2) He has a point. Rovers have lost £2m odd since promotion. Could have spent £2m less on players and be sitting in the new stand right now for that.
A stand fit to grace the Northern Rail Cup and the odd live appearance on Premier Sports? Brilliant
Still, I suppose Hull might still be a top team had we disappeared

The stand bit is costing £2m quid, isn't it?

| Quote: Mrs Barista "In his defence and in the interests of black and white solidarity:
1) I think he means a business case for the stand on its own. This doesn't mean providing a list of costs and drumming fingers on the table as the rather non-obvious training centre location is scrutinised by ERDF. Nor a rather arrogant indignation at a delay in central government loaning you the money, when the council (and therefore Hull taxpayer) are guaranteeing repayments in the event of default. Rovers have tried and failed to get any funding for this other than through utilising links to the council and contriving this strange marriage apparently built on Rovers lurve.
2) He has a point. Rovers have lost £2m odd since promotion. Could have spent £2m less on players and be sitting in the new stand right now for that.
If they had had spent 2 million less, they would now more than likely be playing in the Northern ford.

Northern Ford? Typical Rovers fan living in the past!
Surely we could go back to playing in the Slalom Lager Division 1?

Perhaps, but there have been some pretty poor "investments" that could have been better channelled into improving infrastructure as per franchise commitments. Willie Mason. Automated turnstiles that require, er, manning. Kooga kits that run in the wash and have to be replaced. Too long a contract given to Justin Morgan. Overseas training camps. Few quid there that wouldn't have impacted retention of SL status.

You asking me or telling me? I haven't seen the cost breakdown tbh.
But then, if it was just the stand alone - the local east Hull finest wouldn't benefit from the ... community centre thing that's part of current development.
Being a community club like we are - then surely the way we've gone is best for everyone. As not only are we looking to benefit our supporters with a new stand but the whole local area will benefit as well. The pride of east Hull

20/20 Hindsight.

Ah hindsight - missed Paul Cooke out tho
We actually knocked our Dubai trip on the head if I recall - had some great fun @ 'Saltend' in the process (gratis that one)
I guess if the turnstiles (or to be more precise manual scanners) have stopped fraudulent tickets - then that's a good thing and worth while investment.
Kooga - a bit desperate that one

To the point where the crossroad directions are either your chairman walking or adding a further £2m liability to the already creaking balance sheet? OK chief.

Community centre?
I thought the plans were for a business and enterprise development centre, not somewhere where pensioners can play bingo and have a knees-up

Cheers cod - had no idea what the official title was.
Sounds a lot better than a community centre, I must say
