The majority stayed away because of the price YOUR club charged us to attend. KR fans coming to the KC get the whole North stand which seats around 4k and they pay the same as those in the opposite south stand. Every club that has visited Craven park has been charged £10 for that "stand" except one , FC

Hmm, where were these 5 figures on Saturday?
FC had bigger gates than Rovers in the 70's and 80's, since when we've spent the best part of two decades out of the top flight, and guess what we still have a smaller home support than you. So what? We are discussing whether FC fans support their team PASSIONATELY enough to come to a derby when near the bottom of the table, and expected to lose.
The Golf Stand seats answer that question. Thanks |

No s**t, well I never!
I kinda reckoned, that if you had managed to attend Craven Park in the National Leagues, perhaps you also managed to follow your side to Hull for a SL fixture. Is that not something Huddersfield fans occasionally do? With or without skateboard! |

It's not even a derby, just a couple of local villages having a biff!  |

All hail the magnificent HKR and their loyal supporters. 
ATEOTD we get over 10,000 every week at home and take decent numbers most weeks away. Over 1000 went to Cas to watch us get caned. With two shocking seasons after a period of relative success I'm quite happy with our crowd levels at present. I really don't see how a few hundred Hull supporters not going to derby game makes us poor fans. Frankly I think it's quite understandable. |

That puts it into context.'" It also puts into context how small and inadequate your ground is. |

Does it need to be any bigger if our neighbours only bring 800. |
