Its no secret that we need improved facilities, I think a 10k average is achievable once we have the extended east and new north stand facilities.

The bottom line is we won't get any real significant improvement in the crowds until the East Stand extention is finished.
Does anyone know when is it scheduled to be completed?

I started it more as a question /general observation really. It was never intended to be a dig at the club. I'm not a Hull KR supporter and I don't live anywhere near to Hull. Similarly I'm not a Hull FC supporter either. I was genuinely surprised to see the attendance for the game as I thought it would sell out given all the media hype thats followed Willie Mason over the years plus the 'Willie or Won't he ever arrive in Hull' posts over on the VT.
Surely the Hull FC supporters have enough problems of their own without pitching in with petty arguments about this topic though. |

The East sold out and people seem reluctant to pay £18 to sit in the North or anything at all to stand in the south, It was a good crowd today.
You would think so, apparently not. |

You clearly do not know how we operate we are unique...we work together, some live together, and we bicker together about any-thing and every-thing to do with rugby....but we also stand together in times of needs (floods etc). |

It may not be the 'peak' but it certainly appears to be the region we're at right now.
Discounting the Salford game last season our only other games which had higher attendances was Hull FC (10k) and Wigan (9k). In both those games I'm sure the home support would work out to be around 8600* mark. I'd have liked to see 9k today but it wasn't to be.
*Give or take

All the cameras, all the photographers, all the media. An Interview on sky sports news before and after the game. Did Vanessa Phelps talk to sky sports news today about his debut?
