There is a possibility that the Hull Derby at the Magic Weekend will be switched with one of the other games, probably the Widnes V Salford one after Sundays result to avoid a clash with the FA Cup final.

The rfl have confirmed the game will not be moved!


So much for a forward thinking organisation, as some fans have posted, they may stay in pubs or at home and watch the final, regardless if they have bought tickets

If you support Hull & City and you can get a ticket for the FA cup final but would rather watch fc v kr let me know and I'll buy the ticket from you at way above ticket price.

RFL wont change it.

shame as I would like to have watched the final

That’s surprising, I know Sky were amenable to the change. Though I can understand the RFL’s reasoning, m not sure how much difference it would make to fans of other clubs.

To be honest I can understand the RFL's view, if they swapped the Hull Derby and Salford-Widnes, all that would happen is several thousand Hull fans would decamp to the nearest big screen or pub on the final hooter, watch the FACup final then return for Wigan-Leeds or go home (depending on who's lost!)

so you'd end up with an even emptier than usual stadium at 5pm, instead of the crowd growing to a climax for the Wigan-Leeds game.

Confirmation the game doesn't switch; www.hulldailymail.co.uk/Hull-Cit ... story.html Of course, if the FA Cup kicked off at 3pm like it's supposed to, there'd be no issue...

Or maybe quite sensible. I couldn't give a about city and there are many others that feel the same.

You have no right to call me or anyone else names.

If you post idiotic comments, don't be surprised when people call you an idiot.

You care that little you thought you'd take the time to tell us how much you're 'not bothered'. People can be equally as supportive of both teams, it's not that difficult, so the 'half a fan' comment is idiotic as well.

Why can't you be happy for their supporters? Like the majority of them were for us. If you do support both teams you'd be stupid to go to the rugby IMO.

That's your opinion, and I think it is idiotic, and you yourself are an idiot in my eyes.

Keep those posts ticking over eh

Never mind, shirts come in different sizes

Leeds n Wigan go to 5 and we kick off at 715 should`nt be a problem should it? I mean with them two being the biggest supported clubs with fans that love the league game then they are all gonna be in the ground anyway, are`nt they?????

Quite a few fans booked train tickets though, I know of about 15 leaving Manchester around 8.

Why would the RFL let teams/fans of other clubs down who have already made arrangements about their own fixtures just so that Hull/Hull KR fans can watch the soccer FA cup final ? They would have been wrong to do that and it's right that they haven't. Circumstances that couldn't have been predicted have arisen and people in Hull have a clear choice as to how they deal with that.
