Coming from Cleethorpes (not exactly a hotbed of R.L.) I was persuaded by an F.C.fan to go to a G.B. v France game.
Went again to watch an F.C. game,got hooked on it.

Not the same thing i know, but,.. Speaking as a lifelong Cas fan, i've always had a real soft spot for Hull F.C, my 'second' team
i reckon.

I think that works the other way round in a lot of cases.

Certainly does for me. Always love going there. Synonymous with rugby league and they must keep a license.

Praying we get one.. Really think we could kick-on like yourselves and Warrington if we can just get the new stadium.
Although, with the really big crowds you get, you could argue you deserve even better..

Don't get us started!
