| If (and that's a very big if) I ever decide to walk away from FC, then I will NOT make a public announcement to that effect. To me it reeks of attention seeking. If you want to go, then go!!

| Each to their own.
Hull FC are my club and I will follow them irrespective of who they play and which division they are in.
The game is in a poor state, that's clear. But changing things doesn't happen over night. The stability of the TV deal and the league sponsorship should give the game a platform for forward planning.
Rubbish refereeing should not be a reason to walk away. Referees have never been perfect as they have just one set of eyes. That incidents get replayed on TV more now just highlights what has always happen, referees miss things.
Hudgell has a point about the disciplinary procedure, it's inconsistent and there are now too many instances of lesser teams being punished than bigger teams. Paea gets banned for being 3rd into a tackle around the knees yet two days after he is given his ban, there were many incidences of the same tackle in the Wire /Wigan yet that doesn't get cited.
Referees cannot see everything but unfortunately there are some weak referees who avoid making a decision if possible. Take last nights game. Miller gets flattened by Morley, referee stops the game awards a penalty and puts the incident on report. Now, if it warrants a penalty it's fowl play and the referee, bing 10 yards away, has seen the event. Why the need for the report system if it's been seen?
Final big issue in the game is the sanitising of the collision. Penalising shoulder charges IMO is wrong.

My decision to not go to matches ATM in time is being replicated hundred times over.
Expressing my view as to why I've made this decision is known as being part of a DEMOCRACY.
If you don't like it, TOUGH.

I respect your decision not to go but posting it on a rugby forum is cockish behaviour

I look forward to your views on last nights match in your Diary Wilf.
One swallow?
Steve (look at me) Ganson is keeping a low profile again this week by officiating on his home team (AGAIN).
I wonder why supporters believe the RFL are corrupt?
Do you have views that our 30year old International centre requires passing practice (WTF) and our coach sees that as OK to keep selecting him?

Well I didn't see last week coming and it was a debacle nor did I see last night coming either I don't think anyone could, I thought some of the selections were strange but what do I know, because it worked....gloriously.
It was 'only Salford' but now in the cold light of Saturday morning I still think our defence in particular made it for those who turned up a pretty amazing night. I enjoyed it!

How far in advance are these concerts booked? I thought we had signed up to the 2014 games at the Etihad a few years ago? Did someone forget to pencil in the dates?

The concert is the week after May bank holiday so I'm not sure why they moved Magic Weekend.Looking at Man Citys website there's no event planned for the Bank Holiday weekend

| ... and now, of course, we have to wait a couple of days to see how many players have been "reviewed" and are now to appear before the disciplinary panel. Quite bizarre.

I sincerely hope that last nights performance is the catalyst for the team for the rest of the season.
However, will the refs and administrators be impartial and not influence just not our season, but all other SL clubs season I very much doubt.
We will improve, no doubt when suspensions and injuries clear up.......that's me finished for now.
CMON U UUUULLLLAAAAHHHHHH.
PS Hope there isn't increase in the suicide rate on here now that I'm gone.

The only feeding he's interested in is his ego.

So because I happen to agree with some of the others that you have been a bit of a drama queen by creating this topic I'm involved in a "love-in"? Um, no. It's called having an opinion.
I honestly don't understand why you're posting on here having announced that you've given up and will no longer attend matches? Are you hoping we'll all beg you not to give up and help you change your mind?
