Thank god for another rational person. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), you're not Hudge. |

| Quote: rover49 "Not happy, I don't care if the capacity at CP is only 8,000, we should not give up home advantage, we are still away at their ground no matter what the seating arrangements are and will be outnumbered fan wise as though it was an FC home game.
My worry is that we are likely to be without a win for a few games going into this fixture on current play.'"
FWIW I completely agree. However if it is to be switched, it needs to be done in the most profitable way, otherwise what's the point?
I'm sure a few fans from both sides will cut off their noses to spite their faces. I won't be one of them. |

I don't have a problem with the switch or potentially sitting in the North Stand, nor do I have a problem with Rovers fans sitting in the South and/or East Stand. Not sure why anyone would, to be honest.
I would imagine the potential attendance would be more along the lines of the friendly of a few weeks ago than a Hull FC home league derby. Not necessarily because supporters are against the switch, just that as the Challenge Cup and play offs have shown in recent years, people are less willing to pay on the day than they were in the past.

I'd suggest 15k is a decent guesstimate, 7k more than CP would hold. Say thats worth an additional £150k. Take Hulls 10% on ticket sales, cost of stadium rental, KC security (or is that part of the rental cost?), loss of bar / parking revenue etc. The margins might not be that great. Worth the loss of home advantage & the ill feeling it's bound to cause amongst some fans?

| Quote: Little Robin Redhead "What's the difference between the West & East stand capacity wise?
As long as I'm not behind the sticks I'll be happy.
3 of the people I stand with at CP have said they won't go if it's at the KC, I can see there being quite a few more with the same attitude.'"
The those three people are a bit silly, perhaps you should come and stand with us.
If Milan and Inter can manage it, I'm sure we can. |

Well, all the other Rovers fans who're advocating financial sense by suggesting we take the East and South stands.
Oh, OK. You and East-Sard. (Told you he was OK.) |

I'm not really bothered were I stand it wud be a bit weird sitting in the east stand I'm not totally impressed having to play our home game there but it's hopefully only for this season, plus It wudnt be the same not having a slanging match with Chav corner so I'm happy staying were we are.

| Quote: cod'ead "I think there's more chance of FC season ticket holders kicking up a fuss. No matter how it's explained to them, there'll still be the hard of thinking, who believe they should be allowed to take their allocated seat FOC.
Provided HKR season ticket holders are not expected to pay a penny more for this game, there shouldn't be problem from them either, unless they expect the club to fund any extra travel expenses and/or the difference in the price of a pie & a pint'"
Well, theres a slight problem if Rovers tell me I have to take time off work to travel through to exchange season ticket for kc ticket. I live 30 miles away. So that would definetly cost me money. |

I quite agree.
I heard you were accepting new members to the Goose Gang, are you sure there's room for one more?  |

You have won 2 out of 6 SL derby. Hardly what you should call excellent. |

Please remember the KC is simply a facility you hire 13 times a year. If someone else wants to hire it on a date when it is available then Hull FC have no say in the matter.'"

I make it;
Magic = FC 0 - 3 KR
NCP = FC 2 - 4 KR
KC = FC 4 - 3 KR
4-4 if we count the recent "friendly". |
