Loyalty will be tested if I can't get a season pass for the East Stand. Someone above posted that they weren't coming because they couldn't afford it, that's fair enough, I don't have a problem at all with that, been in the same position myself in past years, the problem I have is if you can afford it but aren't coming because the view is pants.
Would you pay to go into a cinema if you knew the film was being shown on a 15" tv?

Our game attracted 11,300 fans. The celtic game attracted 7,600. Using your weird logic 11,300 - 7,600 = 3700 which would actually prove my point. Are you always this thick?
I have been to every CP derby and always sat in the Golf Stand, it's anot a great view but it's okay. There is no chance I would pay to go in the South stand, in fact I would not go in for free, I would rather watch it on Sky. That said I am not going as I am going on holiday.
I don't see how either set of fans can gloat, both teams get great support home and away and we are foten envied by other clubs in SL.

Can you believe how fickle the "loyal " in any kind of weather fans are, excuses about poor ground, overpriced, poor view etc etc etc, is complete rubbish, If our league positions and form was reversed they would be packing that stand out, pathetic!!!!!, how the balance of power has truly changed

Don't know what all the fuss is about, the official Rovers website says "the fixture is sure to be a sell-out".
I'm choosing not to go. I've been to every game home and away this season bar London away and Murrayfield and have arranged our annual holiday around going to the Catalans game, returning on the day of the Harlequins home game to make sure we don't miss it.
As I've said before, for me the atmosphere at derbies crosses a line. Th choice is to turn up and have a rubbish view and potentially be spat at, or staying at home, watching on tv and depriving Hudgell of £34 which includes a £14 FC premium. The fact that we'll get well beaten is neither here nor there, otherwise why would I have gone to Headingley and Knowsley Road?
Look the fans that have been in that end have usually only done it once and after that they give it a miss. The simple fact is KR are ripping FC fans off by charging the price they do, its back fired this time with it being on SKY.
Your profit from the game will be well down, indeed you may not now actually make any profit from the game due to the police imposing massive charges on you for policing the game day and time change.
Fickle, fair weather fans ( it needs to be fine at Craven park for away fans ) glory hunter whatever and you can bleet at FC fans as much as you like, but it will be b your club that suffers not FC.
For once greed, avarice and bloody mindedness has caught up with you.
Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.;

600 Dullers being overcharged should be a better profit than 10 celtic fans so dont worry about it
