"IT BEGAN as a disgruntled half-time trickle, turned into a resentful river after an hour and became a veritable torrent of torment long before the final hooter sounded.
Officially, the crowd at yesterday's Craven Park mismatch was 6,614 but there were significantly fewer people than that left at the end of a match which marked the lowest point in Hull Kingston Rovers' time as a Super League club.
Just a few dozen dissenters may have refused to leave the bars at half-time, when Rovers were already losing 32-3, but the roads leading away from the stadium were flooded with a sea of red and white by the time Gareth Morton grabbed a late consolation try."

Hardly fair, comparing a couple of thousand Rovers fans (allegedly), with Video of the fact that 3/4 of the KC was empty on 60mins

I'm not the one baiting on the premise that Rovers fans are supremely loyal and stay to the end cockle. It's patently untrue. If there were more than a third of Rovers fans left staying to applaud the team off yesterday, I'm Gavin Miller -Legend. You really should think before you post. Rovers fans have previous for poor performance desertion. It's there in black and white, so to speak.

Simply not true, we've had enough hammerings since we have been in Super League, and very rarely had any sor of 'walk', unlike the the droves leaving the KC in 2007 and 2010 when it was obvious that there was only 1 winner.

Gentle mentions it himself during the fans forum? The simple fact is you got a coach that wasn't even allowed to bring his own men in, he's being hung out to dry as the first few dissenting voices are heard.
