A big thanks and well done to Hull for the kids comp through airlie bird club to have a special match day experience.Me and son had great time last night,highlights being...

Sam moa not being able to work out that my sons pen was a simple twist and write style and instead just snapping it in two and writing with the broken stubb left over,with my lad just looking on mouth wide open!lol



johnny whitely taking time to come and sit with us all and tell stories of his old days and tell all the kids how proud he was of Hull as his home town lol



Tickle coming and sitting down and someone from hull staff asking him how gutted he was to not be playing tonight(this was at 7'oclock ish) and him saying 'i AM playing!' hull bloke says'no your not' and danny looking serious coming back with'well agar says i am'lol



Moa telling us how pi##ed off he was at not playing at min,esp as he had been told all week he definately was and only being then told at last min that Tickle had decided he was now fit and would be taking his spot instead!!!he was not laughing and looked really fu##ed off



a very sheepish Tansey coming and having a q&a session,(we'd been told no questions about the suspension allowed lol)



and finally Longy having to squat or kneel down at least twenty times to have his pic took with the youngsters and not looking in any pain at any time,except when he asked if anyone had read his book and only 2 adults from a room of about 40 put their hand up,"good!!2 he said!

oh and seeing a down on his luck cookie behind the scenes looking like he'd just wandered in off the streets

Just a word a about Tickle as he hasn't been mentioned much lately. Thought he was immense again last night, seems to have cut out some of the errors in his game. He's not just a kicking machine - a lot of his hard work goes unnoticed. Hope the rumours are untrue about him wanting to return across the Pennines next season.

Agree with that. Bigger miss than people think on the rare occasions he misses games through injury.

He was propping up the bar in the Kingston Suite all night - Stella in Hand.

Only ever been to one after game bash and that was after Hudds had hammered us at home last year. Twas not a pleasant experience. My nephews loved it though and i've got to say what a gent Eorl Crabtree was.

He often is!

So much for being unable to go out in Hull!

Tickle is looking twice the player now hes finally gettin spelled in games and has proper forwards alongside him.

Started last season like a house on fire and then went off the boil (like the rest of the team to be fair). Lets just he hope he can keep it up for most of the season.

He's brought it all on himself. It was his choice to walk out on us and cause us 2 seasons turmoil (please, not three). He'd better not be working his way back in.

Thacks has gone
