I prefer the older style grounds with good facilities like Headingly, Warrington (because most of it is standing).
It has been shown by Warrington, Hull FC and Wigan that crowds will go up with better facilities, Hull KR will be getting crowds like Hull, Wigan and Leeds. All this if you continue current results on the field.
Craven park really does need doing though.'"
Some good points. These things are in the pipeline, just not a great time to be ploughing money into major investments and projects. |

CP is one of my favourite traditional grounds. Always enjoy going there and chatting with your fans. Good rugby knowledge and very friendly.

HKR are about as poor as it gets.

Sensible post, I agree with that. |

It is awful, I look at the South Stand from the East and believe fans in there can't see a thing. I used to go in the South Stand in my younger days but I barely remember what it was like.

Craven park was a lot better then i had been expecting. Enough siad on the south stand, fortunatley i bought in the north stand as i couldn't get a ticket from wire. At the time it wasn't designated as an away friendly stand so that maybe wasn't entirely sensible.
I thought the 2 main stands looked excellent and the golf stand is decent. The main stand seems to create a brilliant atmosphere. It is a bit unfair for you all the sing "shall we sing a song for you" when our voice just dissapate into the sky!
From my limited tour of the SL grounds so far Craven Park does not fair too bad. Wakefield is definitely the worst for me

Thank you. That is what I believe any normal fan without a chip/agenda would think of Craven Park.
It is a reasonable, traditional venue to watch SL. It has improved over the last few years, which is more than some, and will get better. |

Did you get rid of all the voices in your head? Do you now miss them and the things that they said?: |

Ah, that's the acid test isn't it? If a fan comes to Craven Park, sees his team lose and still admit that it's a reasonable venue.
Will it ever happen? Cue the theme music to Tales of the Unexpected...

It's not great but we neither needed nor could afford anything better in the NL days, so hopefully the board will continue to build it up into a decent RL ground.
It's certainly got potential and will be a damn site cheaper and easier to do than trying to get a new stadium project off the ground.
