Ahem....Wigan,Donny,Elland road...............Duffens a pr1ck,been caught lieing.....saying that,i aint botherd as it will be same old faces....more botherd about FC.

Well what the hell is it then.........Duffens just admitted on radio its to do with Citys fixtures.

Seems that it is after all. Alone among all the football sides involved, Hull City were unable or unwilling to compromise on fixtures.

Pathetic.

And this is why the SMC should be run by a neutral person.

duffen has to resign from the chairman of the smc imo, he HAS a conflict of interest, what a load of b0ll0x regarding waiting for the fixtures, hull city ALWAYS request an away fixture when hull fair is in town, so what is the difference!?

I think Duffen is being very pedantic. He says the RFL would not be guaranteed a date prior to the football fixtures coming out in June and therefore stalemate has resulted.

Are there not two days of every weekend? surely whichver football league City would be playing in would be informed and either put City away that weekend or arrange for a Sunday game. it happens all the time in football these days.

Duffen seems to be saying that 3pm saturday is football time - its not!

Like I say, Mr duffen has failed to convince me this is not anything more than pedantic to say the least, and I say that as City season ticket holder.

Did he mention something about Hull FC having a game? I thought I heard this, but I may be mistaken.

Agreed - very short sighted decision and damaging for his reputation, particularly amongst non Hull City fans.

Still, it will be interesting to see what defence 'My Uncle Nobhead' comes up with for this one.

Agreed. Of all the grounds i thought we may get a knock back would have been the JJB, Not KC.

And Hull City dont always get an away fixture during the fair eg. west ham on the sunday during fair, and previous years have been the same .

Yes it is sad , wanting a local club to to do badly .

Seems odd that the SMC are turning down the chance to presumably make a tidy sum for hosting the game.

He also said that if the FA. requested to play a U21 game and there was a possible conflict re. an FC game he would have told the FA. the same as the RL.

Well when your dick of a chairman pulls a stunt like this then what do you expect.

Thats total bolloxs as they play bloody mid-week...just like the other U-21 games have when we have played...so thats pi££ed on that theory.

I will be honest with you , I don't give a damn about internationals . The fortunes of the Tigers and FC are what concern me .

How do Man Utd work round the Grand Final eh

Not all the time . England v Germany U21 , good friday 2004 ish off the top of my head .

PS. do you have to be abusive.

I agree with you on that score (apart from the Tiggers bit)

Even HKR.......Please THINK before posting.......Plus......I F**kin hate soccer......savvy?

I am probably among the small percentage of FC fans who are happy for Rovers to do well as long as FC do better and we win when we play Rovers . Watching Rovers V Leeds on SKY last friday I wanted Rovers to win and felt the video ref bottled it when he should have gone for benefit of doubt and given the try ( it would have been a try had it been a Leeds try decision I bet ) , so CHEW on that . Oh are you American because in Engl**d it is called association football .

As Chairman of SMC he has been negligent in two of his duties, to maximise income for the stadium and to allow the stadium to be used by the whole community not just football fans. The decision was made with his Hull City hat on and if he is now sticking by the decision we are never going to get an RL international at the KC again because they are always sorted well before football fixtures come out.
This ludicrous situation of being chairman of both Hull City and SMC needs addressing because there is a clear conflict of interests

You wanted BOD when the ball was clearly knocked forward? How odd.




Actually, soccer is just a contraction of 'association football' and is in common use on both sides of the Atlantic.

I reckon you are

Wash your mouth out
