It would be the most pointless opposition.
I wouldn't be surprised if hkr moved the Leeds game and any big ko game.

Not sure how the Football league would feel about that arrangement, would the KC pitch hold up to 3+ games a fortnight being played on it?

I agree, its a bit like Grimsby playing Man Utd, well it would be if Grimsby regularly stuffed Utd and finished above them in the league 4 out of the last 6 years, and Utd didn't own old trafford. But apart from that you have a point

Maybe this is part of the big 'masterplan'
City in the Premiership, get a new 'sole purpose football stadium'
Rovers move into KC and ground share...
All three chairmen get 'into bed' with each other..
It all seems to point that way with Hudgells major KC advertising etc... People got over him sponsoring the screen, now they're getting over/dealing with him sponsoring the East Stand, what is the next step??

Strange that no one from either club or the SMC is quoted'"
More like the idea has been mooted and explored by rovers and someone has leaked it(Larry?).
From what i gather its very very possible and being looke at as a viable option.

Who'd fund a new football stadium, Allam hasn't got the cash and City are losing money hand over fist. IF and its a massive IF a bespoke premiership ground was the goal, the most cost effective way would be to use the KC and build a new rugby ground somewhere else.
Hudgell also sponsors a stand at Elland road and has sponsorship at numerous SL grounds, don't see anything in that other than getting sponsorship on TV.

You omitted this bit: " once building work starts at Craven Park. "
So they could mean the 2015 derby game

You would think Europe would be doing all they could to tighten their belts.

I'm guessing you have checked and not assuming we dont because of our poor excuse for a stadium? We have ambulent disabled facilities in the West stand. The West stand facilities are accessed through a lift to the main seating area. I know some Bradford fans who regularly use the West Stand disabled area. If you wish me to pass on their contact details it won't be a problem.

| Quote: pmarrow "What I want to know is, why all of a sudden are Rovers wanting to do this. I know they are rumours of the loss of the Golf Stand but they haven't exactly sold out a derby at there place with it anyway. With the lack of movement on there North stand and it appears no one knows were Mr Allams money has gone I wonder if Rovers are in serious financial trouble. They is no way a few years ago Rovers would have wanted to do this, so why the sudden change of heart ?
The bottom line is the directors "personal loans" are coming to an end. Getting a 20,000 crowd at the KC could really help Rovers achieve over 10k average and help them break even. The mind ponders.'"
We haven't sold out a derby at Craven Park because of our poor facilities SIMPLE. Now regardless of the outcome of the Golf stand we are losing some capacity because of the building work in the North. The golf has to come down for the building work to commence which means a loss of 1261 seats. If the Golf stand is fit for use we will lose 1600 standing spaces as the Golf stand will sit in front of the South stand
To imply its because of financial trouble is a pipe dream but it hasn't stopped you saying it for the past 5 years

| Are the seats with extra leg room and have arms? Serious question cos if they are I apologise, if not then they aren't ambulent.
