Its just this: lets squeeze the poor Bulls fans one last time, eke out as much brass as we can from them before tossing them away. Despite it always going to be a one sided drubbing and not the 'advert for the game' that our portly overlord seems to think it is.
I'm not off. I gave my tickets away. I mean, who wants to see their favourite thing kicked to bits on live TV?

| I'm off. The young lads representing our once great club are not to blame for this predicament and are putting their bodies on the line. The least I can do is go suffer with them. Once more unto the breach...

| I'm not going. It's a travesty that we're playing HKR in the first place. Now we're putting the kids up as cannon fodder I can't support that policy.
Going to matches should provide some enjoyment not be something to suffer IMO. I may have felt obligated to go in the past but now things have gone too far.

| On the makeup of the Summer Bash, I've never really understood why the RFL think that putting by far the two supported clubs in one match is a good idea.
How many of the people who are going to support the Bulls are doing so because we are playing HKR? Very few, I'd wager. Most are going because it's a weekend away, plenty of time for a drink, food and fun, with rugby matches thrown in. Same with the 3500 who have allegedly bought tickets from Hull - surely they are going for the weekend in Blackpool and the craic.
If they'd gone for 1v2, 3v4, and so on, I seriously doubt that the crowd would have been diminished in any way whatsoever. Then they could have had Hull KR vs London as highly competitive match to round out day 1, and then Bulls vs Halifax as a spicy local derby to round out day 2.
As it is, by the time we get to the final game of Day 2 there'll probably be about 500 people in the ground...

| Not going either.
I don't like Blackpool anyway, to be honest, and a day spent wandering around there followed by us being thumped by KR is something I feel I can easily miss and I would do even if the event were free. Having to pay for it is just beyond where my mind is at, at present.

| I'm not going, I may go Sunday for the Sheffied game
I wonder how many Bulls fans, after an afternoon on the lash, will just stay in the pub and watch it on Sky. I think that would probably get my vote even if I'd bought a ticket

| I'm going. To be honest we're going for the beer and the trip away with the lads, we're going to get hammered, we know we are......but the rugby might just sober us up.

| An ex-Bull Lewis Charnock now playing for Barrow is apparently on Hull KR's radar - does anyone have anyone information on the player ie would he be a good signing. Rovers are also intereested in Joe Bullock (Barrow)

| No thanks. I've never seen how these daft fixtures fit into a regular league format and this year is grossly unfair on our club even before we imploded. In any case Hull KR must be odds on to take us to the cleaners again.
Feel sorry for anyone going to watch that!

We only had him on loan at the back end of last season from Saints. To be honest, I liked him. The sort of hard working little half back that whilst not spectacular, he puts full effort in and has enough skill to play the position without looking out of place. Sort of player I think we could really do with now to be honest, a right little tough nut. Not convinced he'd improve Rovers' squad that much though with the likes of Abdull, Ellis, Dockar-Clay & Lunt already there.

Watched Barrow a good few times this season and Charnock has been excellent. Bullock has been immense for the last few seasons, hard to tell how he'd go at Championship but he certainly wouldn't take a backwards step!
Can't see why either would leave to play periodically with you though, can't see them displacing anyone in your current squad.
