3-0 to the FC!

Last Thursday night was the 3rd derby against Hull KR this season, (there was a pre season testimonial game too) and we have won them all!
I have to say looking at the form book, most people was expecting a KR win, but we clinched a close game 20-16.
It was a fantastic game, really enjoyed it. Even had a couple of decent scraps, just like the old days!
Here's a video of the first punch up, someone has taken a video off the TV lol.

'A hard budget, but fair...'

Or so Mr George Osbourne said today when he rolled out his budget.
So lets see shall we?
Vat increase, of course that will effect people with less money.
Child benefit freeze, again, this will effect the poorest of us.
That is just 2 examples off the top of my head. It is a fact of life that people with excess funds can absorb increases in the cost of living, easier than people on a fixed income. People who work in the public sector are having their wages frozen for 2 years, (if they earn over £21,000 per year). The electric bill and the gas bill and the water bill and the food bill...will they be frozen for people? No. they wont be.
The thing is, who got us into this financial mess? The new coalition government would have you believe it was the outgoing Labour Government. This is partly true, but bailing out the banks cost this country a pretty penny. It's about time those crooks started giving it back.
I can remember the last Tory administration, I think this one scares me even more. Every one of them in the top jobs have no idea how it is to struggle to keep their heads above water financially. Not one of them.

Need Cheering up?

Well get your hands on an album by a band called The Baseballs, entitled 'Strike' They're a little bit different and new, in an old type of way. Here's an example, and their take on Katy Perry's 'Hot and Cold'

What a win by the FC

We beat St Helens 27-26 tonight at the KC after being 6-26 down at the beginning of the 2nd half. Trust me to miss the game as I had a knee flair up last night and couldn't walk very well.
Ah well we're at home next week too, should be able to make that match.
Well done lads, and thank you! :D

Oh Jermaine!

You forsake the gleaming white for this. I hope they're paying you enough!

New Phone pic

Just discovered I can send a pic too!

New Phone

 I've just got a new Phone, and a jolly posh one it is too!
The HTC Desire has the Android operating system, and really is like a
little PC in your hand! I'm just messing about with it now, trying to
do a blog post by email. I wonder if it will work!

Hello

I have been awfully lax with this haven't I? Now what has happened since I last posted on here? Hmmm now let me seeee......


Good innit? :D
Just on another related note, wasn't it lovely to see Bayern Munich get beat in the Champions League Final last night. I still remember 1975 you dogs!

Hull FC are having an up and down season. But having said that we went to 4th today with a win at Castleford. So really all we have to do is hit some real form around now and bingo! Mind you, nothing is never simple with both the teams I support.

Here's Hull FC fan video from youtube. Some of the players featured have left the club and one has been sent down the road for fraud! I just like it, and the last shot illustrates for me how Hull FC and the fans are a special team.

A thing of beauty, it has to be said........

I love Leeds United very much indeed xx
