Is it catching because just about everyone I pull up over spelling/grammar seems to suffer from it. Way to avoid the other points I made though, I'll just leave it at that as to save further derailment of this train wreck of a thread.

getting away from that i think it will be a close game but with us losing scrum half dobbo as well as webster think we are up against it cas by 6-8 i say

A very well thought out and constructive argument. So in what ways would this serve the community? A show of authority, show youngsters you can't do what he did and get away with it? All arguments I've heard before but does that kind of threat actually make kids or even adults change their ways? I'd say you would be looking at a 0.0001%.

Has dealing with this in the way it has been done Ben the world of good? Yes, has he changed? Yes. Has he reoffended? No. Isn't that what fighting crime is all about, they are not prisons anymore they are correction centres and if you can correct a person while keeping them in society surely this is the best possible outcome?

Yeah, we are due a bit of luck with last years results in mind

We should, on paper, win this but games aren't won on paper. Think we have the edge in the halves with Dobson out and hopefully this will lay a platform for our forwards to get some metres. We are also looking pretty good defensively against 'bigger' sides and our fitness levels look pretty good also.

Well expect a good crowd on Sunday we have sold our second batch of tickets so expect it to be loud unless were getting hammered that is.

Just heard Newton and Clinton may be missing from this game too, if so we are going to need Matt Cook and Jase Netherton to really step up and Scott Taylor is going to need a big game also

What allocations were you given?

Give over!



We had the entire North Stand, East stand down the side and we had seating in the West Stand, which I believe was sold through the RFL. You had the North-West corner (774) and some of the West ( which holds a total of 3k).

Considering we had the North (2774), East (1965) and I'd say about 20% of the West (740) approx, that means we had at least over 5k fans there.

Not sure and there will be people paying on the gate

Hate it when KR come. Always bring big following and are always loud. Cas fans need to be on song Sunday. Club should push them to railway end to make them quieter.

We have big gobs thats the problem, and we just go were the majority are so dont matter were u put us you will hear us

Can we leave you in Hull?



Don't care if there's 20,000 Hull fans or 200,000 Hull fans. As long as they all pay full whack and buy shedloads of beer/drinks/food in the ground! Oh and buy the new programme, Black and Amber.

Well we have paid full price reckon there cud be two and half thousand there for some reason we seem to sing more when we go away, youve got a good team this year and seem to play for each other which is good but i have to say RED AND WHITE all the way

Should have bought 'em from Cas and got a half-price ticket to see us play Catalans next week (two games cheap - what more can you want?)

Ah but you see we know half the money from tickets bought from the KR shop goes to KR thats why they have sold so many logic in our madness

I concur. Rovers sold 2,800 for the 2005 NRC Final, meaning we were outnumbered by more than 2 to 1.

The reverse happened the following year when we sold 5,400 to Leigh's less than 2,000. Great support from Cas in 05, I really miss the day out in Blackpool, both trips were great.

A quick scan of the thread with little reading on my part made me think this has ended a "my dads bigger than your dad" thread.

From me, it's a big welcome to all Rovers fans. Right back from our NL1 encounters you've always brought a good following, enjoyed your day and always had a team capable of giving us a good game. It's what RL is all about for me and it's one of the fixtures I look forward to.

Who's fed you that garbage?

Yes, so do I but........................Not that much

Isnt that how it works

Finally,somebody prepared to admit it.Kudos Ginge.

well it's true

It's not 50%, I think it is 10%

... and like their FC compatriots, they always try and steal my spot in the Princess St stand ...
