FC fans staying away are accused of being fair-weather fans. FC fans turning up are accused of being fair-weather fans.

Absolute garbage.
The Boulevard was far better than Craven Park is now. As I posted earlier, The Boulevard was used as a Test ground.
As for the "we are better fans than you" tripe, give over.

You need a check up from the neck up u do how many years ago was that ok if the boulevard was still In existence now would it still be used as a test ground the simple answer is no, just like craven park wudnt be at the minute I think Wat everyone is trying to say is u share a stadium with hull city if u didn't would hull be able to afford to go it alone at the kc, as much as the fc fans loathe going to craven park because it's a dump let us remind u u wud probably still be in ur dump if it hadn't been for the council building it and the allams securing hull citys future,so there

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Bang on chief.
I actually quite like going when it's bad weather, I find it rather bonding. Bradford a couple of years ago, Leeds about three years ago when it snowed.

Doublespeak, it's the new form of attack\defence and I think seventies red has done it quite well.
Very predictably hooked in "I'll bite at everything", come on you 'ull.

The south end at Craven Park leaves a lot to be desired we all know this. Rovers know this too and are trying very hard to make ground improvements which would put this right. That's all there is to it for now, we all hope not for much longer.
Hull fans are entitled to stay away if they wish. If Rovers could 'magic' up a solution I'm sure they would I'm sure they'd like Hull to match the 6,500 Rovers take to the KC. At £20 a ticket that's worth £130k.
If I were a Hull fan I reckon I might stay away too if the game was televised but I wouldn't miss the game otherwise. Let's be honest any Hull fan that is keen enough could easily have got a ticket for the well or North Stand.
As for the Gordon St end at The Boulevard it was awful easily as far away from the pitch as Rovers south stand. But back then people didn't worry as much about faciities. The threepenny stand would not come near to meeting H & S requirements and there were only a few hundred seats nothing like as many as (Old) Craven Park.
For me Craven Park (old) was a far better ground but The Boulevard did have a bigger capacity which is why it got the odd minor international game.
Neither ground would have met current SL standards I dare say.
