Read it again. Where do you indicate anything else? It's a flat statement without any indication of the possibility of the situation being other than as stated.

Well said! In any kind of weather .... unless its cold or the team is losing .... in which case.....

Been a passholder for years and years and Might buy one this year,I say might ,because until I see some semblance of ambition at the club why bother.People say about us missing out on top 4 by 10 mins and finishing 6th,Rubbish !!! we missed out on top 4 and possibly higher by totally inept displays at places such as Wakey,Salford,Wrexham and Murreyfield,also not being able to score points when the position presented itself,
We need new signings,what are we getting,Probably Dowsey for another year [Cheaper}same applies to Radford,Also our front line Halfbacks HOPE they dont get injured again,Missed a few games last season due to Festivals and stuff but didnt miss many away games,think my Pass money could be better invested in my Glasto ticket.
Things will probably change and I will probably end up buying a pass as always,but I must say I have never felt so non plussed about a new season for years !!!!

In 51 met my future husband ,I was a Tigers supporter he a Hull f.c. we went to the Boulrvard one week and Boothferry park the next week but he soon knocked me into shape so it was bye bye soccer, and we are still supporting the mighty Black and Whites yes we have seen some rubbish and some great games but you love the game so much you take the good with the bad just like marrige

Absolutely.

All these histrionics we read every year from the drama queens saying they aren't going any more are boring.

You take the rough with the smooth, that is what sport is about. I bet at Cardiff in 2005 out of the 25,000 Hull supporters there that the people who enjoyed it the most were those who stuck by the club during those dark days in 1999.

Too fecking right. My absolutely favourite piece of wisdom is "The deeper sorrow carves into your soul, the more joy it can contain". Life (and in a smaller way, sport) is entirely about ups and downs and is nothing without contrast. Anyone would think we were on brink of relegation or administration. Part of us continuing going is precisely what you have described, for sure the highs are sweeter for experiencing the lows.

Wow, philosophy on RLFans

Great quote, Mrs B and very true, of course.

followed fc since 78-79 when we went unbeaten,ive never once thought about not following them,ive seen the good times and bad,good coaches and bad coaches,since we have been at the stadium ive had a pass and the same seat and that aint gunna change,id never call people if they choose not to go thats there choice,money is tight these days and if people arent happy then its there call.

My sentiments exactly (apart from the time bit, its about 93-94 for me, when I was 4-5 myself).

How many times have you said after a game, "Thats it I`m not going next match."
Next match comes,"I`ll give them one more chance."
Its like a drug,you need the fix.

Whilst this is fact, and I am one of those, the utter tripe we see on the pitch at times is a joke. What people need to realise is it is not just the fans that should embrace "in any kind of weather". it is the whole club.

I do not care if we get beat by 60 points, as long as the players give it a go. I have been there and done that as have many. The problem is that we;
a/ play in the best stadium in Sl (arguably - I think standing in Rl is a must)
b/ we are the most profitable side is SL
c/ We reached the grand final in 2006 and then what?

So, we should not be beaten by 60.
We should be smashing teams into oblivion at home
We should be passionate fans, but I think that the "crew" of 99 cannot be bothered with the toss we have to put up with week after week.

The club exists because of us. We pay for the clubs existence. The board, that whilst they try 100% in fc and try to make it great, they do not get "in any kind of weather". They do no get the ethos of the club.

As much as it pains me to say this. Hugdell is a fan. Whilst he has brought financial instability on rovers. look what he has done in a few years. We have Kath. She give's no two shiites about Hull as a team and that's a fact. I also think Rule is looking as this as a future career for him and nothing more.

In any kind of weather my ar5e. Its not the supporters who have the issue.

Of course you take the rough with the smooth?

Ever heard of 'love blinds'?
You can be so in love with someone that you refuse to see, hear and acknowledge that all they are after is your money. They can be full of flatteries and say all sorts of lovey dovey to your face.

Marriage is a 2 way commitment.
It is for both partners to 'put in' to the marriage for it to work.
When one partner is suffering and struggling, then the other will willingly go the extra miles to support both.

The problems start when one partner just sits around and takes the pi$$ out of the other. They are just in the relationship, to see what they can get out of it for themselves.

Wow...bit heavy this thread....

I support Hull because I am black & white through and through, that is all there is to it for me

There's a sort of saying I heard once about supporters, that said 'You don't pick the team, the team picks you'
I've supported the FC since the 78/79 season, and experienced the many lows and have shed a few tears over em it has to be said. But the highs when they do come along are fantastic.
All in all I'm glad Hull FC picked me
