vermin infestation

Sell out every game. Mostly corporate guests. Little success in the last few years, sadly.

 

I can't disagree with you OLM. It's just that I find so many on this site, and other fottball fans I have taked to ,come to a false conclusion that anyone living in a particular place who support a club from somewhere else are doing it for plastic/glory reasons. Far from the truth. Christ, I have 20 or 30 mates over here who now support Hull City, who've never even been to England ! Through word of mouth ( me & my rugby union playing best man who's also over here). Just another avenue to get hooked, hardly to seek glory !
Couple of members on here come to mind - Ellewoods and Sydneytiger14.

 

Yeah I've just watched them versus Vancover .
Not many Bruins fans in Toronto ??

 

You'd be surprised. I know at least 5. All from Boston and have lived here for at least 20 years. (Not one a draft-dodger either).
Did we win ?

 

4 v 2

 

Yes , especially if you want to go to live games , why not.

 

I follow Hull City and will support them when the allams leave. Support only comes when you pay money into the club.
I follow Hull FC through the media.

I will take to task anybody following a glory team.
It usually takes the form of "where in Liverpool/Manchester was you born"
They try to justify it by saying their dad was born there.
My response is how comes you don't follow "St.Helens"
The conversation usually ends there.

Hats off to those still attending city matches.

 

Spot on.

After Saturday's game on the HDM Facebook article about crowd trouble, there were plenty of Leeds fans from Hull commenting.

One comment: "All Leeds aren't we" - except this person is wearing a Hull FC shirt, so clearly picks and chooses when they're "all Leeds aren't we".

Another comment: "I'm from Hull and can confirm there's lots of Leeds fans here, myself included"
I ask him: So, who do you support during international matches: Germany? Spain?
He replies: "Seeing as I'm English that sort of answers your question"
I reply: So, if that's your logic, you're saying you're not from Hull?

He just responds with an emoji...

It seems these people are just too stupid to see the irony.

 

Knuckle dragging ****s- the losers from Market Harborough, Carlisle and every other place where low self esteem is rife,

ALL LEEDS ART WEH?

No you're mostly losers from anywhere where self esteem is low

 

I once worked with a Leeds fan from Carlisle

 

What a life

How many teams do you have to support to find a decent one?

 

I wouldn’t bother with them.

Call them a **** by all means but you’ll just get wound up by single digit IQ’s trying to get a decent reason why they choose to support these plastic clubs.

 

One of my closest friends is from Gillingham. The Gills are his second team. Guess who’s his first, and the nearest he’s been to there is going through it on the train, by his own admission.

He claims it’s because his aunt used to live next door to Peter Lorimer. I happily say plastic to his face.

 

Holy xxxx ! It seems that there are some too stupid to see the logic.

 

Second team?

What the ****s one of those?

 

Something you should grow out of at 12

 

That is beyond plastic.

 

I was born and grew up in Leeds, yet support Hull City. Does that make me weird?

Of course my Dad and all that side of my family are from Hull - my Dad was a mad lifelong City fan. Recall it was when I was about 9, circa 1985 when I first started taking an interest in the team.

My Dad didn't even encourage me to support City when I was young - he preferred to encourage my independent thought rather than just copy him. But I suppose I did so out of family importance really, especially after being taken to my first game around 1987.

I do remember his words to me though - "I don't care who you support, as long as it's not Leeds".

 

Good bloke your dad.
