You don't understand what an average is do you?

I would say Rovers increase Fcs average by 500 and Fcs increase ours by maybe 100 ?

Good old Babness.

Their average attendance is about 12k. Don't be silly.

Also they add a couple of hundred to our attendance.

He means they get more then usual, 8000 on top of an 11k average. Just worded wrong along with some people being pedantic.

I adopted this policy three years ago. . .that is, when the derby is at the KC.


Instead, me and our lass go away on that weekend (with other like-minded friends) on the £70-£80 we would spend, and watch it at the hotel or in the pub. This year we are going to Salford Quays.

Bye, then.

You seem to be behind the times with this boycott call,the evidence seems to suggest that kr fans are travelling in much smaller numbers anyway(salford and london),wether this is some sort of organised campaign like you are advocating or merely a reflection on financial times and the fact kr are no longer new to super league means only the true hardcore of fans are now travelling.
There will be far fewer kr fans at the KC this season anyway without your rallying call.

Same can be said for FC at widnes. Simple reason, because they were TV games.

Hey nobody has denied Hull's away support is down,the difference is we are not in denial yet you seem to think KR's away support has only stopped travelling to TV games.Do you think the kr support at bradford will be as big as say 2 to 3 years ago?
When rovers came into SL fans travelled in large numbers to all games Catalans,London.lancashire and TV games but now various reasons are given for not attending such as tv,etc.Apart from obvious financial restraints it comes down to success on the pitch and after a few seasons of averageness the novelty has worn off for many people and will be reflected by your support being down at the KC.IMO.

Point out the these post where people claim this, because I haven't, it's fans of other clubs who are obsessed with saying rovers an their gazillion away followers stemming back to rovers first season in SL.

Smaller than 3 years ago, bigger than 2 or 1 year ago. Simple reason is that the last 2 years fixtures were televised. This is the single biggest factor when deciding which away games to travel to. Save your hard earned for untelevised games and watch tv for the others.

I couldn't care how much it costs or the right or wrongs of who charges more for entry.
I will be there with my wife and family supporting Rovers. Its what supporters do.

The most sensible post of the week regarding this topic .

Unfortunately not everyone is financially able to follow their team away from home but they're supporters just the same. This applies to supporters of every club.
