I heard on KCFM a woman (KR fan) say that she didnt attend because there were no East Stand tickets left... im sure others did the same. To have a go at us for a crap away support when we normally bring more and sold out the tickets we got is rediculous.
you didnt sell them all though, as you said you sent 300 back.
yes its a poor stand but so what, a die hard fan would still be in there giving it some.

It can be but TBH a lot of away supporters who have kids don't visit either Hull club due to small elements of the home support if you get my drift.

Perhaps the `massive` turnout of Leeds fans hid under the same umbrella
The FACT is it was an embarrassing turnout for the `double champions`
OK, so what are Leeds fans supposed to do when the club says the allocation has gone and Hull KR advise Leeds fans not to travel without a pre purchased ticket... do you see where I am going with this?

Leeds don't travel well. I have to accept that in your first visit to Belle Vue when you were promoted, I arrived at the ground and thought I was at an away game. Alright, most of you were drunk, but you do turn up in numbers.
You tend to find that the bigger teams survive on the glory fans. Wigan, Leeds or Saints don't travel well when compared to their home gate. I'm not sure that the bigger teams take much more, if any more, than we do to away games more than thirty miles away. Their hardcore isn't much different to ours.
Watching TV on Friday, it struck me that the away support looked no different to when Wakey are there, and Rhinos are the supposed supporters power house.
And FWIW, you were unlucky on Friday. Webster's "try" maybe was a knock-on, but there was enough doubt to give you the benefit of it. Looking forward to a couple of weeks time.

Excuses, excuses... I don't like going to Warrington... but I do.... there is a minority at most grounds.... don't use that as an excuse for lithargy!
