For context, about Lewis with one incident yesterday. During the second half you can see him turn round to South Stand beckoning them on. This followed a bottle being thrown towards the pitch from the South Stand (West side). Thankfully it didn?t hit anyone. We were all quick to justify limiting Rovers ticket allocation and the segregation, but sadly shows we still have in the odd idiot within our own fan base. I'm actually happy Wigan-Saints is SKYs 3pm game of choice cos another 2.5 hours down the pub wouldent be good for our fixture. Overall the two games have gone off without incident though. Even with the same rules practically we could make Weet Upper reserved next time as that gives 500 more seats. I also think both clubs need to get on with having some kind of loyalty points system so that the fans who go away all the time get priority for the away ends at the MKM and Craven Park.

Hull will overtake rovers in a couple of years. You saw yesterday how massive we are. 16-17k fans and owners worth half a billion. We dwarf you in terms of potential and the owners are here for the club, not investment land.
You've shouted us down at every opportunity from the early 2000s saying we'd never reach the dizzy heights of SL, then we'd be relegated in our first season, then we was going bust, then owning our own ground was a pipedream then we'd never get crowds over 10k crowds, we'd never get to another final, what's the latest? We'll never win a trophy? I'm enjoying a ride I've never been on before, you may overtake us you may not, I don't particularly care. Rovers are building a home with every amenity and facility we need all under one roof, we are selling 11,200 tickets every week and have a board that care and a team playing for the badge and each other every week. Rovers aren't going anywhere, and I hope Hull build a team to be up there challenging with us.

We were all quick to justify limiting Rovers ticket allocation and the segregation, but sadly shows we still have in the odd idiot within our own fan base. Was that the one where Lewis started playing a mock violin towards South stand? It certainly riled a few people around me that one. I saw the bottle flying through the air (I sit in S5). It came from somewhere towards the back of South stand and landed somewhere in the first few front rows, so someone probably got a little drenching. It was probably due to it being derby day, and to the way the game was unfolding, but there did seem to be more than the usual quota of over-excited people near me yesterday. Around 15 minutes into the second half, three young guys (in their early twenties I would say) suddenly came and sat in our row, no idea where they had been for the first-half. Safe to say they were 'well-oiled' with one of them 'seven sheets to the wind'. They made a lot of noise (and shouted into their phones a good deal) for around fifteen minutes before thankfully disappearing who knows where! Although I'm fairly sure they weren't the ones throwing the bottle, don't think they were capable to taking aim! Derby day definitely brings out the worse in some elements of our fan base. Some seem to crawl out for this one game only each year. Thankfully nothing major seemed to erupt yesterday.

The bottle was thrown onto the track around the pitch (no one was hit) Lewis was walking towards the South Stand and then turned a gestured with the mock violin. Love the fact our fans are backing the team all the way, but don?t want to have anyone there throwing bottles. I saw the bottle flying through the air (I sit in S5).

The council handing you the land is a big factor in the investors coming on board though, in an alternative plot line Hudgell could still be trying to sell Rovers or have given up losing money by now. But likewise the council getting a KCOM windfall and building the MKM was a stroke of luck for us (unlilkely that Hetherington and co wouldent haven bought us without it) Money makes the world go round and both clubs are benefiting at present. Having sat through 90s games when both clubs could barely afford to stock the portakabin retail store I will enjoy the good times we are having.

| I don't understand how Cust got a red card even if he did make contact with morgue.
He wasn't trying to make a tackle, he was running at speed to try and gather a loose ball as was morgue. There was no intent to wrap his arms or bend his back as he wasn't intending on making a tackle.
They both had an equal part to play in an accidental clash, it just so happened that Morgue got the ball in his hands a fraction before Cust. If Cust had got the ball then went on to hit his head i would it still have been a red?
Seems incredibly harsh to me, especially as most of the strict rules from last year seem to have been quietly shelved until now.

Love the semtiment of the post and i cant wait for the next few years, although we wasn't handed anything for free, we bought the ground back for over £1m after selling it for a few hundred thousand and the surrounding land wasnt included and something we'll have to stump up for to build the training ground and amenities. Back in 2005 Hull where getting gates of 16-17k Rovers 2.5k, Rovers are getting gates of 11.2k Hull 13-14k. We've never since the 80s been on such an even footing and it's exciting. Whether our crowds take a dip is an unknown that Rovers will have to navigate but whats a surety is Jake will talk Rovers down that's his mindset, he'll constantly hit us with the big brother mentality and quote bank balances but what we know is the salary cap, we both will be spending up to the cap and both paying marquee players, it then comes down to coaching, the training and science. I can't wait for the rivalry to step up a notch, hopefully it brings the best out of both clubs and rugby league as a sport benefits from it.
