To be fair there will be alot fo Hull fans in the Golf Stand to, its just people won't pay to go and stand on the South Stand(although I have). They should give the golf stand to Hull and give the south stand to Rovers and see how many of your own fans would go and stand there.

I would stand in that stand again if we where top of the league and it was free to get in, last year I didnt have a clue what was going on. (which was good at the time as we got hammered)
If it wasnt on sky I would have a got a ticket for the Golf stand, but money dictates that I will be watching the game on Sky.

The thing is, i don’t think there is a rovers fan out there who doesn’t think the south stand is substandard and its something that we need to develop, but why would we develop for 1 league game a year (Hull FC)when other teams don’t bring supporters to warrant it. we have other thinks to look at first.

The south stand is a joke and i wouldn't ever pay a penny to 'view' a game from there and there is no change in any balance of power either. Hull are a much bigger club than Rovers so stop kidding yourself, put your sock away and switch your computer off else you may well go blind
If FC weren't so poop, regardless of how poor the stand is, it would have sold out like it has done in the past.
I do agree the stand is way overpriced, but if the roles were reversed I'm pretty confident Rovers would have brought more than a pathetic 600

I've always said I will not "watch" a game from that South stand. It seems fans who have experienced it the last couple of seasons have also decided not to be ripped off anymore. This has nothing to do with any potential result IMO as we will take more than 600 to Wigan fully expecting to be beaten but at least we will be able to actually see the game and it will still be cheaper than that South stand. Still I'm sure that the lost revenue wont bother Hudgell

Last year we where worse than this yet sold out that side of the ground.
Everyone's sick of it, the view is crap and the price we pay is a joke. This coupled with the fact it's on Sky (for the first time at CP) and that it's a 6PM kick and the risk of trouble and it's clear to see why no one wants to go.
Rovers need to realise an away 'stand' like that won't be tolerated.

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!
