Did those saying that it is ridiculous to suggest a single Hull team could attract 20k average...

If a Derby game between the two pretty unsuccessful clubs can attract 22k, why couldn't they all watch one club if they were doing well? And that's not including away support?

If we merged, yes you'd lose fans because they wouldn't like the change, but that wasn't the point being made.

Didn't we buy part off them?

If it's the Ideal Standard training ground, then why is it in the SMC accounts and not City's?

And even if it's not the training ground, what asset does/did the SMC "own" that it can now simply write off?






Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?

Quite. The question being 'Are there potentially at least 20, 000 rugby league fans in the city who would attend matches?' The answer, yes, as has been patently shown already.

Even in the Premiership City sometimes are not hitting £20k. And a large proportion are self-confessed 'plastics' (runs for cover).

Name the City games with less than a 20,000 attendance.

This responds of yours well and truly overtakes the silly claims you made.

And, is it 2020 already? :shock:

For Home attendance only? Most, I would imagine as the North Stand takes 4000 Away fans.

As a company it will be able to buy and sell assets, suppose it's possible it bought the training facilities and rented them to City.

Could you expand?

Do you disagree that there have been less than 20000 home fans at City unless there has been a sell-out? If so, how, as the Away Stand seats 4000? What else is there "to know", unless you mean the ability to perform basic addition and subtraction, such as that held by the average 6-year-old?

For Premier league games at the KC the away allocation is 2,500 max.
