I see Arco when I am coming back from Hessle Foreshore late at night. There is no problem with me telling the difference
Hey, I'm just telling it like it is. Don't shoot the messenger!

I thought you was joking earlier in the thread when you mentioned ARCO. You do realise you can see the stadium on the way in and out of hull on the train dont you?

Big stadium, white bits on top, next to a railway line. That'll be the KC. I've seen it from a train, and I've also seen a train going past it whilst I've been walking to/from Walton Street Car Park.
Easy mistake to make though given Arco is half the size, isn't in west park and is painted Blue.

| The thread gets worse.
No where in East Hull to build to stadium
Some folk are content with Hull's reputation, others want to see investment, the infastructure mantained and blue chip companies being tempted into the area and jobs for local people.

Nine pages in and we are still waiting for someone to give us a location in East Hull that is big enough for a 'Super Stadium'.
Not Kingswood, that is not East Hull. Not Hedon, that is not in Hull. So come on, where will this new place be built?
I have seen a patch of land at the end of Holderness ruuurd, used to be Cornmill Hotel, maybe that location could be used?
I want to see investment and to see Hull get better but would prefer to start with Housing, Schools, Hospitals, Sporting Academies (linked to Schools ie Sirius) and some more Bingo arena's.
When I hear one good reason why Hull City Council should build HKR a Stadium I will sign the petition, how is that for fairness?
Dont give me the spin of 'Community links, gym's, education' and all that bum fluff, for Preston Road see Freedom Centre, the new School etc etc etc for Holderness Road see Woodford, for Longhill see the thing near big shops I cannot be d to find the name of
How many people who need free Internet and other such facilities a new 'East Hull Super Stadium' will bring are gonna travel past existing centres and community projects to go to Craven Park (which is basically where most Rovers fans petitioning think the new Stadium should be built)? Cost of travel to a stadium to them would be pointless.
Forgive me for having no other comparisons but I have no idea what else people are asking for at a new stadium. Adult education? A cafe? A swimming pool?

| Good point mate
Think the one good point of the KC's location is its ease of access from Clive Sullivan way, all the local pubs etc and its nearness to town
Dont think the Cornmill land is big enough though.

Cornmill will be big enough if Dobson Leaves, it will be back to 1500 plus a few ex players then
As for the KC's location, I am amazed how many thick people actually think because it was built in a park with the name 'West' in it Rovers were pushed away by the other two clubs and the Council when the plans were made!!
Nothing to do with the Station, the Motorway or the short walk from the town centre for many people who get the bus. Or the fact there was nowhere more central big enough.
I am pretty sure the reason Leyton Orient do not want to play their home games at Wembley is for similar reasons

There is simply no way to drum sense into some people, you might as well just give it up!

It's called East Park. Couldn't be more perfect - an area fit for The Kings.
Oh, and any news on the shop?

| KC was built in West Park so how can any far minded, thinking person even object to a similar scheme, with similar rescoursing being built in East Park.

Probably because if you add all of the fans of Hull, City and Rovers it does not even equate to half the population of Hull. Why the hell should another of our Cities parks be destroyed to accommodate a stadium that only one club wants?
I will say it again. YOU HAVE THE CHOICE TO PLAY IN HULL'S STADIUM. IT IS AS CENTRALLY LOCATED AS WAS POSSIBLE AND APART FROM A FEW HUNDRED ROVERS FANS THERE IS NO INTEREST IN BUILDING ANOTHER!!
I think this 'debate' has run it's course now. It is now established there is no good reason to have another Stadium built. Oh, other than Leeds and Sheffield (although paid for by the clubs) have two stadiums and the old argument that if West Park has one East park needs one!!
I bet the children who are unable to play sport at School due to lack of equipment and the people living in the middle of smackheads and robbers are just as keen to waste more Council money on a stadium only a few hundred Rovers fans want.
Here is a novel idea, why not ask Money Bags Crossland to bring his business over from Warrington and start the blue chip company influx you wanted Bertie. Maybe then the Council will have a change of heart
