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?

The Boulevard was hardly a fantastic view for away fans now was it? Very similar to our south stand - if you remember.
How many years a go was that? The game has moved on now... Well atleast at most grounds it has.

Us real fans don't look over our shoulder at our neighbours and do whatever we can to get one over on them. We look at the bigger picture. And this is the reason why Rovers are and will forever be considered a small club. Because their fans and board would rather get one over on Hull FC above anything else.
Quite sad, really!
SPOT ON!

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.

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?!
