That's the first sane comment I've seen on this thread.

You're currently paying a nominal rent for NCP, you'd see a fair increase if you were to move to the KC

A huge number of Rovers fans would walk away from the club if they moved to West Hull so the owners would have to be idiots to sanction this.

If it did happen and we moved there it wouldn't stop me going and as someone said after a while it would just become the norm but I wouldn't really like to play in a half empty stadium for home games. If it ends up to being the only way the club can balance the books then it has to be done but I do hope we can get this north stand built soon and make craven park home for a very long time to come

half empty stadium is very optimistic

I can honestly say hand on heart if we moved to the KC I wud not attend as much as I love the club and have for 33 Years it's not the route I wud choose to go down I'd prob just Stik to going to away games I just can't get my head round avin to sit at the KC, so I'm hoping it's all a load of twaddle

It's only so burdensome on FC because they pull in well over 7,500 fans. The ground rent wouldn't be that much more than repayments on the new North Stand.

Some would, and they'd no doubt be vocal. Enough to kill the club? Very possibly. But staying in an undeveloped Craven Park isn't viable long-term either - so it'd be more a case of no good options than idiocy.

I suspect, or hope at least, that the reality is different to what's on the surface.

Been obvious this was the next step ever since the cosy relationship betwene hudge and allam started. Mp issue from me and if a few rovers fans spit their dummies this will be more than offset by new fans and increased revenue from other sources.

It will give Hull the bargaining power to improve their deal so wins all around for me
