8,602 was the gate...who cares where everyone was sitting? As for empty seats???...ale doesn't fetch itself and I take it the seats in the stand arent also commodes?
As for the away fans...or lack of them, so what? Every club has a stadium with a certain amount of capacity...it is up to that club to sell as many tickets as possible. To keep posting the picture of the 30 or so taffs does you no favours.....if it was a valid point then we at Quins would blame all of the heartland teams for our dire attendances because you don't bring enough fans to games.....we don't though. Quins RL v HKR last year got a crowd of 2,819......that's not Hull Kingston Rover fault though...it's Quins RL's. ...I repeat....you will average closer to 9k a game by the end of the season and looking at the figures from the other club in your city, a few may be "crossing over"...they are over 5,000 DOWN whilst you are 2,319 UP!

Anyone who pays for the 10-5 hospitality gets a ticket to the west which is then wasted when they leave the ground and walk around to the east, some stay in the bars. Also some of the west is allocated to corporates and such who also sometimes fail to attend (the seat at least).

Bitter much?
We aren't bothered about you lot, yet a lot of your fans (you included) seem to be more concerned about our going ons. Your side lost to a team with one man less today (you knew they were playing right?) and your more worried about Willie Mason's debut. You're a sorry excuse for a fan, actually, you don't even deserve to be called a fan. Waste of space.
