There must be hell of a lot of skirting boards in east Hull, when they played cas at the Northern rail Final at Blackpool there were 1700 Robins and 7000+ Tigers.

Where have they all come from, we still averaged 5000 when we were relegated in both seasons 2004 and 2006.

I think the football song is true - you only watch when your'e winning., watch when your'e winning.

Easy when you are semi-successful, you had crowds of less than 2000 before you were in Super league, Robins not in the same class for loyalty.

Now lets take into consideration population size, the fact that bar Hull FC, you have no major rugby league club within a 40 mile radius west, north or south. Oh, and the fact that you've been out of SL so long you've got bandwaggoners. Oh and the fact you've been relatively successful since promotion.

Just a fair few factors why you should have a higher average attendance.

I don't blame cas fans for not going to craven park. £20 to get in and it's the worst view in superleague. Why tell me to grow up? You don't like my comments then don't come on this forum blabbing your mouth. Muppet.

Oh and yes your ground is a doss house. So is ours but at least were trying to get a new one. You just want to make yours look pretty.

Also ask most superleague fans where they would rather go. Our place or yours, I think you will find they would rather go to Cas.

Yeah because a couple of gap years is the same as 10 years of the backend of the RL world
I can agree with that. If we were out for the length you were our crowd would of dropped.

Yes your TRYING to get a new ground hows that going by the way at the end if the day you can throw attendance stars round once our improvements are done we will be a B and the only place u can't see the game is the scoreboard end u can see perfectly fine from the north stand funny ain't it Leeds, Wigan , Warrington all the big teams fill the north stand so let's say no more.

In HKR's case I don't think it's all about winning because they were doing that pretty much every week in their last few NL seasons but still drew poor crowds.

Maybe there was never an appetite for NL while Hull FC were in SL and getting back into the same league as their rivals restored lost pride/interest around East Hull but for whatever reason attendances at NCP soared immediately after promotion and have continued to show steady improvement.

More significantly neither home or away support seems to drop significantly during poor spells of form and in that respect we Cas fans could not claim to have shown the same solidarity over the last 2-3 years.

We might deride the majority of Robins fans as 'Johny come latelies' but it looks like they're here to stay and I wish we could say the same about the couple of thousand who have fallen off our bandwagon since 2007.
