When he was asked the question, his first words were "it's nothing personal but...", which immediately made me think it obviously was. It reminded me of the time he was asked if Hull KR were going to sign Paul Cooke. "it's news to me" was his reply.

Sad, bitter pathetic little runt

The thing is thou,some of us want to go and support our team.I dont really understand fans who refuse to go?.I admit i have never stood in the Amsterdam stand and never will but it as not stopped me from going to the dump.A few of us always go in the golf stand and have found it pretty easy to get tickets for that stand at the same price,which we are happy with.Hudge is not as smug as he thinks.

Mmmmm ... so stand improvements would mean less police & stewards would it ?? that cost will always be there , same as at the the kc . at least we rip all away fans off at the same level ( aside from the £1.00 charity charge which we all pay !! ) . the issue my friend is not a lot of hull fans want to grease the palm of that smug get who seems to want to get one over on us at every opportunity . as for the sky yep, glad it will be on i can support my team without extra funding your lot . you will no doubt retort with : we are true supporters & will always come to the kc etc , etc . would not matter if you didnt !! we would still get at least 15000 of our own support & hardly any police costs at all !! face facts , hull kr are under supported & need cash to survive at their current level . i think he should be encouraging us a little harder to help balance the books !!

This just shows he still has that chip on his shoulder and everything slightly aimed at us in a positive manner from him should be treated with contempt. Hudge the Cabbageman strikes again.

For years I had no problem going to Craven park.....loved it.....loved the build up....loved the banter on the day down holderness road in the pubs.....then came along the fck wit HUDGE.

Not only does he try to FCK me over by increasing the ticket ONLY for Hull FC fans.....but the FCK WIT wants me to stand in BELGIUM to watch the match.

WELL HE CAN FCK OFF.....

To the Hull FC supporters who support this.....

The Grudge just likes to find ways to turn us over,thats all.

I hope people do realise that the building of the North stand will be paid for in the future by us.....the Hull FC fans.

The stand will only get near its capacity when we go there.

No other club in SL will fill it.

So, lets fck em up BY NOT GOING THERE. SIMPLES.

You misunderstand. The complaint, I assume is about value, not absolute cost. £18 (?) is poor for the South stand, but you'd be happier, I assume, to pay that or even slightly more for better facilities.




There does seem to be a lot of bitterness. Is it still the Paul Cooke thing? But you do have genuine cause for complaint about the South stand. Unfortunately, it is, for now, all we have to cope when extra away fans are expected. Rovers probably do milk/extract maximum value from it, but that's how capitalism works. Hotel prices in Cardiff will likely be higher for Magic Weekend than they would have been in its absence and so on.

Not if fans of all other clubs pay less.


No. It's the regular crass and insulting comments and statements made by your diminutive chairman at every available opportunity in both public and private.


Indeed. And the concomitant part of capitalism is the right of the consumer not to purchase a product or service which they consider to be overpriced.
