hullfc.com/Home.aspx Semi up Looking quite good. Hull FC are delighted to introduce supporters to the brand new Hull FC website. With the media landscape ever changing, the Black and Whites have launched a brand new website which is bigger and better than ever before. NEW for 2011 are the brand new video profiles for the current first team squad, a host of new blogs, new look match sections with previews, reports and stats and the opportunity to pledge your support as The 18th Man. If all that wasn’t enough, there’s some brand new video content in the world of hospitality and Mark O’Meley will soon be providing some exclusive video hints and tips for the young and old alike. And it doesn’t stop there either, as also on the way this year is a brand new match centre, which having been the first of it’s kind in Super League last season, will now be the most detailed and up to date match portal available online for Hull FC matches. Finally, we’ve saved the best until last! Throughout 2011, Hull FC will become the first club to launch mobile applications for not only the iPhone, but for Blackberry and Android phones too! An extensive amount of resource and development has gone into all three products to ensure all fans have access to the new service, not just iPhone users and for that reason, there is no doubting it will become the most comprehensive app in Super League, including a live match centre and video player. All the usual features are still there too for new site, including a new look HullFC.TV service that has been enhanced for 2011.

Not for me

I've managed to get it up. So to speak.

I wonder if that will be the actual view from the terraces, or the sanitised, club-endorsed view from the terraces.

I reckon its a made up name, sounds like it, Kath or Ja Rool in disguise.

if you read his first entry it is deffiently the clubs view

In another of our new blogs for the 2011, the voice of the fans, Phil Back, gives us his take on the new season. Throughout the year he will be conveying the opinion of those that grace the terraces!

Another big take up of season tickets by the FC fans appears to have seen our ticket sales up there around last year’s record levels again. If a measure of our loyalty as fans is needed then you only have to look at how our season ticket sales compare with the average total gate of some clubs in Super League.


Not that I am gloating of course, but it has to be a glowing endorsement to the passion and long suffering commitment of the fans around the terraces of the KC. I know that the club continue to tell us just how appreciative they are of our support, and we should be proud of it as well, because we must be as a body of people one of the most loyal sets of fans in the game.


This closed season we have made four new signings as the club attempts to consolidate. It’s sometimes easier to see how you can get loads of season ticket holders when you have been out there splashing the cash on 4 or 5 big name imports or have a recent playing record like say the Saints, Wigan or Leeds fans have enjoyed.


It’s also easy to stay away in your droves when times are hard like the good people of Salford and London do on a regular basis despite the best efforts of those clubs and their players and officials to provide first class entertainment. In fact it’s probably easiest to commit when your club drops their prices to a ridiculously low level as a ‘Loss Leader’, like Bradford have done this year.


Here at the FC, however we are just fans, who love our club, sometimes we feel aggrieved and badly done by, because as fans that’s out right, we pay our money and are entitled to our opinions but in the end we just believe in supporting our team ‘In Any Kinda Weather’ and at times like these when the fans are experiencing hard times and have varying opinions on our playing record, I am still just as proud to be part of that great community.


These are tough times but loyalty is a great thing in a fan base and perhaps something that the newer clubs in our competition will find is hard to develop in the short term at least.

It is something that is historically built on the bed rock of years and years of celebrating isolated but glorious success in a desert of general mediocrity and disappointment.


That’s what the last 50 odd years at Hull FC have been like for those fans who have weathered it. As a fan I know once said, it’s invariably the bad times that make the good times so good, and though gates will fluctuate with our on field fortunes, there are many of us who stick with it just for that reason!


Even in our seventies after a life time of trudging the country watching the Airlie Birds we just can’t bear to be anywhere else when the FC are playing!

Looks very good, better info on the youngsters and hullfc.tv on the iPhone/blackberry is great.

OMG pass the sick bucket, typed with one hand twisted behind his back

More spin

Gone very aussie

Where did he get the idea that we people may stay away?



Water! Water!

I appreciate that levels of cynicism are at a record high, but I'm not sure what everyone's problem with that blog piece is. Reads like it was written by a fan to me, and while a lot won't agree with the sentiment there are plenty who post on here who would.

Plus anyone who is expecting a highly critical piece to be published on the club's own website is living in la la land.
