First off, grow up.

Secondly we've been uptight and upset for most of the season.

Why? Gateshull, thats who you are remember

Anyone who wanted a Golf stand seat ticket could have purchased one.

Rovers fan in stating there was 4,541 rovers fans (AKA exaggerating) shocker.

Absolutely, couldn't argue with that, all the more reason I'm surprised you haven't sold your allocation. I can only assume that you are either a) not old enough to have attended many of the more 'traditional' grounds in NL1 & 2 or b) you haven't been going long enough. The Boulevard was hardly a fantastic view for away fans now was it? Very similar to our south stand - if you remember.

What the frig are you talking about?

Our game attracted 11,300 fans. The celtic game attracted 7,600. Using your weird logic 11,300 - 7,600 = 3700 which would actually prove my point. Are you always this thick?

How many years a go was that? The game has moved on now... Well atleast at most grounds it has.

That has nothing to do with loyalty and more to do with common sense, I thought you'd have realised that with all the 'ripped off' comments on here. The loyalty bit comes in when you can't get your East Stand ticket, do you still go?

Isnt that the whole point? New stadium and ground development means that supporters should no longer be expected to pay extortionate prices for very poor facilities?

As a Hull fan I would have hoped you'd know how long ago it was! The point is, many years ago I stood in that stand to support my team, i absolutely hated it, sometimes I was very frightened (1981 case in point) but I was there to support my team.

Yours hasn't

Common sense dictating that I can actually see the game you mean?

When we have been in SL as long as you have then perhaps our facilities will improve. Sadly things can't change overnight, it's just not possible. Wakefield have been in SL from the beginning, promising a new ground for many years with very poor away facilities - do you not go there either for the same reason.

If, in 5 or 6 years time we still haven't made any ground improvements then fair enough, but come on, give us a fair crack of the whip.

The game's evolved and, as one of the more sensible posters on your forum, I'm very suprised that you're trying to defend a stand which is the worst in the league.

Absolutely. Remind me which current SL teams have been warned about their grounds and how many years have they been in SL?!

You couldn't even fill your ground for a CC quarter final. Mind you it was on TV.

tbf that view is ten times better than any view attainable from the south stand.

I'm not defending it, it is very poor I walk out round that end of the ground every home game and agree. What I'm saying is, that alone would not stop me going and supporting my team. Fair play to those Hull fans who are coming on Saturday, whether they be in the South or the North, they'll be there supporting their team and I hope they enjoy the game as much as they can.

As a Rovers fan I have always said that our away facilities shoule be our priority for improvement, but having been reminded of Leeds' wonderful ground yet their very poor away end on Friday night, perhaps, we, like them, should think of our home support first and extend the East at the South end. The RFL are obviously happy with the developments we have made so far, as we were not of the the recipients of the 'must improve letter'.

Sorry Trace I think you are missing the point totally here. To expect Hull fans to pay full whack to stand in a facility which is nothing short of a disgrace is simply not on.

Wakeys ground is poor and I would not take my family to that ground for sure however at least you can see the pitch!!

I will be there on Saturday but not in the South Stand.

Good, well done, you took the sensible option.

If the roles were reversed, I would be in the south stand supporting my team, end of, IF, I couldn't have got a seat for the North Stand. I'd be there for the atmosphere, what I didn't see I'd see on the rerun on Sky later.

Personally I prefer to see the game, the atmosphere is secondary but each to their own I suppose.

Your loyalty is clearly unquestionable, I suppose you paid the 60 quid to become a member of that new club?

Unfortunately Neil (I'm just a fan) Hudgell has dropped a bollock with the ticket price. If it was a tenner more would have gone. But fans' previous experience of paying way over the odds in return for not being able to see the game and the potential bonus of getting totally drenched has finally come home to roost. Ripping FC fans off in that way in past years has resulted in a loss of revenue this year which it would seem from reports is revenue Hudgell couldn't afford to lose. It's a shame but a bad mistake nonetheless. Home tickets haven't exactly sold out several times either by the looks of it.

No I didn't, as I said above, perhaps my loyalty would be questioned for this, but personally I don't agree with the scheme and at the moment not sure where the money is coming from for next season's passes let alone that. Loyalty will be tested if I can't get a season pass for the East Stand. Someone above posted that they weren't coming because they couldn't afford it, that's fair enough, I don't have a problem at all with that, been in the same position myself in past years, the problem I have is if you can afford it but aren't coming because the view is pants.

Like I say though trace I dont see the point in been in the South Stand 'just to be there' for the game then watch the re run to actually see what happened!!!



Not affording it and Value For Money are both legit reasons in my eyes.

Can't argue with that.

My husband has just walked in the door and told me he's been made redundant
