The whole issue just winds me up - are we really to believe that Liam Botham is on less than £20K at Leeds? :angry:

What about this wind you up further!

In the days when chairman Mo was influencial in all RL circles, we had a great team, top players etc. etc. Common gossip on the terraces (away from home) was that the club were somehow flouting the salary cap rules and that Mo was a member of some kind of RL mafia.

Since the demise of chairman MO's powers we have struggled to maintain a team of the quality that we had become accustomed to.

However you can chart the rise of Hull and the success of Leeds to the new "family" the Hethringtons.

"Godfather" Gary's treatment of Keithly (g) was despicable and probably illegal whilst the folding of both Sheff & Gateshead, both influenced by "something of the night" Kath was a disgrace to the game, but helped to promote her to the heirachy of the RL and finally to a financially stable Hull.

Forget a new coach what about a new "Godfather"!

Any guesses? 13,111 is our lowest league attendance against Bradford (televised). I can't decide whether people will turn up or not...

Go on then...13,500
Would like to keep this one going.

11,500 on Friday what's the guesstimate for UTC?

A really low guess.
Is this because of dissallusioned speccies, season ticket hoders going to more expense, unfashionable opposition, the lack of appeal of the chalenge cup or all of the above and more.

7000 Nah! More like creeping towards 10,000.

But you know me ever the optimist! :)
