Wow so every club would be asking for pledges and the RFL owns all the grounds

place of evil, you made the right decision

wow so we are in a crisis and spending £9.5m on a new school which we do not need how about try use that money to solve other problems the government have no clue what so ever

Should have called it Threepenny High School, or Johnny Whiteley School

Don't worry - it won't happen.

I am going to win the euro millions, buy the site and stop anyone building on it.

When Ar_ehole Allam makes more threats I am going to build a new all seater 20K stadium for Hull and donate it to the club free of charge.

Well it's a nice thought and although I've got nowt against the KC wouldn't it be good to play at The Boulevard (but a decent stadium) again ?

Then get off yer butt and get a petition going or something cos its a great idea.

These new schools with there modern architecture are thought to make the children espire to great things.The only thing you need is a water tight square box with some windows a couple of hole for ventilation.But mainly top rate teachers and ethics installed into the kids.The new schools are great to look at but are staffed by newly qualified teachers.My lad goes to Trinity,a great school for results but is falling to pieces.It goes to show you don't need new buildings,just teachers who want to teach and kids that want to learn.

What about the Hull Free College.

I suppose a good comparison of these new academy schools is, Its OK having a KC stadium but if your coach is Agar and your pupils are Thorman, Thackery and Raynor

We made the mistake of sending ours to Hessle, and that was a big mistake, our girl is exceptional at sports as well as academically, and Hessle had nothing to offer her, she did 3 terms at Hessle before she started at Sirius, and how fantastic this school is, like you, when I went round, I wanted to stay and learn, if the kids dont make the most of this school, then its their own fault! Great to say, my daughter is heading all the sports, football, rugby, etc and shes an expert learner, (shes by no means a swat, shes a gobby little mare, who speaks her mind, but the teachers encourage this, but learning her to be outspoken in the right way) all this is down to the teachers and their dedication in making the school a success!

£9.5 mil worth of work for Builders and Tradesmen.......definitely a bad thing......

In many respects the type of building shouldn't matter it is the fundamentals that have been badly wrong in Hull and most of the problems stem directly from those running the system AND more importantly the parents & kids who don't give a flying one.

Some of the kids never have a chance because their parents were losers/drop outs and their parents before them, so the parents are in no way capable of supporting their kids education or upbringing for that matter and are not interested in disciplining them because it is too much effort. So you have a vicious cycle that is hard to break but great teachers with back up from strong heads can help but they in turn get screwed over by poor LEA's hence why more & more 'Free' schools are popping up to get away from the control that is killing the chances that kids have.
I was lucky, I left Hull to join the forces as a teen, settled in a nice town and luckily my son went to a fantastically run school (though the other options weren't all that in any case it was our closest). The building was a patched up job (& still is) rebuilt around the same time as the old Branny High that I went too yet the school got 76% 5 A-C the year my son went in. Catchment area was a very large mixture of affluent & not so affluent, certainly many came from isolated villages, housing estates etc.

TBH I'm not even sure the old Bvd. site is an ideal location given the surrounding area. if Hull wants regeneration and have communities were the people can feel proud about where they live they need to flatten the whole lot, rebuild and make sure those who were living there before get a chance to move back again whilst improving the services/amenities. Personally I can't see that happening any time soon.
I really hope that whatever is done for the area it makes a positive difference to peoples lives, not just for them but for the feeling of the city as a whole as I oft get the impression the city is on its knees at times

Who's paying for it?
