Well, probably three-quarters.

What would these people think if they had been brought up as (eg) Workington fans ? or poor old Bramley ?

FFS, life ain't that bad

Strangely enough i am still enjoying hull away days, well apart from maybe an hour or so!! for me its the home games i am struggling to motivate myself to get to, have'nt missed one yet but think i'll need a good friday feeling this week to inspire me, i know the last couple of seasons have been poor to say the least but the negative vibes that start almost from kick off at the kc turn it into a souless place, granted its a lovely stadium but it seems unless a derby game there is virtually no amosphere at all

I did indeed. Everyone has an opinion and is quite rightly allowed one. Just seems to me that some people base there arguments against the club/players/performances without actually attending games.

I have no moral high ground to stand and i don't like the position we find ourselves in anymore than anyone else. Fortunately/unfortunately i can get to all the games and can make an unbalanced judgement as good as the next fan, but it's based on observation and i don't spend ALL my time on here whininging about it.

BTW TV games are easy to comment on though that wasn't the point.

Read the post again. You have other reasons not to go, therefor it's not aimed at you.

I appreciate the effort it took to reply though.

You're right, everyone has the right to express their opinion, that is regardless of being at the game, listening on radio or being at the game.

There will always be some who just whinge and some who are more balanced, that what makes a forum.

Looking forward to our big push up the league myself



















Well........eternally optimistic me y'know!

To be fair TLJ, I had loads of fun going away to Whitehaven and Workington and watching a poor team lose plenty of games. Even then though, the rugby was not as dour a product as it is now. We used to play some interesting stuff, we always had at least two heroes to hold in high regard and camaraderie between the fans that actually followed us back then was immense. It was in fact my happiest times as a fan in this period.

I know the new fans that have started supporting us since we've been successful can be annoying with their expectations of glory but it's not about us losing, it's HOW we're losing. Paying £23 to sit in the sterile KC is a hefty blow in itself, but to pay that to sit through the dirge we're currently being served up takes the biscuit.

Fair point mate, and thanks for a balanced answer too !

So why start a thread about attending games if it's OK to watch on TV and comment too, which I would probably think most people on this forum would have done.

Just admit it, you think your opinion means more because you attend more games. That's your real point, and now are backtracking.

I would certainly respect the opinion of someone who goes to all the games over an occasional/armchair fan who likes to bitch a lot on forums.

What if the person who goes to all the games is an idiot and does not
know one end of the field from another ?

What if the person who does not attend all the games is a grade 3 coach and has 30years of rugby experience?

Surely it's all relative and each person should be viewed on their merit.
