Maybe they just hold special sessions at OT for the media.'"
Must be the same for City because on look north the other night the team were clearly holding some kind of training session at an empty KC.
The atmosphere at the KC is good when we get a decent crowd. I do worry though if they expand the stadium. It will look a bit empty. At least the seats are black and for night gmes it shouldnt be too bad. I worry even more though for City if they expand and then eventually get relegated. That really would be a poor show imo. Its ofetn been the case that the atmosphere has been poor. Even super city fan Burnsie has commented on it.
Grounds need standing areas. All seaters are rubbish grounds if you are talking atmosphere alone.

Could you imagine the problems Justine would of had at the KC derby if we had been louder? I think that backs up if the ground was full it creates an awesom atmosphere just look at the donny semi aswell

| Quote: Raggytash "You think that Leeds playing at Headingly is damaging their fanbase or on the field success? Has Huddersfield had unbelievable crowd growth and on field success since moving to Galpharm? Has international RL improved since the inclusion of Quins/Sheffield/Gateshead?
Hull's record attendance was set in 1936. 28798 were at the Boulevard. Why don't we get that many at the KC? Safety restrictions? Because of small minded people that don't like all seater stadiums?'"
i think headingly is certainly holding leeds back. given the citys population their crowds are poor.
huddersfield with zero real success on the field have grown their crowds every year.
of course if you think halving your average crowds is progress, good luck to you

What an absolute nonsense! Chelseas crowds are poor in comparison to the population and they have a sy ground. And how is Headingly holding Leeds back? They are solvent and are the current World Champions.

Like I said, padded world!
Probably never even set foot in the royal borough either, just read once about the Kings Road.

Poor in comparison to the population of where, exactly?
What was more amusing is the fact you stated Leeds are being held back

No I wasn't actually, I was showing that having a nice all seater stadium and success doesn't guarantee packed attendances. That was the point.

Don't see why I need to explain myself to a jumped up keyboard warrior like you but my cousin lives in Kensington and I have seen Chelsea v Wimbledon at Stamford Bridge. You may claim to be well traveled but it certainly doesn't give any credibility to your arguments.
