| Got dragged to the Boulevard in the mid 60's by my Mum, Dad and Nanna who all stood in threepenny. Was only about 7 at the time and playing on the hill at the Gordon Street end held more excitement for me (stayed away from threepenny stand because it stank). I used to like waiting for half time when the gates opened and everyone surged in to watch the second half for free. Only really took an interest in the early seventies and it went from there and i've never looked back, been some good, bad and dreadful times but it's in the blood so will always be a black and white.

| 1961. 5 year old and like FC50 enjoyed playing on Gordon st hill more than the games. It was against the dobbins and I can remember even now the fight some young kids had with the dobbins fans behind the hill in the thick mud. Not sure who won the game though. Still got a rotting program from that game somewhere in the loft.

| 1969 Yorkshire Cup final at Headingley against Featherstone. After that it was back to reality and a mostly empty Boulevard, which I used to walk around and around during the games. Early memories include Len Casey's debut and a try by Kenny Foulkes who seemingly tackled and engulfed by four or five defenders at the (new) scoreboard end, all of a sudden stuck his arm out of the mass of players and plonked the ball down for a try. Haven't a clue who they were playing, but happy memories.

| The 100% season - '78/'79. First game was vs Blackpool. I think the score was 8-7.

| 70. Started watching along with Dad, 3 uncles, an auntie, 2 cousins and my brother. We all stood on Gordon Street end and watched the likes of Gittoes on the right and Ivor Watts on the left, so I would guess that would be around 1950. I'm still as daft aboout the boys as I was then. I almost forgot my Grandad.

| 20 years old, been a season ticket holder since 2004
First game in 2000, Challenge Cup QF against Wigan if i remember rightly?
thought it was different considering the only rugby i had ever watched was the 6 nations and was really into football and Hull City.
Watched FC on a number of occasions over the next 3 years including the final game at the Boulevard and a memorable game against Bradford in which we were down and beat needing 3 or 4 tries, we got them and then they scored a drop goal. that game was when i really took a liking to the game.
2004 was when i really got to understand the game more and even though i was fairly new to the sport I could tell we were a good team that year and consistent and would say is when I got 'hooked' and somewhere down the line converted my dad from union to league

| First game was the 1980 cc final i was 10 at the time and my abiding memory was abide with me being sung cannon and ball providing entertainment and the fact that we run out of time to win:). I followed Hull then up until 85 where i joined the Royal Navy and for the next 24 years it was when i was on leave i managed to get to games. I was privilidged enough to watch kemble ohara leulei and the amazing peter stirling. still go as often as i can working shifts and always keeping the faith.

| Think I was 7 and it was a 7s/9s tournament at boulevard in 85, we lost to Fev I believe in the semi and they won it. Started going after that on scoreboard end (waiting in Griffin car park whilst my dad had a couple cos kids weren't allowed in! But only really got hooked two seasons later when I moved from the hill to threepenny.

The Seven Seas Sevens?
We held that for two or three years, enjoyed those tournaments.
