Actually - the 5000 that went ARE the Old Faithful, and we DO attend games in any kind of weather!!
The missing 6000 can throw around endless seemingly justifiable excuses, but at the end of the day it's embarrassing that the rest of the league saw us playing one of our most important games this season in an empty stadium! |

| Quote: carl_spackler "I and those I go with are regular attendees and Saints was the last straw to put us off, even though I fancied us to win. I've also been to watch rugby in worse weather than last night (I don't think anything will surpass West Hull at a snowy Boulevard). It's not really about the winning and the weather for me, it's about whether or not I feel I'm being taking for a mug or valued as a fan.
I agree with Mrs B that the team deserved more there based upon that performance, but then it's more a reflection of how people have felt about the season (and recent years) as a whole, and on that basis it's pretty understandable to me. Maybe we've finally reached the tipping point where enough fans just aren't going to/in a position to keep handing money over blind-faithfully without seeing enough in return. Possibly a bit of a culture shock for the club needing to actually earn a crowd instead of taking it for granted. I don't think they can grumble about that, it's taken 5 years to reach such a point so we've stuck by them, it's just high time they started to repay us, the relationship between team and fans is supposed to be reciprocal but has leant too much in one direction for a while.'" |

It was embarrassing getting to one of the 2 showpiece events of the season and putting in a performance of a park side in attack. If people not wanting to fork out for more of it is embarrassing, then like that cup final performance it's embarrassment of the club's own making. |

we have had that all season!
it was a poor effort from hull, but we know that you turn up week in week out just like we do,just that for this particular game, given the various factors,a lot didn't.
we get criticised constantly for our crowds but yet none of the reasons given for poor crowds wash for us,i hope it does for you
if we play you on Thursday I hope both sets of fans turn out for what could be a cracker! |

Tried to reply with quote, but it just posted the quote.
Basically agreed with your assessment. Would probably have gone last night if I'd had the money, but without much joy in my heart. |

The FC attendance is a one off. Yours is the norm. |

He can buy them when the he wants.
If people don't want to go to the game they don't have to.

Maybe you quoted the wrong post? Or maybe you just have English comprehension issues? Because I didn't knock anybody about anything. I just suggested it was unlikely that there were more fans there than the official attendance. |
