For those sensitive souls to be from the North East corner beggars belief. Pure mischief on their part and sadly I think the club has been sucked in rather than letting common sense prevail and consigning their complaints to the waste bin.

I'm not quite sure how FC can ban Rufus from the KC per se - wouldn't it be the SMC since they're responsible for this sort of thing?

Also, is it Rufus the mascot that has been banned or the individual performing the role on the 17th?

I don't disagree, but still don't see how FC can ban him from the KC indefinitely for all events as was quoted. Surely it must be the KC Stadium Management Company?

Just don't see how FC have the power to determine what anyone does on City's time?

He should not be bending over showing his backside to the east stand, it is a disrespectable an act known as a mooney we all know what it means..I have never encountered another mascot doing that at our ground.

If he wants to do it at his home ground fair do's.
We have your directors having digs about fc in their interviews, what is wrong with them all, they never have any digs at any other club..

My advice get more professional

Stop mincing, are you sure you want to go outside incase someone looks at you funny?

Can you say that in English

You would be correct in calling it a mooney if he had his naked backside out.
It would seem that unless Lee had help that isn't possible.

I blame those perpetuating litigation culture for all this over sensitivity. I wonder if those offended can seek compensation?

But it is the gesture of a mooney, with possible intent to offend.

Best hope Yeaman doesnt kiss his badge then this season or he will be banned from the stadium.

So is it definite the ban has come from Rule? Still don't see how He/FC can ban the mascot or the person fulfilling that role from all KC events.

But how is kissing your badge offensive, it is a gesture of his love for the club, now when he scores if he bent down and did the gesture of a mooney I could understand upset being caused.

When Cookie scored he shot his arm in the air at us in the South he got the reaction he wanted

just par of the game

Dont talk out of your bloody hat








It isn't a mooney no matter how much you want it to be


I suggest you take one of these

and have a think about how idiotic you sound.

And let's not get started on Cockayne's one fingered salute to us in Cardiff.

I am

enjoying the footie



I do not think it is idiotic, I believe he did what he did to wind up the crowd

I am not sure if he should be banned though, however that comes on the back of the airlie bird being banned I suppose.

You used the phase 'With possible intend to offend'
Dont attempt to twist it to suit your own means.

Forgot about that







Or Cookies actions in the bar








Ban 'em all

Come on then. Is if definitely Rule/FC who've imposed the "indefinite ban at all KC events"?

But I guess you know best

Not twisting any thing..I do not have an agenda here, I do not care if he is banned or not, just giving my personal opinion on the alleged offence if some-one bent over to display their backside (clothed or not) I would interpret it as an offensive gesture.

I posted what i was told.
Read back.

Ive been doing that at your posts for the past 30 mins.
Do keep up.

You said:
have spoken to Hull FC's Media Manager just now.
Its true they have banned Rufus from the KC Stadium.

Which implies it was FC doing the banning.

I'm still not clear how Rule/FC can ban Rufus and/or Lee from Hull City games.

Fair point
