Used to go with my dad - can't remember if I was with him that day but I know he was. Shortly aftwerwards he became one of the new board.

I was there with Michael Crocker.

OOooh, there'll be letters!

Dunno i was only 3 coming upto 4 lol

Yer lol .The after match buffet , Dont them years roll on ,eh ? . Guess i never paid to get in aswell .

Wasnt those dark days ? . This new breed dont know they are born .

Can we have some hard hitting proof

Who was we playing ?



Started going with my dad around that time so i was probably there.

That was against Huyton just after we had signed Clarkey from New Hunslet and Bill Ramsey had arrived from Bradford! There was a place at the bottom of that terrace in Carrington Street behind the St Johns hut with the wheels on it, where you could actually get in over the barbed wire!! By heck they were tough timesthough !!


983 there and so was I. The previous all time low was 1,243 against Dewsbury in 1971 which I missed because I had Mumps! So the game you mention certainly was a low point! The introduction of speedway in 1972 probably saved us from going out of existance back then, the Vikings could get gates of 4-5 thousand people in and they paid us around £4,000 a year!

Ban em from the bus Tony!

Thanks for the giving the game away Wilf.This post will now probably eclipse R****s away support

Sorry

I was there, from the very early 70's never missed a home game. Used to go to most away games too in those days. since i can remember only ever missed 2 home games......quarter final of john player against saints in 75/76 season and last home game i missed was against .....GATESHEAD cos i was on shifts and the red and white gonad sack who was on morning shift would not swap shifts. Worth missing the game when we merged with them to stay in Super League HAHAHAHAHAHA he had a face like a bag of smashed crabs when we survived HAHAHAHAHA sorry for laughing WE GOT STANLEY GENE FOR FREE HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA unlimited aussies and world class coach in mcRea HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Ill have been at craven park with my uncle who used to take me to rovers to try an convert me to the ways of the damned. Luckily i followed the path of the righteous down to the boulevard.

I worked with a guy who was a Hull FC fan and Iasked him if he was at this infamous match, he replied 'no, but I know 10,000 who were'



Still the same Eric

You could have a thread like this on your board for nearly every game from 1994ish to 2007

Donny at home in the Summer or `79 was my first game! Addicted ever since !

i started going around that time i was 8 .my uncle used to play darts for the clubhouse i think ,used to turn up show is dart flights at one of the gates and the steward used to let us in .thats all i can remember

If you reckon you're less than 35 years old, you must've had the longest paper round in Hull's hitory

Was your uncle Alf Macklin

This is the game my dad always goes on about. He was there, and claims to have subsequently met another 20,000 people who were there also!

i was there stood on bunkers hill behind the sticks (only a few people in that area for this match)like i always did until they took the Boulevard away from us



god i'm glad we moved to KC



and as a contrast i was also stood in the same place years later when we could not move as we were packed in so tight the night we played the aussies and were robbed

i was there have the programme to prove it

nope sorry born in 76 why what happen

I was there Hull won 17 -15 and it was Huyton

That season Aug18 lost to HKR 13-24 Dec 26 Lost to HKR 12-19 on Jan 1 We drew with HKR 10-10

Someones found the 1977 Rothmans year book at a car boot



I rarely missed a game between 1963 and 1973 (when I joined the forces) and the between 1983 and today, but I am bolloxed if I can recall as many individual results without consultation, except for 10-5 that is
