The sensible option would be:
Rover – West and North
Hull FC – East and south
I don’t think the West upper will be needed

I guess we first have to assume that Hudge has not been forced into this decision by not being able to offer Hull the minimum number of away allocated tickets now the CP capacity has been reduced, and is merely doing this for typical begging reasons.
If the former, then Hull should be looking to take revenue from all tickets sold over the new capacity (8500?), cut with the SMC and with no benefit to Rovers. If the latter, from all tickets over the old capacity (10500ish?).
You, as the home team would take possession of the best stand with it's corporate facilities for your use [iand [/ithe cushioned seats and one end. I.e., you'd have West, West Upper and North. That way, you'd maximise the 'away ' support and cause the minimum of logistical difficulties (tickets have to be sold through the KC ticket office so Hull fans would merely buy their 'own' 'home' seats anyway resulting in a mixed stand) and, of course, make policing issues easier.
Guess we also have to factor in how much the Egyptian would charge. No, no, silly worm, he's a Rovers benefactor [iand[/i has made clear to the people of this city his dedication to sports philanthropy in Hull, so he should do it free or at cost for his mucker.
You could have the "home" dressing room, if you [ireally[/i wanted it ![]()
O/T How you getting on with persuading Catalans to concede the league points from the Gilbert Brutus fixture?

| Quote: Kosh "This really should be a non-issue for fans, surely? The KC has plenty of room to accommodate everyone who is likely to attend in seats with a perfect view regardless of which stand folk end up in. There should even be plenty of flexibility for those that prefer either an end-on or side view.
As far as the financials are concerned, as long as it doesn't actually [icost[/i FC any money then where's the problem? We wouldn't have made anything from the fixture at CP anyway.'"
Too true. Doesn't and won't stop the bickering like.
If (say) we/you get a good deal from the SMC, then we could really blitz this game with subsidised ticket prices for all. Of course our season ticket holders are likely to kick up a fuss, but the benefit of a full stadium would be more beneficial to both clubs. Still, 24 days to go now and nothing is yet in print ... if this is going to be successful I'd say both clubs need to get this sorted soon. The who gets what and all that jazz is overshadowing the benefits to both clubs/fans. |

Ooh, that was one of my favourites, if only we could monitor brain activity on such occasions I think the data would be marvellous.

No, didn't miss it. You were replying to Kosh but alluding to the original point you made to me.
May have been a better idea to reflect properly . |

50/50 in ticket numbers or cash?'"
I didnt say it was an amazing event, it doesn't need to be that to be better than Holderness Rd!
Sorry, I meant 50/50 in ticket numbers. My reasoning in this is that you have what, 6-7,000 season ticket holders? I really cant see all those, plus another 7 or 8,000 turning up for HKR. I do think that 10-12,000 each is do-able though.
What do you reckon? |

Not like you to misquote and twist, oh "fair-minded" one ![]()
Was it not on here? genuine apology, in that case.

I've also been a victim. I'll never forgive him for disqualifying me in the Survivor game.

I'm such a cad.
The origins and evolution of meaning of the word cad are quite interesting, if you're into etymology. Or just trying to change the subject generally. Just off to steal Barista's best silver.
