The plate spinner took away his stick and the end result was embarrassing to the club !

Quoted from rancido



That's what kept Hull City afloat


The bucket collections or relocating?

Relocation from one part of the city to another wasn’t really an issue. They were still in Hull. They’re still Hull’s club. For North Ferriby the owner wanted to move them to another village east of Hull. They wouldn’t be N. Ferriby any more really. Franchising effectively.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

The Hull City rescue was nothing to do with the current owners.

The village of North Ferriby has a smaller population than Waltham. That level of success was never sustainable without ongoing financial support.

Think that was obvious at the time. Someone took them over apparently with the intention of exploiting the fact they'd been overpsending in order to make money on the land the club owned.

Barely from one part of the city to another as well. About a mile down the road.

Sad for the fans this. I was always a bit disappointed they didn't make it up to the Conference a little earlier. Would have been a great away day.

Last season in the Conference North some players were playing for travel expenses only. I saw them a few times and they were very substandard.

This in the end will happen to all hobby clubs once the rich owner loses interest , teams like fleetwood ( especially now blackpool are back ) forest green havent got the fan base to support themselves long term. Salford big population without the owners run properly I’d say possible

The owners...is it son of the Hull owner? wanted to change their name to East Hull. This was rejected so they pulled out...The Hull Tigers saga  and dummy spitting springs to mind.
