I know i am getting on a bit ,but the first time i went to hull was as a very young boy in in 1961 hull won 13-7 we had already reached the championship final , but being there was the first time i had ever heard adults openly swearing in front of children .
Its always stuck in my mind i know times have now changed , but at that time us leeds kids who where there had not yet experienced that sort of conducted.
I've only ever moved twice during a game - the first time was when 20 Leigh fans threatened to kick my head in and the second was due to the bad language from a group of female Hull supporters at a Hull v. Cas game. I don't have delicate ears and I've taken some serious $h1t at the Boulevard in my time, but the swearing was relentless and unbearable, from kick off to half time without a break. I have had no such problems with HKR fans or at their ground over the years, the only other place I've been to with a similar aggression level amongst the crowd was Wilderspool in the 80's and 90's. It's reputaion was not for nothing.
I have no burning desire to ever go to Hull again and listen to the foul mouthed thickwits that roll up in their mint humbug shirts to shout abuse at anything infront of them (I don't think I'll be missed but I can live with that).
