I actually thought the choir were very good.. pity most people were on the concourses rather than appreciating them.. as for the KO time what a load of bollocks.. knocked a good chunk off the gate IMO.
How disrespectful, all those ladies and five gentlemen sing for pleasure and do it to promote health through singing, and they can sing very well. The PA system didnt do them justice as the music drowned them out. For your imformation, they were NOT GIVEN tickets they had to pay a subsidised price for them, so the club gained revenue from these ticket sales as non of the mebers of the choir actually go to watch city, but some said afterwards that they will come back and watch us again. Everyone is a winner.
Such bollocks, over policing happens nationwide and has nothing to do with our local media or rugby league. It's the result of decades of football fans acting like nob heads.
Yes plenty. Money yes, atmosphere no, that would be crap regardless, too easy to blame the police for that.
Do you ever go on other clubs message boards? Visiting fans rate Humberside plod as some of the worst in country. As for our local media, there have been two incidents at City games in the last ten years, one against Millwall four years ago, one against Huddersfield eight years ago. Every time we've played them since, they've run some bullshit 'zero tolerance' article. There was no such article in the Huddersfield Examiner and why would there be, it was an isolated incident eight years ago and everybody other than those with a negative agenda wouldn't even think about it. The Hull Daily Mail news desk are a bunch of ****s, the police try unsuccessfully to justify their continued involvement inside football grounds, causing more problems than they resolve. Football fans haven't acted like nob heads for years, you're a copper and I claim my £5.
Silly me, I was simply asking because I only recall seeing your name on threads having a dig at City fans, and a quick scan of your posting history seemed to confirm what I suspected.
Sorry. Forgot to add the caption Lass "Go on bray him Tubby yer bastard!" Tubby "Grmphf!" Rovers fan " ****in'ell Tubby, your lass wears the trousers!"
To be fair, people talk about that Millwall incident in the cup too much. Both sets of fans involved chucked seats and other objects things at each other, insulted each other, then started to run towards one another , but got about as far as a thin wall of stewards and ran back with their tails between their legs. It was hardly stuff of old was it. If it had kicked off on te pitch ie Bradford at Fer Ark then you have cause to whinge about it.
Do you work for the HDM? If, and I say if, any seats were thrown at they Millwall fans they were being returned as there were no missing seats in the City section. The running across was done solely by Millwall towards City, who merely stood. If the useless police had been there, there was a lot of them after informing everyone in the HDM how well prepared they were, only to be missing when needed nothing would happened. No police when needed against Millwall, yet yesterday 15 of them plus stewards between the choir and the Huddersfield fans, which must have reassured anyone from Huddersfield worried about anyone in a Santa suit attacking them. No stewards down the side of the Huddersfield fans nearest to the East Stand though just the usual bunch in the tunnel who ignore whatever away fans do whilst itching for a chance to eject some City fans. Police blocking the top of the stairs in the aisles in the first 3 sections of the East Stand. A complete shambles and something that needs sorting out. It is difficulty to do too much about our power crazed police but surely they could teach the stewards how to do their jobs properly with courtesy and efficiency.
Do i balls. Stop making a small incident out to be a battle of any great magnitude. You'd have thought it was Stalingrad that day the way people go on about it.
