Hull FC sent half the allocation yesterday which was then split between Holderness road and Craven Park.
Up to 3pm today they had still not sent the other half. Those that queued for a ticket yesterday and had to leave their details will be rung tomorrow and informed if they have got a ticket from the second allocation or not. That's providing Hull send the tickets by then!

You see thats what ticks me off, the fact that both clubs try to be as pi$$y as possible with EACH other. Its Rovers banning their Mascot, FC giving only half the tickets at one go when everyone knows Rovers would sell 8000 tickets in 1 day for the derby, etc etc.
For gods sake lets act like adults and show the rest that when it comes to Rugby League, Hull does it best.

But Rovers have been given an allowance of 3600 tickets. Super League rules oblige the Home team to make 10% of the capacity available to the Away fans, that's only 2400.
So, by that we have generously given you an extra 50% allowance.
Not the actions of children acting pi$$y.
In fact, at the first derby at the KC after your arrival in Super League we did all we could to make you welcome. Invited your mascot AND your cheerleaders. Allowed those cheerleaders to line up with ours to welcome BOTH teams on the pitch TOGETHER, the announcer making as much fuss over the Robins as ourselves - the whole pre-match run-up had a communal carnival slant with no animosity.
I believe relations started to go downhill after this spirit was not returned by your club on our first visit to your ground. None allocation of the North Away stand to Hull fans only out of all other teams, the £17 charged for the South "Stand", the banning of Airlie, no joint entrance etc etc.
Sadly, that, and the handling by your officials of the Paul Cooke defection, set the tone for future relations.

And we give you 1700 tickets out of 10400, which equals 16%. Your point is?

Or they new they couldn't fill it if we only had 2400, a selfless act of a kind hearted club, I think not.

no rovers fan in their right mind would pay to go in the Zeebrugge stand, so to maximise profits you gave it all over to FC.
