Nice to see the Leeds board stating the south stand has NEVER sung "you're going down like your trawlers"

I remember them doing it as I was there - it was around the time of the inquest into The Gaul


Also, the first league game at Headingley after the 'McAlpine incident' my Dad as part of his role with HISA arranged for some Hull fans to parade a banner around the pitch apologising for the actions of the people that went onto the pitch. Hetherington pulled the idea at the last minute as he couldn't guarantee their safety

I reckon you're probably right. It's not like he shot off down the tunnel as soon as the hooter went.

What a shock. Are they still defending the nasty little homophobic lout?

To the hilt

Now calling out anyone who said he may have been guilty!

He's about as innocent as Oscar Pistorius.

Made me chuckle that

Thinking of posting it on the Leeds board, just to sit and watch the meltdown.

Its all banter as they say

I've worled the turnstiles at Headingly, admittedly quite a number of years ago (late '80's early 90's) I used to wear my Hull shirt which you could see under my coat. I was on South Stand when I was threatened (and not banter btw) along the lines of if they see me in the crowd I would be set upon, the police intervened and I was told by the police not to wear my shirt again on the turnstiles for my own safety. Never sung it my ar$e.

Don't worry, I've put them right on that.

Definitely pre-SL era when I heard it though.

Living & working in Leeds & having friends who support Cas, Wakey and Bradford there's one thing that unites us all and that's a total dislike of Leeds Rhinos.

You have some very forgetfull fans, ta all the same

No worries.

I'll have to put up with several personal attacks as a consequence though.

In fact it's already kicked off by a moronic tag team consisting of Gotcha and Keith Senior's angst-ridden and idiotic elder bro.

GUFFAW, etc.

I'm sure I'll cope.

If it's before super league it could be before some peoples time, the posts i read was people saying they hadn't personally heard it, rather than a definitive never happened.
