I don't mind if it is HDM but would not like it tarnishing the City's reputation in the Nationals. Just saw someone tweeting about it. really stupid if true.
I was a couple of cars behind the Wigan coach when it got bricked, that was just chavs, who probably hadn't been to the game. The Saints on I haven't seen, but I've read it was 2 miles from the ground, so again is likely to just be chavs chucking stuff. Hopefully the dickheads will be caught, and the coaches will be escorted away from the ground, because it's not doing the city any good stuff like this.
I can only remember it happening twice in the last few seasons, both in the last 3 home games. Also, are football coaches not given a police escort away from the ground, something the rugby coaches aren't.
As has alreay been pointed out the football coaches have police escorts, rugby ones don't. Plus there has been nothing to tie either this or the Wigan incident to the hull fans.
So people who regularly make a point of bricking the coaches of Hull's opponents could be said to support whom?
Twice isn't regular for a start. We don't know who they 'support', that's the point, it's happened to coaches containing fans of rover's opponents too. You think these thugs support both teams? It could well be hull 'fans', it could quite as easily just be mindless thugs, we don't know.
It seems Hull fans are in denial about this nasty element of their support I've never heard of any football or rugby club who pretend that the problem is nowt to do with them in the way that Hull do It all started at the semi final when they ripped the posts down and the club got spotlighted for yobbery Any excuse seems to get trotted out now It happens after Hull FC games- it's a Hull Fc problem
A quick trawl of rugby sites will show it's a bit more than just the twice and it's got to be more than coincidence that these supposedly random acts coincide with FC games and not when other coaches travel on the same road. I did chuckle at some comments that it happened over two miles from the ground, but that the coaches went down Rawlings Way, which makes the A63 about a one mile journey. It must be the Sainsbury Way suicide squad.
It certainly exists, there have been instances in the past where violence at a rugby game has been atrtributed to 'Hull City fans' attending a rugby match. For the record, I don't always necessarily agree that the sport is to blame, it could easily have been mindless thugs who didn't attend the game who did it.
How do you know they weren't? You think the reporter made it up for a laugh? It's natural to be defensive about your own club but let's face it, we don't know who these people were or what club they associated themselves to.
