emailed to all Hull FC board and Carl Minns as follows;

I don't know where to begin with this issue, but feel I have to e-mail you as this is an embarrassment to Hull FC and the city of Hull, please please can you address this ongoing and awful issue before the next season begins. This is taken from the Black and Whites website and a number of posts:

I hope that the morons who derived pleasure from mimicking the gentleman in the wheelchair with cerebal palsy feel proud of themselves . He is a lifelong Hull fan whose brother actually played for the first team , after a very enjoyable stadium tour he was subjected to this abuse , resulting in the removal of 2 of the group , this totally ruined his match day experience . Going to the KC is one of the few pleasures that he has in life and had actually volunteered to sit down there to allow a more disabled supporter access to his normal place on the special platform.
So once again well done I hope that you are all very proud of yourselves .


Unfortunately this was not an isolated incident and there will be people including myself sadly who will be seriously thinking of not returnin g to the KC next year.

It just breaks my heart to hear that this gentleman has been put through this, these fans need dealing with and not ignoring and I for one will not ignore it. Please let him know that these people are an ignorant mindless minority and its just a shame that they put a smear on the name of Hull FC and the fans who support the Club. The only problem is the Club will need help from the fans to name and shame every one of them, no excuses anymore.




The hostility in the KC on Friday was the worst I have known it and I have attended a Derby there, after hearing this I know what I have to do and I think as fans you need to think about it too.

Reading that OP upset me simply because I know how hard the staff at FC work to give people a good and safe experience at the ground, the problem is it is not just one or two people that give FC a bad name, its a group, a section of the crowd and the Club will need the support of the fans to deal with this

I can only now give a little information as to our problems that Friday night as the man concerned has been in Court and is now at Her Majesties pleasure for the next 3 months for attacking us with cans of butane gas cans and threatened us with lighting them. We hope the repair bill of about £800 to our car might be met by Criminal Compensation Scheme otherwise we will have to foot the bill to have it put right. The fear, pain and the trauma felt by me and my husband, Mum and friend will take longer to heal. I'm just pleased now that my husband managed to apprehend the culprit until the Police arrived. As you say I have been to the KC many times but never have I felt like this and I just feel so very sorry for the many FC fans who do not deserve to be associated with these idiots. I also feel very sorry for Hull FC as a Club to have to deal with these people.


I am so sorry for your awful experience, I have to admit it has really upset me as my mum is disabled, if anything similar happened to her I'd be heartbroken.
Why as a club have we not dealt with this issue, it's embarrasing at nearly every game, we should be using the CCTV available and banning these idiots from returning. I also agree that making the area reserved would help.
I shall e-mail the club, SMC and whoever else I can think of as I can't tolerate this carrying on any longer
=0 D

I would like asssurance from the club and Hull City Council and the SMC (of whom I can't find an e-mail address for) that action and precautions will be taken to ensure this does not continue.

It's about time something was done about that lot.



But please don't sling em in south stand...

Scumbags deserve to be banned for life. Hope the said gent in the wheelchair is able to put it down to ignorant, ill-educated, immature idiots.

We all know that. Lets hope the club and SMC agree.

the true fan in the wheelchair who was taunted by the brainless chavs in the NE corner,probably has more understanding of the game in his little finger then those village idiots have in their miniscule brains<if>.the club anounce before every game ,foul languidge will not be tolerated,but in row N e7,there is a chap whose mouth is absolutly shocking,and do we see a steward saying anything to him ? no.so why are they employed if they are afraid to confront the perpetrators???

Close it, sit them among the East Stand faithful and be 'educated'.
