Quote: ccs "A "cultural thing", that's a new one.
I probably went 200+ times to the "old" Craven Park, and just once to the "new" one, when we played our first ever game there.
That was enough for me.'"


I think you will find it has improved since then, I will watch my club anywhere (yes even Swinton next year) but then maybe that's just me!

Quote: Tea Maker "Doesn't stop thousands of you going to Wakey and Cas though does it? Have you even been to CP since the changes to facilities? It's not perfect but we have done a lot more than Cas and Wakey to improve the ground. What about Headingley presumably you enjoy standing in the rain? i would take our ground over some soulless huge concrete bowl to rattle around in. I suggest you try the new north stand and you may be pleasantly surprised.'"


I was there to see Scotland v Aus, so yes I have seen these so called improvements. It is a poor ground by any standard. At least the view from the side at Wakey is unrestricted and I'd rather brave the elements than stretch around obstructions. Cas and Wakey also have the excuse of dating back over 50 years when stadium design technology was primitive to say the least. By the 1980's when the dobbins cesspit was built there was no excuse for new build stands to have restricted views other than cheap penny pinching in the design.

I really don't understand the bitterness towards our small inconsequential club. What have Cas and Wakey done since to their grounds? They look like grouds that date back 50 years, I particulary enjoy standing in pee in the toilets at Cas!

We just don't like you very much, silly. Plus the taxpayers of Hull subsidise your peppercorn rent already, wouldn't want to be boosting your coffers still further surely? icon_wink.gif

Aaah nail on head, why didn't you all just say you didn't like us instead of blaming the facilities, silly sausage! I like this coffee woman!'

I used to go to all derby games at the old CP (plus some rovers games when I went to more non Hull FC RL games) and I also went to early pre SL derbies where we could stand in the east stand at the new CP. I also went to the early derby games in SL there but hudge just basically acted like a complete tw@ over ticket prices, taking great delight in rubbing our noses in the fact he charged us full pops for the zeebrugge stand whilst everyone else got it cheap which completely switched me off going there

When you fly to Perpignan with Ryan Air, the more popular the flight ,the more expensive it becomes, it's about maximising profit, basically Rovers did what any business would do, it's not personal! I'm sure Adam loves it when we turn up to the KC in our thousands. As Mrs Barista rightly says 'It's because you just don't like us'

Spot on Jake.

We've won 5 out of the last 6 derbies, right? No coincidence that they've dramatically lost their appetite for it. How fickle. eusa_naughty.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?:
