The next eagerly anticipated Hull FC fans forum has been confirmed for Tuesday 13th July and it promises to be a night to remember!

It was confirmed that the mid-season forum would be something a little bit different and that is certainly the case with an exciting change of venue to Hull Truck Theatre!

Whereas the previous high-profile forum events, which have sold out within two days, have been held at the KC Stadium, Hull FC and Hull Truck Theatre have come together once again to provide the stage for what promises to be another superb evening with the Black and Whites.

A change of venue isn’t the only special treat in store for supporters either, because as well as Hull FC Chief Executive James Rule, Head Coach Richard Agar and two first-team players on the panel, fans will also have the chance to grill special guest, Stuart Cummings, the RFL’s Match Official’s Director.

As well as that, there will be two special guests of honour as we count down to the next Hull derby which follows just three days later, while Hull FC’s official charity partner for 2010, the RNLI, will also be in attendance.

Once again, Hull FC’s independent supporters group ‘FC Voices’ are facilitating the event in conjunction with Hull FC and KCFM99.8, who will be broadcasting the evening live as part of their ‘Airlie Night’ programme, which for that week will move to a Tuesday evening.

Chairman of FC Voices, Pete Allen, said, “It has long been the intention of FC Voices to try and occasionally get a City Centre Venue for these events to make it more accessible for the fans.

“When the Club and Hull Truck suggested this idea we felt that it offered something different and somewhere that was accessible from all over the City by one bus journey.”

He added, “The venue also offers us the opportunity to make this not just a forum, but a special Hull FC fans evening in the week running up to the Derby at the KC, fans should get their tickets early as recent events have sold out in two days.”

Meanwhile, Hull’s James Rule commented, “The fans forums have proved to be incredibly popular over the last 18 months and this is something we have been keen to commit to as part of our various new communication avenues, giving supporters a direct interface with the club.

“However, between our media team, FC Voices and KCFM, we highlighted the importance of providing something a bit different with this mid-season forum, particularly with us having three forums a year and we felt the opportunity to put on an evening at Hull Truck Theatre was ideal for that.”

He also said, “May I also take the opportunity to thank Stuart Cummings for agreeing to join us at the forum as our special guest and I am sure supporters are looking forward to speaking to him directly.”

The last three forums have been extremely popular and demand for tickets has been high, with all three selling out within 2 days.

Tickets for the latest forum on Tuesday 13th July (Live 7pm-9pm; Audience required at theatre by 6.45pm) will go on sale on Saturday 29th May from the Hull FC Retail stores at the KC Stadium and on Paragon Street at a cost of just £2.

FC Voices will also be donating funds from the ticket sales to the RNLI.

A good move

What is the capacity?

440

Excellent work to go for a different venue and get Cummings there. Good idea making it 2 hours as well - 1 hour for Friday v Sunday and re-signing Paul Cooke, then 1 hour for original questioning. Does the venue have a multimedia projector for Agar's Powerpoint slide presentation?

No, he is going to get players on stage to recreate training drills instead

You can't smoke inside!

Am I the only one cynical enough to think it has been planned to take place BEFORE the derby for a reason?

Happy to see it on a Tuesday though as Its always a struggle to make them on a Wednesday and the change of venue is a good idea. I hope Cummings is bringing his tin hat!

ha so Robins night in derby week will be kicked out its slot to accomodate this, nice

ooh i can hear GML seething from here

they can just move their "morgan out" night to another night simple.

Dont forget tickets on sale tomorrow from the club shops but they both close early at around 2-00pm for stock taking so get there early.

Thats typical isnt it, why cant they shut on a mid week day for stock taking !

Yep I agree probably they want an end of month figure? Sorry not much we can do about that one.
