Tried it on a couple of occasions..1 second past midnight on the first day you're overdue a red letter is printed. Shame they don't respond to requests to clean up an overfill litter bin as quickly! Don't you just love HCC?..You call 300300, and after about 5 mins of telling you who to call they tell you to call 300300....fecking bizarre.
This should be last time fans go on the pre-season trip, not only is a waste of money, but the same people going multiple times is causing more bad feeling than it's creating any benefit.
I honestly don’t care who goes and I’ve never entered into it myself but the club is playing silly buggers by pretending it’s random and that people are ineligible if they’ve been before.
Dennis is already ahead of Giles in the pecking order and he’s got a dodgy knee he doesn’t like to talk about
its run its course anyway, it was a great gesture at first adding to what was a feel good factor at the club at the time. its just boring now and looks inappropiate with everything else going on
Agreed, the same people going just gives off sycophancy vibes too. And like you say, the optics of it are terrible. We’re hard up for cash yet he’s jetting out the Botanic regulars for a free holiday on his private jet to see the team train at the Turkish FA’s HQ?
did have to laugh on Twitter though, apparently theres a couple on the trip who have constantly slagged him off over last few weeks, and somebody said i wouldnt accept any offers of a boat trip if i were them, could be some spare seats on the way back
Exactly. Remember years ago when HCC brought in an extra charge of £20 on everyone's bill to cover those who don't pay anything. It was optional if you paid it or not, or so they said. I decided just to pay what I owned and left it at that. Some time later I received a court summons from a firm of bailiffs claiming because I didn't pay this £20 the charge was now £70 because of the summons and the bailiffs being called in and if I didn't pay that within a set amount of time rise to god know what. I remember going to a little office in Hull Old Town to pay, the 'optional' £20 was now £70, so it was never optional at all. There was queue of about 100 people outside the office who had all fell foul of the same confusing lettering on our rates bill. Legalised robbery.
Actually, just for clarification (as I fully understand this situ better now) my 'stink' comment was not a critique of the process of selection, I was referring to that ramshackled junkyard dog looking bunch stinking in terms of really humming ground-in for days/weeks B.O., stinking breath cultivated for eating ****e food and not brushing your teeth with a constant flurry of steak flavoured crisp type burps and a perma flow of rank farts engulfing the plane. I hope they all have a great time though.
Same here - never would dream of entering as doesn't appeal to me at all. But you're right, the Club should be upfront on the criteria and selection as it can needlessly can erode trust further
