    As I'm reading it, it sounds like the clubs are being charged for wall space used for hanging pictures, which if true, does sound ridiculous.

    ...the Northern Rugby Football Union, was established in 1895. In 1922, the Northern Union also changed its name to the Rugby Football League[19] and thus over time the sport itself became known as "rugby league" football.

    Alot of Hull fans seem to dislike Hull City for some reason, they disliked us when Pearson and Duffen where chairmen. Where as Rovers either don't care about us or generally want us to do well. Is it a West Hull rivalry?

    It's certainly not one that I embrace or care about.

    The funniest thing is, I live in Leicestershire, and a huge amount of people don't even know rugby league exists. I had absolutely no idea rugby league existed til I found the bbc 606 board in 2008. I always assumed Hull FC was a second rate rugby union team, as I didn't know there were different variations of the sport.

    That is fact.

    Also, you think more people watch rugby league on sky than f1, cricket or horse racing? I think you should lay off the crack. I tried searching for RL viewing figures, but they must be so insignificant no one bothered to publish them. What I did find however is that, in the UK, aside from any football competitions, the only other events that reached sky's top 10 viewing figures for 2012 were the Silverstone F1 (which was also on the bbc) and Silverstone Moto GP. I also found out that the Six Nations is the most watched rugby event in the UK.

    So your claim that rugby league attracts the highest figures outside the premiership is quite rightly a load of made up bullshit. As is all the other bollocks you claim. Here, take a look at this graph for attendances by sport for last year (published by Deloitte)

    So take your bullshit elsewhere mad egyptian, no one outside of hull gives a flying **** about your tiny sport, and in hull more people care about hull city than your crappy little game.

    Watch rugby union instead, that's a proper game <ok>

    By the way, my primary school football team won more trophies than hull FC, so my primary school must be a bigger and more successful sporting team than FC.

    And there's only 14 other teams in your whole sport <laugh>

    Nobody out of Yorkshire cares about Rugby league and most people who live there don't care either.

    Like a **** version of a **** sport.

    I take it you're not a fan of the Leicester Tigers then, y'know, that team who seem to almost match you in attendances, but with more long term success ?

    Bit off topic AKCJ, but isn't this the guy who scored the winner for Man City against you guys at Wembley in '69 ( or thereabouts) ?

    I love these rugby league vs football arguments, I really do.

    It starts off usually about attendances 'proving' rugby is more popular overlooking that the 2 oval ball teams barely get higher between them despite the fact they're amongst the best teams in their sport in the UK whereas City are in the 2nd tier. Funny how they don't choose comparitive seasons attendances when City were in the top flight. And they also seem to overlook the watching public when the respective World Cups are on. I don't seem to recall the pubs being crowded and 1-in-1-out for the RL version...

    And then it always moves on to silverware as if being as successful as the mighty Batley in a sport of 20-odd teams in total is something to be proud of. And anyway, surely the fact City have never won trophies yet still get better attendances says it all.

    Well that's got my morning off to a good start. Can't beat a good old Football>Rugby argument. Looks like the egg chasers have been well and truly owned :)

    If both clubs have to pay to have pictures up, I don't see their problems with Ehab for confirming that is how it works? They're a bunch of ****ing idiots. You know what makes me laugh, the rugby fans that support Hull FC and Man United<laugh> Turds. That's the worst form of glory supporting, without even saying anything you are admitting to it.

    i agree, and if they are not happy with terms of their lease agreement, then simply move. what is the fuss about. and also in the midst of this local media fest, why no comment from hull fc on the matter? all they have to do is pay-up!

    Half the teams in Superleague aren't in Yorkshire, including the two biggest teams.
