| Quote ="Gavin Miller - Legend"What exactly was incorrect in that statement Paul.
Im well aware it works both ways but in this instance it looks like a fair chunk of Rovers fans are not going to bother with this game in January.
And in this instance we are discussing attendance at the KC.
The reasons vary from not wanting to spend cash on a pre season game to in their reasoning tat for tat for Hull fans not selling out their tickets at CP amongst others.
These opinions have been taken from our unofficial forum, the HDM website and people i have spoken to.
Just as you say some Hull fans were justified not wanting to watch the game from the South Stand at Rovers, that was their choice, be it the other way round i would still attend as my team would be there and ive been to far worse places then Craven Park.
You may say its pathetic, i say its freedom of choice.'"
I'd assume these same people won't be attending ANY away game then??
Let's be honest the North Stand will probably sell out anyway so who gives two hoots about the self proclaimed martyrs?
Stay away, somebody else will take your place. After all this is Rovers, they take 300,000 to every away game.

I don't post on the unofficial forum, (seemed to get banned despite never having posted?) so as the 1% that must make the forum cabbage.
I'm cut to the bone.
I might go to Richard Hornes testimonial, if I'm about, even though I don't usually bother with pre season as I spend enough time traipsing up and down the M62 as it is, but let's be honest, as far as sportsmen from Hull go, this lad's a bit special for all the reasons already listed.
Severe injury, diabetes, (must be an utter nightmare to manage) true club man and marvellous ambassador for the city.

You said the amount of venom aimed from West to east and did not mention it works both ways, only in your subsequent post did you do that.
As for opinion, my point is if Hull fans say they are not going to CP as the view from the south stand is rubbish and they don't agree with being charged more than other fans then they have genuine reasons. If Rovers fans just say I am not going cos some Hull fans would not come here then that is pathetic. If they don't want to come for other reasons then I don't see any issues as that is just everyday reasons for not going to a game.
It's their opinion about what they choose to do and why and if they use the tit for tat reason then its my opinion to call them pathetic.

Im not saying it was everyone but most of my FC mates said the reason they wasn't going th CP was beacause it was a nothing game & derbies don't really matter! Im sure a lot of KR supporters will be at the KC in Jan & the ones that don't go will have their own reasons, (right or wrong in other peoples opinions). Sometimes it doesn't matter what you do there will always someone putting you down for it, I went to Rich's X factor night only to be asked "Wot u doin ere?" by some very unpleasant Hull fans.

That type of thing really get's me riled, I have alays liked Richard as a player and only wish he played for the Robins. It comes to something, when you can't show your appreciation of a class player wothout some meatheads spoiling it.

| Wether Paul M likes it or not, i also personally know Rovers fans who have tried supporting benefits, going to charity boxing matches and suchlike and get abused by Hull fans and have consequently stopped going.
As he well knows Hull fans had the option of buying North stand tickets for the derby and still snubbed the game with various excuses, so whatever Rovers fans choose to do or not to do regards a Hull players benefit should be of no concern to anyone else.

I'm sure Paul doesn't like it, as he's expressed just a few posts up.

When it's up for public discussion then it anyone's right to have a view.
I think you will find the North stand usually sells out between Hull and Rovers fans, it's where I normally go. It's the south stand that provides all the negative comments.

I have never missed a Craven Park derby but I have only experienced the South "stand" once. I will never go there again. It's a rip-off and you cannot see the match. Simple as that. You'd be better off deciphering Gollum or DDD to understand what's going on than follow the match from that pit.
I subsequently always go in the Golf stand. However, it is astounding how many fans still believe that is not an option or the tickets have to be bought by stealth while pretending to be a Rovers fan. People still think they must buy from the Hull allocation for the Dockside or not at all. When everyone cottons on and the North is a sell out and I can't get a ticket, then at that point I will stop going to Caravan Park.
