Thanks for the clarification.

No problem. I take it your full support is behind council funding for the stand.

Only if they build Sheldon's Special Slide in time for the weekend. In truth, I'm not sure, at first glance I did think that it's not something local authorities should be getting involved in, however I do think there's been some compelling arguments put forward over the last couple of pages in favour.

One thing I do know is that both the NHS and the council find it almost impossible to contact and educate the male over thirty fives population of the city when it comes to alcohol and tobacco, this could be a possible in for them.

No, we are in a stadium at our own expense. The KC stadium was built as a community project for the whole of the city that should eventually pay for itself. You seem to be forgetting the other team that also pays to use the stadium. One last time, the KC stadium was not built for Hull FC so why would you use Hull FC as the basis for your arguement? The stadium has hosted International events so always needed the extra capacity. IF the stadium had been built just for Hull FC the capacity would have been nowhere near 25000.

The council provided a stadium that was made available for use for all 3 professional teams in the city. The fact your club refused to use it doesn't mean the council should then have to fork out yet more money so you can have your own private upgraded facilities with no real "payback" to the council.

1976-77 average 3,860
1977-78 5,112 (last time Rovers had a higher average at 5,352

)
1978-79 6,853 (in the second division, higest average in either division)
1979-80 10,021

The SINGLE sub 1,000 attendance against Huyton was in 1974.

Or what about in 1997 in the NFL when we got a few 8,000 attendances?

How did American Football go? Never liked that paint they put under their eyes me...Sinister.

I meant NFP. (Or Not F***ing Playing as the joke went in 1999).

Lets hope Rovers get some support from the council to improve facilities, then perhaps the dullers who travel in their hundreds to the derby will need another excuse for not following their team to Craven Park.

Mind you after two derby wins against us this year, the " faithful support" for the 2011 derby at C.P. could even reach four figures.

You'll get nothing from the council, you've had enough and you turned down the best opportunity you've ever had, as for support, if you had a 25,000 stadium where the away fans could see what was going on and be charged the same as everyone else, we would out number you which would be a bit of a showing up now wouldn't it.

It's too dull and predictable for me to even be bothered to pick up the mouse to click an emoticon.
