Home fans could get into the north stand without any problem. Any away fans that turned up at the turnstile at the north end of the ground were sent away and told to join the one very long queue at the one turnstile that supposedly catered for away fans.
It was pretty shabby really, and it is the only ground I can think of where the away fans are treated so differently to the home fans.

I had my Rovers shirt on under a combat jacket there was nothing to identify me as a home fan. I already had my ticket, went to the turnstile and straight in, a couple of Wakey fans went through at the same time no problem.
Like I said something clearly went wrong. If possible a letter or e-mail to the club will help to make sure that it doesn't happen agai. It's rare for clubs to bring such a good following to Craven Park so Rovers are not going to want to jeopardise that for the future. |

I never turn up before 2:50pm and have NEVER had a problem seeing kick off.
As to quality of the ground or seating, I can take it from Wigan, FC or Hudds who play in good quality stadia, but WAKEFIELD  , watching a game in a landfill would be better than Belle Vue |

Good home support though. You are heading in the right direction.'"
That side of my family are Wakefield fans, hence my comment. |

Perhaps you can turn up 10 mins before kick off and get in if you're a home fan. We were stuck for 30 mins in a queue with only 2 turnstiles open.
Perhaps we can return the compliment when you come to BV and see how you like it!

HULL KINGSTON ROVERS is my religion, Craven Park is my church and Jordan Abdull is my God: |

| Quote: Walrus "We have stopped going to this away fixture after last year.
Getting shouted to stop standing every 2 minutes, pi**ed wet through seating, poor organisation, fans getting thrown out after 5 minutes for standing.

Imagine that, getting thrown out for contravening health and saftey laws. Who'd have thought it? |

Oh come on - being a nuisance and breaking the law are something completely different. The problem seems to be that the stewards only work in black & white (if you'll excuse the phrase!  ) |

I don't think there's any doubt that something went wrong and it's fair comment for that to be raised. We often slate other clubs for poor away followings (and feeble excuses for not coming) so when a club does bring a good number, as Wakey did yesterday, Rovers needs to get it right. We want these good people to come back next season.
I've no doubts that the club feel the same way and will be looking closely into what happened and will try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Now that's fair comment would be nice if that came from HKR club officially
What bother me yesterday was a entire full section of seats empty in front of me with stewards sat at each end it wasn't untill i reminded them that theres was still a couple hundred or more fans outside there decided to let people sit there like you have said it does needs looking at properly for future fans coming to CR |

Really 
If its not safe to stand up at the back, how is it then safe to walk up and down the wet steps as proven yesterday with a young girl slipping on her back and being very fortunate not to hurt herself.

I would hope not, with 2 of our best players being unable to play from the first set of 6 losing to kr by 13 points away with them at full strength we are extremely happy and proud and very much looking forward to our home game with our best players in
