Why don't you go and watch City because your contribution to Rugby League is pointless.

Season ticket holder and proud of it!

City would not have to play away the weekend of the non international all they needed to do was tell the FL/PL that they would have to play on a sunday if the fixtures popped up a home fixture for that weekend.

Its not rocket science, they do it all the time during the regular RL season, FC will play on a Friday/Saturday/Sunday depending on City or Sky. Games are moved by Sky at a whim for television, Duffen just did not want the good people of Hull to have an international end of.

I was thinking a bit more bigger picture on the basis its a community facility. The lack of concerts at the stadium since Duffen took over affects more than just B&W fans.

no need for the edit.

He has made it perfectly clear with his general distain

Just for the record, does anyone know what fixture they offered the KC?

World Champions.....New Zealand.

And do you think it would have been a 25,000 sell out?

bet it woulod have got at least 20k, worth putting it on

I don't really understand your position on this point. 20,0000, 22,0000 or 25,0000 it could have been a profit making event in addition to City's home games not in replacement of one.

Not only that it would have spotlighted the KC as a venue, Hull as a city and RL's importance and standing within the community. How can you not see this?

They sold out their full nationwide tour in hours, but like most bands, are mostly doing arena's as opposed to stadiums. I'm going to see them on Tuesday!

Kings of Leon would be ace, and they are now more of a stadium band and now have a wide audience.

Both these bands sold out their previous Hull gigs in a few minutes.

Pink is rubbish IMO.

What are you talking about, I only asked if people think it would have been a sell-out. I think 19 to 20k would be about right.

Hey shags. Just jumping in to say I for one would put my name down on any petition or such like you had going.

Interesting to see on Hull SL's forum Wilf Rosenburg telling them all that they were not offered a share of SMC or a place on its board. This is completley and utterly untrue. Richardson and Hetherington were offered an equal share but had to raise a bond and this proved beyond them. That is why the whole lot was funded by Pearson and he sold his interest in it to Duffen at the time of the takeover of Hull City. As far as I recall,Richo (the saviour) sat on his fat butt until the stadium was built and then moved his paperwork over in a cardboard box. It is also worth remembering that he pushed and pushed for the stadium to have a capacity of only 15000 but wiser heads overuled him. Obviously I am better connected than Wilf in this matter.

Wilf is just a sock loving mouth piece for Uncle Kath
