The coach was attacked in exactly the same place as last year, about half a mile out of the ground heading towards the motorway. This is two years running that the same coach has had the misfortune of being stuck in Hull with holes in the windows and dents on the side. Thankfully the windows were double glazed/reinforced so the girl who was headheight with one of the smash sites was not hurt... I dread to think what would of happened if the brick had gone through.

We do not believe they were Hull fans, however at this moment in time we are seriously reconsidering whether we will come back to Hull with our coaches.

We are home safe now, no thanks to the low-lifes who have let everyone down.

Agree with this post 100%. Let's not get into a slanging match about other things.

Thanks for that, seen as so many others have jumped to conclusions

As a Hull fan I can only apologise for the mindless morons and rest assured they were not hull fans just typical scumbags as even I had my car bricked as I was driving home wearing a hull shirt

Unfortunately this is part of today's mindless youth all over the UK but that's another story

To be fair nobody knew where it had happened, apart from those who saw the incident. Given that we were leaving the Hull ground and the history of events when trying to get away from there it is perhaps fair to think at first that it may be Hull fans. It is the same conclusion that people would come to no matter what stadium it happens at.
They may have been Hull fans, we don't know they ran off too quick for anyone to be able to identify them.
Either way it is a shame for Hull FC, Hull as a city and rugby league in general that this happens, it tarnishes what was a great away day and has put a lot of people off returning for fear of being hurt.. Something that the game really doesn't want to happen.

I'm really sorry to hear about your car, hope everyone was okay.

@tomplatt8: hull fans throwing bricks at wigans coach is why i love been a hull fan! #wearehullfcwedontgivea

Take a look at twitter, perhaps someone can have a word with this nice young man

Must be true if its on twitter...have a word? takes me all my time qouting on here.If i could get my hand on them.id teach the little gits a lesson...sick to the back teeth of other fans calling us scum due to some braindead chav.

Maybe that should be Tom Pratt.

During 2006 football world cup, a large group of Polish supporters attacked a group of local's. They were wearing England shirts resulting in the press reporting it was England fans causing trouble because, as we all know, there is previous and no-one would having any problem believing it.

The point I'm trying to make is the scumbags who did this are probably using the fact that there has been problems in the past to get this sort of reaction. We all know that your average fc fan has no interest in anything but the rugby but these mindless idiots will put people off travelling to support their team because 'Hull is unsafe'. Very sad.

I hope the police will be knocking on this lowlife's door soon and I hope those involved will be dealt with by hanging .

Despite what some hull fans say that the people who threw bricks were not hull fans,this seems to prove otherwise.!

It doesn't. All it proves is that some yob likes to think it was Hull fans and takes some sort of pleasure from it... As if its some sort of status symbol being able to pick up a house brick and use it as a weapon.
As I said before; it has happened two years in a row in exactly the same place and I have no doubt it was the same people... Who were not in visible Hull FC shirts.

In West Hull its a tradition !

He also says in another tweet:

@cambibs glad i dint go to watch that shower of e! i dont care if there young or not!

So he isn't really a fan. Everyone in Hull has an allegiance to a team, even the scum.

Whilst many will hope Hutchie, that it wasn't Hull FC fans, the sad reality is that some 'residents' of Hull have done this and it makes the idea of a return trip distasteful.

I sincerely hope that the people who did this are caught and given a leathering, whomever they support. However, until this is stamped out then Hull will be a less-than-pleasant away day.

Grow up.

just mention warrington, fighting, hull kr fans!!

Ive never been to Hull for an RL game and never would.

Not heard anything good about the place.
Sorry to the genuine nice fans but what Ive heard of Hull is not great.
Shame because the stadium looks great.

This sickens me, the mentality of these people is beyond sub human IMO, given what happened last year i suppose the police didn't think to do anything about it to try to avoid the same thing, likely in the same area as well no doubt.
A simple route change that wouldn't have cost no more than 3-5 minutes would likely have avoided this or even having some form of visual presence along the known route.
If that's what it needs, then that's what it needs and our club should pay for the extra policing AFTER the match so that fans can feel safe to visit the KC.
And has been seen this season & every other season fans of all clubs (barring London & Catalans?) getting involved in skirmishes on the terraces & outside of the stadia as well.

I love coming back to Hull for games & visiting the folks and I've never experienced any touble, however this is one of the reasons I couldn't wait to get away from Hull in the late 80s, the thing is though that this type of thing is happening everywhere not far from you wherever you live so people coming the high & mighty really need to start looking on their own doorstep as well.

I just happen to be lucky that I live somewhere where it doesn't happen that often comparatively

Yes everyone was ok thanks Laura just a cracked windscreen. Unfortunately these kids are a product of today's society & it's not helped by having a poor outfit in humberside police. Hope everyone got home safely.
I will be writing to our club & police chief constable ( for what good it will do) to at least try to get something done to stop this.

100% agree, whether who ever done this is a FC or not, could you blame away fans for not turning up when scum bags do this? And either way the scummers who did this where from Hull.

Does it make any difference if the person throwing the brick is a Hull FC fan or just a local that hates anyone from outside Hull?

If it's a Hull FC fan doing the bricking then I suppose its a bad thing for RL, but if you are a victim of that kind of attack then its probably a small issue as to whether they are Hull fans or not!

I went to uni in Hull and loved every minute of my 4 years there. I still have some good mates there. Such a shame that a few idiots are putting people off going, the stadium is a fantastic venue and the majority of people are friendly. I went in to a few pubs with my Wigan shirt on after games and received nothing but a bit of banter.

Sorry to hear this. Had our coach done a few times in the past. Seems be a lottery as to which coach gets done.
