That's the music the players will run out to at the new ground.

Let's say we built a 'Keepmoat' - who on earth is paying for that ?? 30 million wasn't it ?

Thousands were drawn to the KC - they won't put up with a shabby stadium with standing instead of seats.

It is a shame SMC benefit so heavily from our crowds but didn't Kath & co. have a hand in that deal - completely misjudging fans reaction ??


Not sure they do, though. If we turn over £4m and spend £2m on players/management wages, say another £1m on other costs, we can't be giving them any more than £1m can we? In the context of City's Sky income and gate receipts, can't see that what we pay them is material. :?

A rebuilt Boulevard would command the same crowds as we have now, if not more (Rovers aside), due to the simple fact we would not HAVE to charge £24 a ticket to watch.

And there goes the last remaining shred of any credibility you might once have had. :lol:

Wahey! Playground comebacks as well! :lol:

Why not spend your time more constructively by researching some of the costs associated with an RL club that aren't covered by the cap, and why it might be a good idea to have some money to pay for them. :)

couldnt agree more. get rid of the KC.

while you are at it, forget about the boulevarde as well, move back to the original ground at St. Mary’s Church in Lowgate. heck, get rid of that damned merger with Hull White Star too.

and people wonder why RL doesnt grow much in england?

You think that Leeds playing at Headingly is damaging their fanbase or on the field success? Has Huddersfield had unbelievable crowd growth and on field success since moving to Galpharm? Has international RL improved since the inclusion of Quins/Sheffield/Gateshead?

Hull's record attendance was set in 1936. 28798 were at the Boulevard. Why don't we get that many at the KC? Safety restrictions? Because of small minded people that don't like all seater stadiums?






The words of fools mean nothing to one who resides in the truth.

All seater stadiums kill the atmosphere IMO

Because it doesn't hold that many. HTH

To reconcile respect with practicality, what is the optimum speed for a hearse?
