Can't honestly see 1000+ turning up week in week out just because they can get in the East Stand, sure somebody posted earlier that there were around 100 East Stand tickets still available on Saturday.'"
My brother tried to get one on Saturday and was told it was sold out, only seats in the RM and North were available. |

Could well be the case, like I say I'm sure I saw somebody post different (Nick perhaps?).
My point remains the same though, I can't see the East Stand extention raising gates by 1k+, and personally think Rovers would be better served improving the commercial side of the business, leaving a lower, more realistic crowd average required. |

We need to improve the above but we also can't move away from the goal of a 10k average crowd. It's not out the question and something we have to strive for in the long term to compete with the rest of SL. An East stand extension will certainly help to get closer to that magic 10k figure. |

I agree with the goal as such, and in the long term it may quite happen...won't by simply extending the East Stand I'm afraid. |

Quote: nick hkr "Saturday the East Stand still had 80 tickets left on sale, had the extension been finished wouldn't that number have been more like 1080? I'm not saying it isn't going to be a big draw to have the stand go the full length of the pitch, it will be one of the best terracing stands in sport especially on derby day when it is sold out.

Too late, she is already spoken for  |

Only at Rovers could an increase of around 1500 on last years gate be seen as a bad thing amongst the Hull FC fans

I know 
As much as I enjoy a bit of ribbing about overseas players and the like, even I have to say that given you've had the dirty french and the cottage burners for you tahe attracted 2,500 more fans to those games is outstanding  |

Thats 4750, less than half the ground capacity
Told you you should have done some deals and fill the place, all the reports would have been miles better for you:
"Willies debut infront of a sell out"
instead of
"8600 turned out for his debut"
Least we know all about spin here at Hull  |

I was...and will be again I am sure, but whilst the whole overseas player thing drags on...I won't let any club get beaten up by anyone (even their own fans) over an INCREASE in fans. PHIPPS knew what he was doing when he started this thread.....it doesn't take much to attract posters from the darkside of Hull over here for a percieved feeding frenzy.
9k is what you will average this year.......onwards and upwards as they say......but for gods sake, jettison some of the criminal element for 2012 |

We're on it, we have a petition in place for Hull to remove the restrictions on the East stand.

But last year your attendance against Crusaders was 800 down on the previous year thus giving more room for improvement. |
