Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.;
While we're at it, I'd like to moan about a group that sit behind me in the South Stand just to the left of the sticks. To the moaning shrill voiced woman - in Rugby it's a penalty and not a free kick. Also, we aren't going to lose just because Will Sharp is playing, and how the feck can you call offside or a forward pass while sitting parallel to the play?

the girl behind me in east spent most of the match telling her mum about her favourite inbetweeners episodes. I'm not sure where I'd rather be sat

LOCKO'S LYRICS OF THE WEEK:- AND ECHOES NOBODY HEARS, IT GOES, IT GOES, IT GOES WE’RE FAITHFUL, WE ALL BEL13VE, WE ALL BEL13VE IT SO FAITHFUL, WE ALL BEL13VE, WE ALL BEL13VE IT
I'd like to moan about the woman that sits next to me in the South stand - Every game she drives me crazy; shouting and screaming at the ref, every pass is forward and every tackle is high. In fact, I'm thinking of not taking her next time.
I'm just getting a bit fed up with the lack of balance from some. Yes, there are things not to be happy with, I'm not saying that it's all rosy and people aren't justified in a moan. What bothers me is those who won't give any credit for the positives we have seen, or even flat out denials that there are any. What is even more grating is the fact that the bulk of it is done with a large amount of ignorance, by people who are not attending and before they've even had chance to see any highlights. I've whinged about the team over the last few years, and I don't feel I'm a particularly inflammatory poster in general, but enough's enough. If people are either too stubborn or too stupid to assess things with an open mind instead of just looking for reasons to bash the club or setting unrealistic goals so that they can complain when we inevitably can't match them, then I honestly think that they and the rest of us would be better off with their absence for a few weeks. Have a look at us when the weather improves and the team have been playing competitive rugby together for a bit longer and then see what you think (and that means making a judgement based upon what you see, not looking for what already suits your preformed opinion).
It's not just restricted to on here either. At the game on Sunday there were so many around me only too willing to rip into Sharp when he didn't take that kick early doors. He went on to produce a truly outstanding display, but this was only met with silence by plenty of them. Why can't people just give credit where it's due?
So what I was trying to get at was those who only want to knock the club without anything constructive to say, and thought we could have a little corner set aside for them to play amongst themselves and hopefully make the rest of the board a bit more reasonable. As somebody else said, the board is arguably less enjoyable than in the close season at the moment.
Don't disagree with any if that. The problem is you are always going to get people with no patience and negativity within the grounds and on here. I don't like it either but everyone has any opinion.
There are sensible debates had on here regarding our progress under Gentle and it is possible to challenge things without being seen as negative if its done in the right way.
Unfortunately things will always be this way even if we were being successful.
The thing that has annoyed me most about Hull FC and my experience at the KC stadium over the last few years; is not the anti-climax seasons, the pathetic excuse of a hot chocolate, nor is it the inadequate paper towels in the toilets.... The one thing that gets my blood boiling more than anything is: the incredible tacky, humiliating, embarrassing, ear drum shattering "rock" rendition of Old Faithful that has slowly crawled its way into more and more productions by Hull's media team! When I heard the the players come out to it the other day I felt like I wanted rip off my ears and slowly beat myself to death with them. I would much rather listen to "Red Red Robin" than this! If you don't know which horrific version I am on about then watch this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvyY7uJu ... -rDYIImYPS WARNING: the song at the beginning of this clip was recorded by satan himself and may cause you to contract every disease known to man. you have been warned.
