id rather go to bell vue over odslum anyday of the week, yes ok its has a big capacity but now when only 7k turn up you can here a pin drop looks terrible when its 3/4 empty and no atmosphere. with regards the stadium news that your sticking with your project now is moving to oakwell a possibillity till the new stadium is built to ensure you stay in super league other wise i could see the wildcats losing there licence.

Think the grass at Craven Park was just left a bit longer then usual to help it out during the current dry spell we are having. You don't get this recognition for nothing. www.thisishullandeastriding.co.u ... ticle.html www.engagesuperleague.co.uk/article.php?id=11876 www.huttoncranswicktoday.co.uk/s ... 5729163.jp

Getting a bit nervous are we, hence the "lash out" response.

Last time I checked, grass length wasn't on the Franchise criteria list! Just get on with the ground-share and you will be fine!

I see the Wakefield fans are getting nervous.
Yes our pitch looked a bit "dry" on Saturday night i agree, however our groundsman has won several awards for our pitch , now about our ground , we had the chance to play at the KC but declined this offer as we are an East Hull club ( yes i know the club originated in West Hull many moons ago), Our fans create a fantastic atmosphere at Craven Park the East Stand on their day can be very loud this lifts the players they have said so themselves if your fans or players find this intimidating tough!!! it called an atmosphere and money can't buy it , even if you did have any money which you don't you still couldn't buy it , so you will never have one .

As for two SL clubs in Hull ...our derby is the only true derby in SL the atmosphere is awesome , the rivalry and banter between the fans in the city is crazy all year we are a proper RL city.

Lets face it you have been under the eye of the RFL for years and have had several warnings which your club seemed to have ignored, i don't come to wakey anymore your ground is awful there is no atmosphere maybe that will improve if Castleford let you play in their new ground, the pundits have hinted at you both merging anyway so who knows .

Whoooosh.

Only your second post as well.

Well that's a coincidence because I don't go to your place anymore because it is a crap hole and the last time I went we came out after the match to find my mates car had been nicked.

Our ground MAY be crap,but, you would not be forced into, by brain dead stewards who seemed hell bent on causing a riot, an area of the ground(score board end) where you could see nothing of either try line or experience anything of the so called "Atmosphere". This happened to us LAST season and I swear I and a lot of others will never set foot in the STADIUM? again.

i need a drink..i agree with gaslight!

How ironic a fan of club who have massive debts educate us on money!

You was forced into the ground ?. The score board end is the South stand and i agree the view is poor, however it is not much better stood at the bottom of the "away" end behind the sticks at your ground.
Our atmosphere is awesome when the East stand are in full voice look at Leeds last week and Bradford this week when we were on sky it was a brilliant atmosphere , your fans are way to quiet.

I believe that you and Castleford will not have your own grounds due to finances , you can't really warrant two new stadiums so close to each other.
I think you will ground share and once the dust has settled the RFL will force a merger between you both and they will bring in an extra club from the NL , the pundits are already hinting at it now .

Both Hull clubs are known for their fantastic away support and we generate a lot of money for other clubs , your away support is embarrassing to be honest but you are not alone .

Hull has the only true derby in SL . It must be frustrating for your fans regarding the stadium news but i think it is best for you if you do ground share and merge it seems the way forward for you , enjoy the rest of the season.

some places only have a village idiot, hull is large enough it would appear to hire you.

Tell you what FC and HKR share and then merge, we'll wait and see if its a success and then we might think about it (not)!
