Whoosh! You have completely missed the point. I offer no excuse for those players (and Pearson) and they deserved the bans they got. Hopefully they have learned their lesson from this and never do it again and each case admitted their guilt and took their punishment. Meanwhile a serial road traffic offender has again avoided what for normal offenders with a drop of integrity would have been an automatic ban twice in a year. "exceptional hardship" - what's that? he wouldn't be able to keep up with ambulances he's chasing.

Odd as well that Hudgell's road traffic history has been largely erased from Google. Is this horrible, unrepentant specimen using and abusing the "right to forget" laws as well?

Still I bet he's still unhappy today. Good.

Poor Neil.

I bet he’s still in the 10-5 bar now, unwashed & dishevelled, surrounded by food wrappers, watching the 1980 final on loop on an old VHS player.

Unless it recently reverted, it is the 1882 Suite now. Apart from that, the club of choice and the use of VHS technology, isn’t that basically how everybody spends bank holidays? I vaguely recall there being helpful advice on what time to start the replay of Hull’s most recent cup final win, so the final whistle would go on the stroke of midnight at New Year.

No . Just showing how fickle Hull FC fans are . Booing him during games , generally getting on his back . Seems the “faithful” added to his personal problems , then you all applaud during a game to show support for him while he is recovering ...you couldn’t make it up .

So points scoring then.
Every single sports team, including yours, have fickle fans. I really don’t have to look very hard to see that your current stand in half back is getting quite alot of flack from the terraces.

Every club has a scapegoat whether it's right or wrong Yeamon was a scapegoat for you for a couple of seasons even after the service he put in until he redeemed himself Marsh happens to be ours at the moment and when you are the scapegoat nothing good you do gets noticed after the derby fans where saying we had 12 men because we had to carry Marsh when in fact he was no worse than some of the other players he's not good enough but probably doesn't deserve the flak he's getting

Spot on. I can’t think of a single club in any sport who doesn’t have at least one player that the fans never really take to.

With Heffernan once again going off with a concussion injury last night. For the 4/5 time that I can remember.

Does there become a point when we/he should look at retiring for his long term health before it becomes something serious like with Goulding.
