On my street the is 1 Cas fan, 2 Wakey fans, a bradford fan and 2 leeds fans.

unleash the fury!!!!!

My cul-de-sac too - 3 Wigan, 2 Wire, 1 Leigh and 2 i don't know. Live in Lowton.

But the difference is that my street is just a typical street in Hull. Oh, and I forgot the one Leeds fan, everyone hates him!

So how deep does this rivalry go?

I'm genuinely interested.


I went to the 'Old Firm' soccer derby between Rangers and Celtic... that was the most intense atmosphere I've ever experienced at any sporting event.

Those 2 sets of fans would shove knives in each other 7 days of the week at home, work, down the pub wherever and not bat an eyelid.

Ok at lot of it is sectarian based hatred in Glasgow... but surely the hatred between the Hull clubs isnt that bad?

Do people get bashed in Hull for wearing a rival side of towns shirt or is it more of a 'banter' type rivalry?

Probabaly just that, for me it's the same as the Everton Liverpool Derby, the city is split as are most families it's a very very strong rivalry.

It's 99% banter, I live in east hull and have my car covered in FC stickers and I wear my Hull top out and about and nobody really bats an eyelid.
There is the odd time that it spills over and there chairman doesn't do anything to help relations with his anti-FC rhetoric. But on the whole it's healthy. My brother is a dobbin. Even some of my closest friends are red and White. But on derby day I have no brother and my friends are inbreds with webbed feet.



The Old Firm is unique, it's religion based and tbh sometimes quite pathetic. I've been to 2, one at each stadium and they really do take it to another level.

I'm a Keighley fan so it can only be Br*dford.

They're 10 miles down the road for a start.

They copied Cougarmania and passed it off as their own innovation.

They colluded with the RFL and Sky to deny us our rightful place in Super League by changing the rules 4 weeks before the end of the season when we'd practically won the 2nd division.

The local council financed 1 refurb of Chav Catalogue Stadium already in the Super League era and were planning another. Meanwhile Cougar Park is falling apart and we get £4k per year off them and have to pay £3k of it back in rates.

I dislike them all

I'm guessing the 26 dislikes for Hull came from Hull KR fans.

As a Wigan fan I don't hate saints or wire tbh it's more the nothing teams like wakey & cas that I hate

Hmm, tough decision between Stains and Wigan, but in the spirit of "the big one" I'll vote Wigan...

Very simple choice for me.

You & Wakey first.

Barry it's all friendly - I know plenty of fantastic people who are Airlie Birds fans, it's a great city to live in for an RL fan.

Well, perhaps us and Rommel.

You sure it wasn't the other way round?

Cougarmania was way before B*llmania. Cougarmania began back in 1991.

They were still Br*dford Northern then, they saw we were on to a good thing and crowds were increasing drastically, so they copied it.

So basically you're calling Bullman a fraud?!

Has to be Wigan Warriors for me.

The way their treated Mike Gregory was a disgrace along with breaking the salary cap to ensure that Castleford went down and not themselves.

No i've used all my 20 different names to vote for the turds of superleague

I voted Leeds....

Shock horror Saints fan hates Leeds (ok hates too strong)

Ok dont actually hate Leeds as a RL team, they've got some decent players,
over the 50+ years I've been watching we've had some cracking games, I've admired some of their players, John Holmes was always a pleasure to watch.

Its just that they seem to have more pain in the a*** fans than any other side (present company excepted)
As much as Saints have a great rivalry with Wigan I respect their fans, they're generally pretty knowlegeable on the game, then there's Warrinton fans........well they can't help where they're born.

I don't like sweeping generalisations but a lot of the Leeds fans I've met over the years aren't what I'd class as rugby league people. On quite a few occasions I've been sat in the stands at Headingly and I always get the Leeds fan who is there with a first-time fan, so he tries to explain to him/her whats going on but he's talking and has obviously never picked up an oval ball in his life.
Its the same when they come to Saints, there's a few spare stand seats near us so we often seem to get fans who are on some corporate bash, the equivalent of Roy Keanes Prawn Sandwich brigade.
Then there's that stupid Yawkshire, Yawkshire chant, do they ever count how many of their players haven't come from Yorkshire, and most probably couldn't point to it on a map.

No doubt on here there are some genuine Leeds fans on here so my apologies to them, but I bet you also know the types of fans I mean, do they make you cringe as well.

As I said many cracking games with Leeds over the years so dont really hate the club.


Saints57

Not a fraud, he's the barsteward love child of Freddie Cougar, who spread his seed throughout West Yorkshire in the early 90's.

Halicat and Roger the Ram are also his as well.
