    Joking aside turning or kneeling kills my knees, but snowboarding is fine as there’s no twisting, it’s more like doing squats all day

    Yes some dimbos just can't seem to grasp this.

    Reckitt's, S& N, even Siemens now...... some CEO from abroad gets briefed by his Marketing people about sponsorship, gets told there are 3 local teams and that when two of them play each other it's like literally civil war and the whole city goes crazy about it.

    Do you think they then bung City all the sponsorship dosh when the local media pump out such overhyped self-serving bullshit?

    Not likely.

    It would take a fairly dim CEO to not know football was way bigger than rugby league.

    Newsflash: some local CEOs are not only non British but also have little or no interest in sport

    Agreed.

    How did P&O end up sponsoring Hull FC on the ferries?

    Do the Belgians and Dutch enjoy RL?

    That's money that could have sponsored City

    Would expect more sizeable sponsorships acceptable to football clubs which some companies would baulk at.

    I went today, and credit where it's due, the atmosphere was fantastic. Thought there was nearer 21,500/22,000, but if it was 20k then fair enough

    As long as the concourses and stands are swilled out with Harpic after the game and made fit for a football crowd, they can do what they want...

    Saw some 'highlights' in Look North.

    Seemed to be no **** in E2 and E3.

    Long way to come I suppose.

    Hull City would have turned their noses up at the amount of money P&O were paying Hull FC.

    The deal was that low that Hull FC are now getting paid more by a local concrete firm.

    To be fair, they have redressed the balance by totally ignoring bottles being thrown onto the pitch and into a family stand.
    That would have covered acres of newsprint and being the topic of a special on RH if it h
