Due to the road closures for the Jane Tomlinson run, they had to go via Preston Road

This is the police we're talking about. You can't expect them to come up with anything as innovative as that

My thoughts exactly, they might send a pcso on a bike though...

There was no trouble, so escorts clearly work.

In all seriousness, this does our city no favours. I am fed up of having to defend the club and the city to other RL fans and yawnion trolls because of a few mindless idiots who clearly have nothing better to do than use away fans' coaches as target practise.

If this is the case where the coaches are being bricked at more or less the same points, a) it has nothing to do directly with the club, it's obviously some morons who know there's a match on and are waiting for the opportunity
b) Yes the club should (and do) work with the police to ensure supporters are safe as far as the stadium boundaries. After that surely its the Police's jobs as in any other public order offences. Hell, a little while ago, some idiots dropped a slab from a bridge on Clive Sullivan Way onto a car, not match day. Was that Hull Fc's supporters well? I'm sure we all want the best for the away fans, but there's only so much the club can do here.

You're a bell end but credit where it's due, you're consistant.
A few years back when TSB sponsered Rovers they put free or subsidised coaches on for our away fixture at Huddersfield. At the end of the game the coaches were all let out together, roudabouts, traffic lights and rights of way were blocked of by the police, and about 20 coaches were whisked out of the town centre to the motorway in a matter of minutes. Surely it must be in the best interests of the local plod to handle the situation in this way, rather than having incidents like todays. Is it a question of finance, or is it just lazy policing? It maybe depends on who would have to pay for this sort of escort/prioritising once it moves away from the ground.Surely the local police force are responsible for the safety of people entering or leaving our city, whatever the reason for them coming here.

This is not an overreaction but certainly a misdirected reaction.

If I attend an away match and come back to my car parked on the public highway to find some tw*t has broken in or smashed the windscreen do I call the home club and ask them to sort it out ?

Yes it reflects badly on the City of Hull, yes it will discourage away fans from attending the KC, yes it's in the clubs interests that the culprits are caught (and given 20 hours community service), but it's a matter for the police.

I think Beetwaste knows the point exactly, as he for one, is talking sense.

The best you and your friend rockgod can offer is trying to laugh the situation off, and call people cockends because your levels of intelligence do not allow you to come up with a serious discussion, or anything remotely resembling an alternative view point.

Now, it's obvious to see that people like beetwaste, and no doubt 90% of your true supporters, would not try to brush this under the carpet and hide behind the fact that it apparently happened 2 miles away (if indeed it did ? ) and so consequently isn't YOUR CLUB's problem.

I'm afraid to say Sheldon and RockGod, that it is precisely people like you two who only add to the already terrible situation by demonstrating your intellect. As if Hull didn't have a bad enough name already.

So, why am I bothered ?
As a Rovers fan I am fully behind the new stand build at Craven Park (at a considerable cost) to encourage away support, thus consequently hopefully increasing our revenue stream - which in theory should benefit the long term good of my club.

So, I am bothered by these events, and they are not even directly linked to my club, whereas you two, along with one or two other mindless idiots don't seem bothered in the slightest and yet it is YOUR club's problem.

If you have a reasoned view point please make it, otherwise please do feel free to resort to back to the norm and divulge in expletives to try to gain some brownie points from like minded retarded folk.
I'll start you off if you like ... you're a knob rash

Good start.

Les The Red you're just a Red and White sh*t stirrer.

Please add me to your little list with Sheldon and Rock God.

Consider yourself added.
Yet another "supporter" more concerned with using expletives towards a Rovers fan, than admitting to a problem within his own club.
Priceless.

Oh no not the dreaded submission icon.

If you are so concerned about the situation why are you not on your board discussing the problem you also have with scroat fans and how this problem can be eradicated ?

At least your spelling is a bit better under this username.

The Rawlings Way area falls under the Myton and St. Andrews local policing areas. FC fans fed up with this group of kids making the club and the city look bad can email their concerns to Sergeant Craig Nixon, who works on both, at this address: SPOCNeighbourhoodTeamRiversideDDIV@humb ... .police.uk

Your giving the hull a bad name,if its not windows smashed,its playing illegal players,drug cheating,CEO's lying about it .A total embarrassment to real supporters,unlike you who seems to think its funny making a joke of it,you should be ashamed.!

Because when Hull City play at the KC it's rammed with police and the away coaches always get a police escort. Go and troll somewhere else you moron.

What a surprise. Coach getting bricked in Hull

I know the thread didn't start well but is that all you want to add?

And you my friend are an Idiot - HULL KR building a new stand has nothing to do with Feral KIds throwing bricks at away Supporters Buses in West Hull. Stop linking what happens after a Hull Game with what happens at your Ground. We are in General ashamed of what happens to give OUR City a bad name so just Chill and realise the majority are not the Sheldons (who lives in another country apperently) or Rock Gods of this world. By the way explain what is a knob rash ?

It's tough living in a huge working class city with many poor run down areas and delinquent kids out to cause criminal damage. It's a real shame you haven't the intelligence to post something constructive. It would never happen in Merseyside would it!

Thread's a train wreck and I have better things to do than tidy it up. Plus as pointed out a few times there is nothing the ordinary fans can do about this except report anything they may know to the authorities. Trolling, insults, and finger-pointing certainly aren't going to help.
