May be we are sitting at the opposite end of the East stand, because on Sunday at the south end there were many many kids of all ages from about 2 to 18, i'd say 30% were kids.

May be instead of charging kids £5 we wshould let them all in free? I would support that!

3,500 fans......750 from Hull, 2,750 others......275 kids under 18 (believe me, the bouncy castle in the players bar had about 25 in there, so I am being generous with that evaluation.
I too would offer free admission to all U15's (with an adult in tow of course), but I would also offer every student at St Marys a free ST for next year.

I disagree with that number - 275 is to low. Maybe being at the north end an close to L&L, you probably didn't see that the familys tend to gravitate to the south end.

Maybe 800 (30%) is to high, but there was a good head count of kids around the south end.

The problem with kids is they run around a lot and give the impression there are more of them. I will bow to the underestimate, but would be stunned if it was more than 350.....compare that with say St'elens.........Next time they are on SKY, look at the first 3 rows in both terraced ends.....all Kids.

I think you will find they are all midgets, or inflatable. the real kids inhabit the rows 4 to 10!

"... forward, forward..."

Anyway, back to the original post - great that there will soon be a forum. Not ideal for me that it's midweek, but I'll do everything possible to get there.

But we've got lots of old gits who don't move at all, so no one notices there are tens of thousands of us!

i imagine Gutterfax standing up and saying "i have just a couple of questions" then pulling out a list like an andrex advert

That will be a good time to get the drinks in

He asked BM a question last time about where we would finish in the league and got firmly put in his box
