yeah, furry muff that, agreed

Its the solvant abuse of those who seem to remember the boulevard for something it wasn't who need to be looked after

No, but you clearly were.

NZ game - party, friendly, nothing game in reality.

Chico went 90 yards against Whitehaven who brought about 6 fans, no real noise made through out the game.

Hudds game - we had a great performance against our nearest rivals. basically you are saying it took the players on the field to get the fans going.

Sheffield game - granted, the fans were up for that one.

Ultimately its the fanes the generate the noise, not the ground

Nail, Hammer, Thwack!

There is another,

nail, hammer, Thwack!

Have you ever heard any player of any team slate the fans of a club they have just left (Paul Cooke excluded).

The manificent fans thing is based in the numbers that travelled and vocally supported the team on their travels.

Having spoken to several players from years gone by, the ones who played in period 1993-1996 would have a very different opinion.

I am not referring to former FC players. Use Shaun Edwards, joe Lydon, Johnathan Davies etc

What? The game where he was playing on the left wing, caught an interception, went the length and then laid down for about 2 minutes? Pretty sure it was Batley! I remember it as Tomlinson throwing the intercept!

Who cares if it's the players that got us going or not? It still resulted in the ground being atmospheric?

Just watched my Hull tries video from '96 and in almost EVERY home game you can hear the fans going off!

Because the sound was recorded from opposite the 3d, perhaps?

TBF, you would kind of expect that from a compilation tape of us scoring tries.

How could it be? According to you lot you couldn't hear the 3d from any other part of the ground!

You do also remember the microsphones in the 3d, linked to the tannoy system? (although that was soon stopped)

You saying we had the foresight to only sing 3 or 4 tackles before we scored?

It was only used for 2 games including a classic against Saints.

the fact it was felt needed kind of blows your argument clean out of the water though.

It's not an argument, I'm just relaying my memories. I remember plenty of games when we made that volume ourselves.

You think a scoring move consists of only 3 or 4 tackles?

Or that a team may not be in a dominant position leading up to the scoring of a try?

Think some common sense is needed on both sides of this debate.

Then age has dulled your memory.

You think we didn't score any interceptions, tries from broken play or long range tries?

I agree regarding common sense but the opposing sides have very different interpretations.

My 32 year old memory is younger than yours.

by a year, doesn't make it right either.

No, but my video collection confirms the memories.

No, it confimrs, at best, that the crowd made some noise which was captured by audio/visual equipment and added to some well edited highlights.

What I would like to know is why members and so called fans, hate our history, fans and ground. Why proceed in slating the club, spiritual home and history.
It's not called for, we have red and white chums to assist us with that

Can't see anyone doing that, just correcting innacurate memories of the Boulevard, based on experiences of being there.
