Did you get rid of all the voices in your head? Do you now miss them and the things that they said?: |

| Quote: nottinghamtiger "Maybe HKR should be asking themselves WHY away supporters in general choose not to travel to Craven Park. For me, it's the stewards who seem intent on trying to instigate trouble and then when it occurs react with unnecessary and over-the-top violence. To be honest, I find their presence intimidating and threatening so choose not to go.
Perhaps if HKR made the experience more positive for travelling supporters, more might attend?
I'm also not paying money to HKR so they can continue to fund the wages of foreign players signed by manipulating the system at every opportunity. Maybe if they showed more of a committment to British RL I'd be more supportive.'"

haha, have to say I have never heard of a fan refusing to follow their club away as they disagree with the opponents recruitment policy! Funny as!!
Re facilities, the North stand isn;t bad as long as weather is ok, decent view. seated and has a bar etc dedicated to it etc. I have stood in far worse!
Hopefully when we get the new North stand it will be better and the current Nth stand can become a family/no alocohol stand at the Sth end. Then there should be no excuse, though I am sure some will find one!

| Quote: Judder Man "Instead of the author complaining of poor away support, perhaps he should compain of the lack of support to the british rugby league player. Next season, am I correct in saying that your club could possibly field a full compliment of 13 overseas players next season.'"
No but we'll have 18 hull lads in the squad is that enough??? |

Just my personal opinion and one of the reasons I won't go to Craven Park.
I feel that the money I would give to HKR would be used to fund the wages of players hindering the development of British RL.
It's a bit like the reason I don't buy eggs laid by battery hens - I don't want to fund something I don't agree with. |

Very few of whom you'll actually see unless you go and watch the reserves. |

I tend to think
Sherriffe
Hall
Welham
Latus
Hodgson
Hodgson
Taylor
Cox
Wheeldon
Netherton
Horne
Will all feature and play a big part plus Murrell and Watts on our homegrown register. Yeah we've got a number of over seas players but it's not to the detriment of our youngsters in fact the likes of Taylor and cox are learning from The newtons and galeas of this world and will eventually replace them |

Sherriffe - interesting that you need to sign an overseas full-back if he is going to play
Hall - Should play.
Welham - will play.
Latus - only 12 appearances this year.
Hodgson - Done well this year.
Hodgson - Will keep one of your other wingers out
Taylor - has played well but will struggle to get a game if everyone is fit.
Cox - only played 4 times this year.
Wheeldon - should play
Netherton - should play.
Horne -we'll see.
Trouble is not the number of British players you have, but the number of non-British players. Next year you will be able to field a full 13 of non-British players:
Taulapa
Webster
Lovegrove
Newton
Withers
Green
Dobson
Clinton
Fisher
O'Hara
Paea
Vella
Galea
Absolute disgrace.

Newton, Vella and Fisher are all gone next year but........
What does any of this have to do with the poor travelling support of Cas?

As said earlier, it's one of the reasons I don't go to Hull KR. Don't want to fund their policy of signing non-British players, which I feel harms the prospects of British RL.
That's my personal opinion, and only one of the reasons I don't go to Craven Park (the stewards being the other). Not saying it's why other fans don't go, you'll have to ask them.

I just don't like Craven Park. BV may be a dump but at least you are near the pitch and get to use the same facilities as the home fans. At KR you are made to feel like cattle.'" Try going to games instead of listening to hear-say it will help you stop sounding idiotic. |

Do you not think the SS is miles away from the pitch? |

Yes it was the stewards who refused to sit down in a seating stand.......Oh wait (We have this problem with you lot EVERY time.). |
