This is a sad state of affairs when we cant hold test matches in rugby strongholds.

Looks like Hull City's chairman has put his foot down and stopped our City getting a R.L. international later this year
All previous internationals have exceeded 20,000 plus and others have been sell outs.....its not as if Mr Duffen's SMC wouldn't have received a nice tidy sum.
How do you know this? Is it just your assumption?

If you listened to the hull city fans forum last night you be very well aware of what Rugby League fans mean to Mr Duffen
Lets face it Wigan are premiership soccer team and manage to arrange an international at the JJB and Doncaster share their stadium with a soccer team and also gained an international.
Duffen is Chairman of both Hull City and the Stadium Management Company so in reality its do as i say.

Yeah in a nutshell - broadcast over the radio.
He is meant to manage the stadium in a fair and un-biased manner and to manage it as a community stadium, which clearly he has no intention of doing

whilst I dont agree with some of the venues chosen for the 4nations - why do the people of Hull feel like they should be guaranteed a test match every year? There are plenty of options around the country.

We dont feel we should be - but 20,000 plus crowds every year, the RFL 2 weeks ago stating Hull was one of the first choices for a game, and then the utter disdain shown from somebody who is meant to have an unbiased attitude toward the running of the stadium has left a bitter taste in the mouth.

You might have a point if the problem was on the side of the RFL but as the RFL wanted to host a game at the KC and the issue lies with the SMC you don't.
