Hull FC has initiated a full investigation into technical failures at the MKM Stadium following a Betfred Super League match against the Castleford Tigers. During the game, the stadium’s two large screens, match clock, and shot clock became unusable. 

As a result, players and supporters were forced to rely on the referee’s whistle to track time. The club apologized to fans, stating the issues were “beyond the control of the club,” and is working with stadium operations to prevent future occurrences.
