I think he's right. With every passing visit to Wembley that we fail to win comes a bigger sense of despair for some of us. I personally am not interested so much in a Grand Final win. What I and many like me want is a Wembley win. Maybe you had to be emotionally involved with Wembleys 80, 82, 83 & 85 to get that. I say maybe.
80 vs that lot which we will forever be reminded of. 82 when Sammy did kick the crucial goal. 83 when we should have won and then 85 which we are always told was the best final ever. It hurts like hell. The only final we've been to since then that I didn't expect us to win was 2008. With the exception of 05 it has been incredibly heartbreaking and boy do they love to remind us.

As for wanting them to win. Do me a favour Mr bump. You've been taking in too much Hertfordshire air. Do as I did and get away and move to Sussex it will unscramble your mind

Goodness that's a whole decade ago, hard to remember.

I googled Wembley winners, no mention of you. Other search engines are available still nothing.

Well if 10 years is a long time ago, how about 35. Almost pre-history.

Why?

Serious question as I've never understood this. All that bothers me is winning or losing, not the venue.

I obviously can't speak for anyone but myself. Personally I have lived in and around London since 1990. In the past 26 years I have tried spreading the word of Rugby League & especially Hull FC. Most people that are aware of RL know Wigan they seem to think everyone and everything revolves around Wigan which in all honesty when I moved down it did.
In the last 26 years I have missed 2 finals and not missed one at Wembley. 1 at Twickenham & one in Scotland have been missed. I will not be going this year.

I absolutely love Wembley. Towers or arch. It's a magical place. I certainly don't subscribe to the northern feeling (from some) of why wasn't it in the north. As a kid growing up I dreamed of playing at Wembley for Hull FC. That was and always will be the pinnacle for me. I didn't make it as a player. I do though want to see it as a fan. Winning the cup in 82 was special. Winning in 05 was amazing. But for me personally seeing my club win in my favourite stadium in my favourite city in front of many of my southern friends but more importantly surrounded by my family who have supported hull FC through thick and lots of thin would be a dream come true. Until that day Hull FC have my undivided attention. I have though vowed that when it happens I will be able to rest easy and probably end my fanatical support. So maybe the longer it takes the better it will be.

That's my story. It's all about the venue. Some won't understand others will get it. But I won't change until it happens. I just hope it happens for my parents as well.
