Could try running a "HKR Junior Capo" camp and find 5 or so young lads willing to start some chants from across the front of the East Stand, If these are always there at home games, They could hand out song sheets, Anyone willing/wanting to chant would know where to get one.
I don't think you'll ever get it in the West Stand - Rufus got ejected by stewards last season for taking a water gun up there.

That may be a good idea and worth trying, im sure there are some young guns out there who would be more than willing to give it a go, they just need that little encouragment from somewhere, i'm sure once it got going it would gather momentum as time went on. With regards to the West stand singing, i think you would have more chance of getting a stiff to do a 100 metre sprint, some of them west standers wouldnt look out of place in Madame Tussauds imo.

Never say never, but some of them that go into the west stand have become a little set in their ways imo, plus there are others who are just to aloof to be seen singing and chanting , they need to let their hair down a little.

I quite like the idea of a Junior Capo - I wish I was 6.
So do i, like i have said, all they need is a little encouragement, im sure there are groups of younger fans who go to the ground in large groups as we did when young, the one thing they've got that we didn't is the internet and youtube, from where they could get their ideas and inspiration.

Good idea, maybe rovers could buy bradford's unused stock of sponge fingers and the 5 young lads can cross out bradford with a black marker pen and write hull kr on them instead. They could sell them for a couple of quid each.
In addition, each player could have their own song as bradfud did in the early years of SL

Talking about repetitious chants, does anyone remember the 1980s 'here we go, here we go, here we go'? Click onto YouTube 1984 John Player final between Rovers and Cas. Nostagia personified. . .Lol!
Basically, we all need to create a noise (on and off the field) that there is a well supported club at MS3 Craven Park, that the community of East Hull would like to remain there. Obviously the BoD would really like to say is that we need HCC councillors to hear us but can't be explicit about that right now as it is a sensitive issue and the timing is crucial . Rob reiterated on Tuesday evenings 'Sportstalk' that our support is awesome - the point now is that we need to lift the profile at this crucial time - positively and dynamically.
