Welcome to The Stoop - The Field of Dreams.......Where Broncos supporters dreams are realised and away supporters dreams are shattered !!!!! 2012 - The Year of The Broncos:



Quote: red chilli "Roofs has responded and responded very well , we have some good home grown talent at Rovers , however we also have some good Aussie players who chose to play for our club , there must have been some attraction for them to come and want to play for our club, i wonder how appealing your club is to potential signings ..............lets face it , you have changed names how many times , your attendance is poop , your away support is poop, your atmosphere is poop, your performance is poop, if the RFL had the courage to admit they had made the "expansion " mistake teams like yours would be relegated , you bring nothing to SL at all, it's rugby Yawnion territory from your neck of the woods , get Widnes & Fax back ,proper RL teams .'"


Whatever.......... c020.gif
....hey here's another idea why don't you merge with your neighbours, call yourselves Hull FC Kingston Rovers and make way for Widnes or Fax that way......

Whose yoof set up that produced all those players you just listed? I only ask because we borrowed scott murrell from Leeds a few years back.....was he on loan at Leeds from your yoof set up?
If this yoof set up is so good and all those players are up to it, why the need to go cap in hand to the RFL for permission to have extra foreign players?

That's a constructive response icon_rolleyes.gif , why would we do that ?, both Rovers & Hull are competetive teams and bring a lot to SL, good home support , fantastic away support from both clubs , attract decent signings , we are a rugby league city , and have the only true derby , now once again what do you have icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

But you asked....

and I replied with a balanced view.......and explained what we had
Quote: red chilli "We will see .'"

Hmmm......to use your own words
Quote: red chilli "That's a constructive response and to continue using your own balanced argument
Quote: red chilli "
Oh what I'd give for a decent debate on this subject. I have no issue with HKR and I actually believe that you do bring something to the table, but so long as you feel the need to troll on these boards you will continue to have your 'arris handed to you on a plate.

It's not too many years since i went to Craven Park and stood in a crowd of around 2000 to see Doncaster beat KR 30-0. It must have been before the 8000 seater bandwagon was built!

FFS it's called progress. icon_rolleyes.gif Did Bradford get slated when they dramatically improved their crowds from 3000 to 15,000 in the space of 3 years?

FWIW I think a successful Doncaster team would be a great asset to SL - good fans, fantastic stadium (from what I've heard - not had the chance to go in person yet), nice area, plenty going for the club.

Re us & Hull merging - considering we attract over 32,000 fans over two games in Hull each year and our combined average attendances have been over 20,000 for the four seasons we've been in SL, IMO that is prove enough that the city is big enough to support two SL teams.

Doncaster will never, ever be in Super League and to be totally honest i do not want to be.
I am not having a beef at true HKR fans, but it is a fact that a certain 'element' have tagged on to them since SL. This is why i prefer CC rugby, you can watch your team and have a laugh with away fans etc and none of the aggro of big crowds.

- Allegations about a bail-out from the RFL when Broncos went bust
- Allowed to move, re-brand etc several times
- The modern day equivilant of 'special dispensation' by having a team literally full of Aussies in the 90's, which makes it all the more annoying for us Rovers fans getting slated now when we have a lot less then you did back in the Matterson, Barwick etc days.

Have we been hit by a Hull virus here.

Roofy should your gripe not be with your mates across the other side of town-they have moved grounds, changed names, even joined up with other clubs.

Do you think the RFL could hide money given to a club-No honestly do you really think that could happen

Crusaders and Catalans are full of Aussies just like yourselves-have a dig at them
