| Ours needs a review IMO; I read on Twitter that Martyn Sadler reckons we're difficult to deal with, or something like that, maybe someone can post the detail.
Our own media is pretty good IMO in terms of website quality and volume of stories. Hull FC live is a good offer and strong value for money. The tone of the articles is a bit OTT, but if you can't talk the club up on your own website, you can't do it anywhere. I regularly get info via email on news stories and merchandise offers.
The relationship with the HDM seems good; they fairly often get the exclusives. I like the fact they try to report on us positively, but some of the articles this season have been a bit nauseating in tone, Jacob Miller's "moment of ecstasy" getting his visa being an example. We also seem to have a reasonable relationship with the Yorkshire Post - Dave Craven has written some good articles on us this year.
We have absolutely no currency with Sky, but then again apart from Wigan, Leeds and Warrington, we're not alone. Not sure whether McRae's involvement has been a net positive or negative.
The Radio Humberside relationship has been fractured for years due to their continued negativity towards us dating back to the Rule era. Despite being a public service broadcaster, the inherent bias arising from the imbalance in their team, exacerbated by Lloyd's cosy relationship with Hudgell, means they'll continue to be happy to have Adam Walker on the Sports bulletin in the morning 2 days running but fail to even reference Ben Crooks getting one of the 3 top awards at the sport's most important award event. Feels like as long as the same people remain in place, there'll be no change. Peter Gentle's comment to Lloyd after the 36-6 win last year sums their attitude up.
At this crucial time in the pass sales window, it feels like we could be managing the media better. We do seem to be a bit weird and controlling about our own press - this isn't new, but seems to be a persistent theme. Anyone have a different view?

| It's not just blunderside that shows an obvious bias. Hull Daily Mail's Fewey ( fire at Fewey) shows bias too, regularly slating FC.

But he doesn't even pretend to be a journalist, his page is more like something from Viz. Bet he carries his bollockks round in a wheelbarrow. We get a more than fair crack of the whip from the HDM overall in my view. Radio Humberside is a different story.

And he talks out of his a*se. The man should really be in a circus.
