I'm travelling 1,000 miles in a couple of weeks. Good enough for you?

But travelling thousands of miles instead? I know Rovers fans are backwards but you are taking it to a whole new extreme my friend.

| Quote: Mrs Barista "The shortfall vs the capacity of 10500 quoted recently on here was 1,050. FC's unsold tickets was less than that. So Rovers failed to sell out their tickets. Disgraceful indeed.
How long does a club get to sell the tickets the away club haven't bought? There may not have been enought time? It's funny you have filled both ends previously when you were expected to win and were doing well in the league.... Some fans don't like to sit in mixed stands.
As I've said before I can't relly condone the increased charge, how much was the South Stand in 2007?

I never said the whole ground was a disgrace.

Yes, and we took more to Headingley and Wheldon Road. That says more about Craven Park than it does about Hull FC fans' loyalty.
Yes, your ground is a disgrace. If it wasn't, then how come you lot can't muster up 10,000 fans on your own in it?
The fact that you only attracted 8,500 home fans to your biggest game of the year is either a testament to your support base or a testament to how poor your stadium is. Take your pick.'"
Our attendances this year have been pretty consistent. Using the state of the ground, which by the way isn't as bad as you make out, as an excuse doesn't wash with me as you've filled your allocation in the past.

How does that FACT that we also knew we were going to get beat last season (you know, after finishing 11th, the week after the Cup Final, the inevitable Cup Final hangover, and having nothing to play for) go with your theory?
Surely if the reason we didn't sell out our allocation was because we thought we were going to get beat, we wouldn't have come last year as well?
Maybe the FACTS lay somewhere else, like perhaps the people that have been gullible enough to pay nearly double the normal price to go in that stand didn't want to come again, and finally after a few games there you have run out of gullible people to take them up?

Enjoy, I did. So you are prepared to travel all that way, but not to Craven Park? Strange.

See above post. Wouldn't you go to every game if you were as faithful as you make out?

Selective reading syndrome seems to be a real problem in East Hull. Possibly even bigger than Swine Flu

You have run out of enough mugs to pay money to go in that stand from the West of the city to fill it. If Rovers had 10,000 fans of their own, I bet they wouldn't go in that stand.
The "we knew we were going to get beat" repeatedly used by your lot doesn't wash as it was the same situation (if not more so) in the derby game after the cup final last year, but we sold out. I think fans are just fed up of going in that stand. The novelty has worn off. We aren't THAT desperate for the derby to go to a ground and sit in a stand where we can barely see the game.
From an away fans perspective, the ground is as bad as I make out. If the away stand was the East Stand, we'd have filled it.
