And your point is what exactly? 
Are you saying that when Rovers have been in Super League for as long as Hull have their gates will exceed Hull's?
Or are you just dwelling in the past (again)? |

Why is it whenever someone posts facts they are assumed to be a Rovers supporter living in the past?
The point of my post was to show that it is possible for a club to increase its attendances as Hull have proved.

True. And I hope Rovers do increase their attendances, but even your own Chairman does not aspire to an average of more than 10,000.
More to the point, as many Rovers fans have pointed out many times in the past, Hull's attendances increased significantly after their move from the Boulevard to the KC. How are Rovers going to significantly increase their attendances? |

I'm not sure they can unless they significantly improve the facilities on offer. IMHO our beloved Lib Dumb council should use some of the money 'earmarked' for the KC expansion (for its pie in the sky plans) to redevelop and modernise Craven Park giving it the same focal point status in East Hull that the KC is in West Hull.
Only my opinion mind  |

When the KC was built it was always supposed to be a community facility. The promotion of Hull City to the Premier League and Paul Duffen's chairmanship of the SMC appear to have moved away from that i.e. no RL internationals, no concerts.
For my part if Craven Park was to be developed as a genuine community facility and not just for the benefit of Hull KR, I would have no objection to public money being invested there.

You don't really think they had any money to expand the KC do you?
IMO rovers best chance of a council handout went with the world cup bid. If they'd found some cash to upgrade the KC it would have been difficult to turn down grudgell's begging pleas but now they can just plead poverty.
Public sector cash is going to be squeezed like never before and there's no chance of a handout from the public purse any more

Never said it would happen i said it should. We are supposed to be a top 10 city and we have 3 high profile professional sporting teams yet only 1 decent stadium. You're right in saying public sector cash will be squeezed over the coming years but there will still be public funds available for Capital projects, if the council has the will or expertise to get their hands on them. |

Hull isn't a top 10 city for a start.
If funding were available then pearson would have the nouse to tap into it irrespective of any lack of expertise at the council |

I agree Hull isn't a top 10 city, but we keep getting told that is the aspiration of the council. Pearson has his hands full keeping City afloat and he has no immediate need for any expansion of the KC now the WC bid has been blown away. That doesn't mean there are no Capital project funds available for other areas of the city in need of regeneration, areas Pearson isn't interested in. |
