    I can't say I associated it with northern soul, it's had a fair it of usage over the years, so who knows where the club picked it up from.

    Nihil sub sole novum, as they say.

    Rovers have used "Pride of East Hull" for years before that. The Black & Whites should use pride of Gateshead/ the NE.

    I do find it a bit sad that Hernandez didn’t say his line in English. It could be that he didn’t feel confident speaking on camera in broken English but its a shame when players don't speak the same language. I seem to recall reading that he speaks to Diame in Spanish (and he'll obviously have had Ramirez to communicate to last year), but it's a shame when players aren’t all on the same page as there is a lot to be said about team spirit/camaraderie etc.

    The time span isn't the point. The passing off others ideas as your own is.

    Reminds me of a discussion on an FC forum a few years back. An FC fan was indignant that Wigan had nicked "their" song. The song in question? One about all the lads and lasses with all their smiling faces ganning along...
    Even funnier in the same thread another one was claiming that Old Faithful was the oldest team song. Which would have been a surprise to Geordies others where team songs had existed longer. Someone pointed out that nearly every song at rugby had been originally a football one, Red Red Robin was used at Charlton in the thirties when they came out. Back came the response they weren't football songs, they were terrace songs.
    Some folk get shouted down for pointing out rugby fans tend to be rather parochial...

    Maybe we should try it, their marketing and PR department pisses all over ours.

    True and nicking the ideas isn't my issue. Passing it off as ours is.

    Credit where it's due, it was a stroke of marketing genius getting our Pride of Hull tag on the ferry.

    Got told that a group of kids from Ypres came over for the Rovrum game last week.
    They got to the ground early and went in Hull's club shop and got their souvenirs, presumably having seen the Hull FC **** on the ferry and thinking there is only one team at the KC.

    Rugby League = it's so massive, no one's heard of it in Belgium.

    Wouldnt worry too much. Sure you would say it in English if you were in Uruguay for 18 months.

    If I couldn't speak the language, having lived somewhere for eighteen months, I'd be ashamed of myself,

    I'd be more worried about how many goals you'd scored.
