I bet the likes of Wigan or St Helens produce 3-4x the number of youngsters than the city of Hull.
Shocking really, especially when football is secondary to rugby.'"
Just because Hull City are sh¡te, it doesn't necessarily mean

Yeah right, think you need a new abacus old lad. I freeze framed it on the HKR end and counted 58. Absolutely terrible support from fans who slag everyone else off and tell them how they're keeping Rugby League afloat with their away support.

| I don't know why anyone is having a go at Hull KR, that was still one of the better away attendances at the DW in the last couple of years and they have a greater distance to travel for Friday night games than most sides.

No it wasn't. I'm not having a go at all at Hull KR fans, everyone has different circumstances & priorities, but that was not a large turnout and was not one of the better away attendances.

It was probably as many as most Lancashire team bring over the Pennines to Craven Park.

Don't be ridiculous C.P, we've already been told there were only 58 Rovers fans at the game

Can you count? I'd say there was definitely more than 58. About 200 or so imo.

Wrong. This prize was claimed by Mr S Tomkins, as he greeted each and every hull KR player across field before putting Goulding in on 39 minutes on 17 Sept 2011.
Today's excellent effort was almost a carbon copy. They never learn.

Oh ok. You'd obviously know far more than me about the away attendances at the DW Stadium every other week being, if I'm not mistaken, a Leeds fan.

Wrong again. The prize was claimed by Sam Tomkins (ok, that bit is right) on 14 August 2011 against Salford City Reds.

It's not difficult to spot such bolll1ocks though is it? Wigan fans are saying there was around 200/300 (which would fit with the TV pictures) but even if that were vastly underrated and there were 500 or even 1,000 away fans there that wouldn't be one of the better away attendances from recent years would it now?

| Around 300-350 Hull KR fans in the North Stand tonight.
Sam Tomkins needs to cut out the back-chat "OY!!!" isn't how an official should be spoken to.
On a side note, wishing Phil Bentham a quick recovery. Shocking injury.

It's more than London, Catalans, Crusaders (when they were in SL), Wakefield, Cas, Bradford, Salford, Hull FC and Huddersfield have brought at various times in the last couple of years. Yes, I've mentioned the ones that obviously would bring few travelling fans but it shows how many teams bring small away followings, which have been quite poor at the DW.
Saints and Wire obviously attract the most away fans, Leeds used to bring lots and still bring a reasonable number if not as many as usual.

| Game showed our strengths and weaknesses, good up the middle with forwards off loading to back up players is our strength, terrible out wide defence and giving stupid penalties costs us games regularly. Wigan will make you pay for errors and unfortunately Welham running out the line at every chance was gift they were not going to pass up on.
We are what we are, a mid table team hopefully going to get better.
ps I wish we "only" got 300 travelling fans to every game at CP!

Is that all - I would be keeping quiet?
Also I bet the £17 is gross so actually the loss would be closer to £200

It's a conundrum that's puzzled me for decades.
At youth and amateur level the Hull area can more than hold their own against whatever the West Riding, NW Counties or Cumbria can provide. Once any of those players enter the remit of the two professional clubs is where the problems start. I have no idea what the solution is but a failure to develop other than the odd one or two top-class players, every five years or so, is unacceptable given the obvious talent available at lower age group level.

What sort of staff are in place when the players get to 16-17-18 at Hull FC?
