Oh please. The North stand is an OK place to watch rugby. You lot didn't buy the tickets still available there, which means you didn't want to watch your team play Rovers on Saturday. Everything else is just smokescreen or tangents from you. You think we like giving James & Kath our money after the various stunts FC have pulled over the years? Not really, but FFS I'm not going to let it stop me supporting my team against you lot, like I have done since god knows when (even when I knew we were going to get well and truly stuffed). That's what support means.

If you'd bought every available OK seat, but left the dodgy South Terrace as a wasteland, I'd give you all the credit in the world. But you didn't. Get over it, methinks you protest too much







PS: Next derby pop me a PM and I'll post you some sunglasses. Bless.

I never said it wasn't. I just said it wasn't as good as watching it from the North Stand at the KC, something you claimed was "just as good as".


In that case, we'll bump up the price of the North Stand by 70% of the normal price and see how many loyal Rovers fans turn up to watch the game




We weren't selling North Stand tickets in our club shop ASAIK. The fans like to be sat together, not all over the shop. Part of being at the game is getting the atmosphere.


Why? So when we score they can go flying?
Will you pop us some binoculars as well?

I wouldn't mind, but it's not like the Rovers fans managed to fill the North Stand either. That's embarrassing.

We have won 7 of the last 10 derbies....

They have bigger crowds then us....

I'm quite hapy with things as they are thank you very much

Those North stand seats where only available at the KR end of the job and last year it was very difficult to get them.

Plus you had a around 100 left and as you charge the same price for all your seats at Craven Park. There is a price hike there as well, £20 the same as the main side price. You lot know how to charge I will give you that its the same price as the KCs North and south stands, except you get wet and it bounces.



Look I don't like giving Kaff and co any of my money either but lifes a bitch, but what stunts have they every pulled on KR ?

Have they ever banned your mascots FROM THE KC ?

even denying him the right to sit in his costume in the stand ?

Have your cheerleaders been banned from the KC ?

Have you every been charged 70% more then anyone else to watch a game ?

Do FC not give you over 3k tickets for the KC derby ?

There is only one club acting in a very juvenile and infantile way and its pathetic, it makes the whole game look bad. The rest of SL the clubs get along and work for the common goal, I suspect that many of them are getting fed up with it as well.

The thing is 1st one will inevitably change, the other will remain constant.

Yes i'm sure this time next year we will have won 9 out of the last 12

I would imagine Hudge asked him to post it on his behalf.

Go to the Rovers shop, or phone them up, buy a ticket, go to the match - how hard is that? I bought my KC derby tickets direct from FC after we'd filled your North Stand, it really wasn't complicated and it meant I got to see the game. Everything else you go on about is just pitiful excuses I'm afraid - ooo, the Golf Stand hasn't got a roof and the angle of seating isn't quite as good as the KC. Hmmm, yes, I can really see how that'd put you off, nothing to do with your league position or fear of watching FC lose to Rovers. Dear oh dear.

Rovers fans not buying the Golf Stand tickets is a swerve. We had circa 8,500 fans there, we have lower home support than you for decades of reasons... but they all turned up on Saturday. You lot on the other hand? Well only about 6-7% of your home fanbase wanted to support your team in the local derby. Well done.



Anyway, like the other bloke said, to be honest I really don't care that much about crowds as long as we're winning and higher in the league. The fact you had a bigger home gate wasn't that depressing for me in 1980, 1984 or 1985, amongst others, and I'm sure it won't bother me in the years to come either

Less than 25% of your home fan base supported Rovers 3 years ago. Well done you

Bollox - we averaged approx 3000 in 2006 - that's between 35%-40% of our 2009 average so far.

Don't change the subject, yet another tangent. I live in London and work abroad most weeks so only get to 3 or 4 games a season (mainly the derbies for some reason...), but I still buy a season ticket and have done for years. So yes, well done me, thanks for the pat on the back, my own loyalty is unquestionable

Here's your free maths (and history lesson):

25% of 8,500 = 2,125

3 years ago (2006 season), Rovers average home gate was 3,100 (bit like a few of your Super League gates prior to your merger).

What was it in 2005?

Dunno, but irrelevent because you said 3 years ago (2006).

Pah, another plastic fan

I actually meant over 3 years ago. My bad.

Ok then 36% of your fan base can claim to be loyal since 2006. Congratulations.

Great Thread this


Not content with bitching about each other on your own boards, you feel the need to invect the VT as well.....

The VT needs it.







Don't think a Quins v Skolars thread would generate quite as much interest really would it?!

Over 3 years ago? 10,421 season average

Just answer the question

Say what now?

You come onto a thread discussing the Hull derby and expect anything else? How many other threads on the first 2 pages of this forum are discussing either of the 2 Hull clubs?

...not nearly enough

The Hull FC fans on this thread are pathetic.

moan moan moan... the view is not good, we don't like the chairman, it might rain.... whine whine whine

They really are symptomatic of the plastic sky armchair fan.

Terrible.

Remind what our average attendance is again?
