Pearson has said before, he will only agree to this if it is beneficial to Hull FC so i dare say we will get some money out of it and it's not a foregone conclusion the seating arrangements will change.

Seems like a sensible choice if the numbers stack up. Probably be some wailing and gnashing of teeth for all that. Tbf, it's probably only sentiment that has stopped it happening before this, and the prospect of the new North stand happening should ease the pain for those that don't like it. If Rovers are paying to use the facility, their fans should get the home seats. It's not like Hull fans have paid for 'their' seats for this fixture.

We might get more money. Without knowing the financial arrangments, this is far from guaranteed. Personally, I'm more concerned about giving up home pitch advantage for the game. However, given our recent shambolic defence, the concept of any advantage seems a little fagile.

I would expect ( as the home team) that Rovers will get to use your East Stand for our East Stand passholders and one the the end stands. We will also require access to the West for the corporate stuff which will have been planned for Craven Park that day. I would expect Hull to be given the other end, West Upper and probably some West Lower if the demand is there (which it won't be).
I don't expect more than 15k to attend.

Adam Pearson will do what his boss Mr. Allam tells him to.
Please remember the KC is simply a facility you hire 13 times a year. If someone else wants to hire it on a date when it is available then Hull FC have no say in the matter.

You're more than aware that that isn't correct.
Not particularly fussed, if the numbers stack up then do it. The way we're playing at the moment unless we change our pitch so it tips in either half into a slope in our favour home advantage won't count for much.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.
