Its the second time someone (earlier in the thread) has referenced the profession I ( as well as a few others on here) am in. I don't see the relevance of it. I am aware of many from all walks of working life who are ardent supporters of the club. I don't expect every follower of the club to attend every game as circumstances are different for all, but I find it difficult to take seriously criticism of the team, coach or the club from someone who actively says that they wont attend unless we are winning (and even then its touch and go).
Back on topic,
With Kelly out of the frame for the Salford game, I'd consider Cooke for a comback at 6 at the moment [sizeclearly this is a urine extraction[/size'"
I don't think anyone cares about what anyone on here does for a living unless people start claiming that following the club isn't a costly exercise which some simply can't afford

That's never been the issue, which I would have thought you would be aware of, and its not the issue in this situation. Its others who have brought this up.

I'm pretty sure you were recently claiming it wasn't that expensive to attend games and comparing it to premiership football

I never mentioned it wasn't expensive, but I did make the comparison to premier league football. RL is not as expensive as premier league football, yet they attract large attendances in certain areas of the country which are similar to Hull from the view point of employment.

I'm starting to think knockersbump and JTP are the same people, never a good word to say, belittling everyone else.

| Quote: Mrs Barista "Well in Rule's day it was £20 or so to get in on the gate so £40 for you and your good lady. How many children do you have for the bill to reach £150? Don't really get why you'd include the cost of food, surely you have to eat regardless of whether you go to a game?'"
Three kids, tea out, couple of beers, extortionate sweet costs at the KC - you know making a night of it rather than just turning up ten mins before after driving straight from home. We'd have a nice time then go watch FC and it'd ruin it so i thought id spend my money elsewhere at that time ok cockle

I know where youre coming from. Me and the missus used to start off our fc days by nipping to napoleans. Y'know, make a day of it. After a few weeks we realised it was costing us about £7000.00 just to watch us lose!! Ridiculous!
Until the prices are lowered we wont be coming back. Working mans game?? Pull the other one.

Are you? I'm sure the truth will dawn on you at some point

He was right in the end: |
|
| Plenty on here bigging Rule up like he was the greatest thing since sliced bread.
2 salary cap breaches, Reardon, Gleeson/Long and drugs. Banned from the cup due to playing unregistered players, Crocker (lack of homework on the deal before anyone get their kegs in a twist) Brough and Faumouina, Kear and Cooke. Brawling in the bars on Prinny Av.
How on earth was he given shares in the club, I'll never know
Some managed to see right through him, and the other cronies.

All men are created equal, some work harder in preseason.

| Don't have to make a day of it, it's not cheap to follow sports nor could you convince any outsider it's a good investment of your time and money. My only expense on Hull FC in the past couple of years has been season pass, bar cup semi and Wembley last year, seeing as I decided to go spend £27k on a bit of paper to tell people I can fix things. I know I'm lucky to live in walking distance to the KCOM, but it doesn't have to be a huge expense either way.
Back on topic, Rule always seemed slimey and I never liked him, and I remember explaining the Hetheringtons set up to a mate and it was one of those moments where you hear yourself say something and realise how ridiculous it is.

When did we get banned from the CC (not defending Rule, but I must have been asleep that year?)

We weren't. 2008 we got to the final but fielded Jamie Thackray in the early rounds when he wasn't registered. Got a big fine.
