If common sense prevails next season, and the A teams are introduced again, I wonder were the venue would be, it will be nice to see a healthy competition running side by side of the first team, as a Boulevarder it was another reason to get to see any returning players or up and coming younger ones, don’t suppose the KC would be available, but it would be great if possible.
Also what days times etc, think Hull used to do a Thursday/Fri night if memory serves right.

does anyone know where City play their reserve games?

=#FF0000Please refrain from using that term here. Thank you. Karen.

Bang a stand up on county road , jobs a good un

Probably go again with Brantingham on Saturday afternoon, free for passholders, decent beer and covered stand.

got to be kc on a sunday afternoon.stop all this nonsense of having to travel half way across Yorkshire to see an a team game.

Maybe Catalans can fund all the "A" teams, they've been using the original exchange rate of 1.45 pounds to the euro (today’s price is 1.11) since 2006, a tidy addition to their salary cap (13% ?).

not their fault if the rfl fluffed it up (again), maybe some of these chairman should be more honest and open how they can afford all these players at their own clubs


would like to see the a team play back at chants ave or the training ground

.....Current cap rules explicitly say £1,900,000 for British based clubs and €2,394,000 for clubs with the euro as its currency.

Can you not imagine what it would cost. Allam would have a field day.

Or just scrap the salary cap it hasn’t stopped clubs going bust or at least up it

Or leave it there so those of us who travel all the way across East Yorkshire to watch first team games, don't have to travel as far to see the A team

Yes, as a club representing the City of Hull, we should cater for those outside of the City!

Scrapping would mean the rich clubs getting richer and poor clubs going bust trying to keep up, Wigan and Bradford come to mind???

I live in a West Hull village and attended the previous A team games, Brantingham is an excellent ground and was well attended. It’s only 15 minutes from the town centre, unless there’s a bloody accident on the A63.

I like Brantingham, and have even walked there. I still maintain we should play in Hull though. Brantingham and Bishop Burton both killed any walk up crowds, despite both having many benefits.

A club who's catchment area includes vast swathes of Yorkshire, and beyond. I appreciate that the largest percentage of FC supporters may come from within the city, but a large number don't.

but the team is hull fc! so there for play in hull!

Indeed they do. However to stage A team games in the KCom would be prohibitively expensive, so they should be played wherever the facilities exist that are available at the right cost. If that happens to be in rural East Yorkshire, then so be it.

If it's in Hull then that's fine too, I was merely stating that it doesn't HAVE to be in Hull.

So the club should only cater for people who live in Hull. What a stupid attitude.

And obviously Withernsea.
Forget those fancy West Hull villages.

We used to be friends

Will you be running a joint reserve side with Hull kr?

Homophobia is not welcome here.

=#FF0000Indeed, OP edited. Karen.

You are probably right regarding Mr Allam, not just the costs the SMC would request, but any sort of negotiations with these chaps seem fruitless, as our Tiger neighbors will attest to, they are having there club dismantled which is a crying shame, whilst I would like the Ateams fixtures played at our home ground, it will I suppose be an alternative venue Brantingham, Costello, West Hull, Chants ave who knows, I am sure Radders and AP will have already discussed it.

I am sat typing in Perenco offices at little Easington.
