| Quote: HKRCraig "1. Its a Derby game...anything can happen. Even if the players don't want to play for Agar they will play for the pride in their shirt and derby loyalities on Saturday...a very dangerous prospect (for KR) I think.
2. Winning against all the odds is the sweetest victory.
3. We waited 10+ years to have a meaningful derby game back... don't get complacent with the priveledge.
4. True supporters are there in the darker days win/lose, rain/shine.
5. Its embarassing that you haven't even sold out your allocation. Lets show the RL world it IS the biggest derby game by having another sell out.
6. If you win you still have a good chance of getting into the playoffs.'"
Nah, if it was on the sunday i may have listened on the radio, now its been moved to the saturday im out of town thank god.  |

I'm sure if we can take 3000 to Cas (when we are playing crap) IF the facilities were any good and you could see the game, we would easily sell our allocation for a game just across the river, even with present form. Saying that I will be there!! ![]()
Your point is nonesensical. Our ground is officially better then Cas'

Boll0cks. You're the first person that I've ever heard say that.

Yes we would...then again we go there every year and have our tickets booked when they come out.
ATEOTD, the P&O ferry docked would give you a better view. And another thing, there's not a chance in hell I'm taking my 8 year old son to a game that is volatile at the best of times, let alone at 6pm on a Saturday night.

Oh it's official then, that article confirms it 
Tbh I don't even think Wheldon Road is that bad, and I certainly wouldnt put it in the same bracket as BV, CP, BF. Imo its a good old fashioned rugby league ground, you get a good view of the game from all four sides of the ground, the atmosphere is great, and it homes a great set of supporters imo. Compare that to craven park, where you can only visibly see the game from 3 sides, banter with opposition fans is awful, and not to mention the fact that youve got a temporary golf stand to home away supporters (unless youre Hull.FC of course). Yes you may have plans in place to improve your facilities, but at present youre ground is knowhere near as good as Cas'.

Beats me, thats the RFL for you. I presume its because they don't regard Wheldon Road to be 'sl standard', but neither is craven park. Fair enough you may have plans in place to improve your ground, but does that mean that right now, youre ground is better? No. |

Meaning that they see ours as SL standard, and therefore better.
[iIt must be, because we were not mentioned in this statement[/i
[i See first point[/i |

Nope, the RFL are referring to the other clubs' plans to move to new grounds as pledged in their licence applications. Nothing to do with their current grounds and their standards compared to Craven Park.

Not necessarily. I think you are misunderstanding the RFL's letters to the five clubs.
I am not saying Rovers are in danger of losing their licence, but neither does the recent story indicate you are completely safe. |

So if they are in their current ground at the next round of applications, will they get a franchise? |

Who knows? It depends on any number of things, such as other licence applications. |
