Hi Hilary, I was very interested to see mention of the above. At the corner of Hessle Road and South Boulevard there is a commemorative statue of a fisherman, his right arm raised to the sky. It was indeed a terrible tragedy. If anyone is interested in a more detailed account I can recommend the following websites http://yorkshirepride.portland.co.uk/hull/page7.shtml http://www.tcb.co.uk/gene/gamecock.htm Jean
