Yes i'm sure this time next year we will have won 9 out of the last 12

I would imagine Hudge asked him to post it on his behalf.

Go to the Rovers shop, or phone them up, buy a ticket, go to the match - how hard is that? I bought my KC derby tickets direct from FC after we'd filled your North Stand, it really wasn't complicated and it meant I got to see the game. Everything else you go on about is just pitiful excuses I'm afraid - ooo, the Golf Stand hasn't got a roof and the angle of seating isn't quite as good as the KC. Hmmm, yes, I can really see how that'd put you off, nothing to do with your league position or fear of watching FC lose to Rovers. Dear oh dear.

Rovers fans not buying the Golf Stand tickets is a swerve. We had circa 8,500 fans there, we have lower home support than you for decades of reasons... but they all turned up on Saturday. You lot on the other hand? Well only about 6-7% of your home fanbase wanted to support your team in the local derby. Well done.



Anyway, like the other bloke said, to be honest I really don't care that much about crowds as long as we're winning and higher in the league. The fact you had a bigger home gate wasn't that depressing for me in 1980, 1984 or 1985, amongst others, and I'm sure it won't bother me in the years to come either

Less than 25% of your home fan base supported Rovers 3 years ago. Well done you

Bollox - we averaged approx 3000 in 2006 - that's between 35%-40% of our 2009 average so far.

Don't change the subject, yet another tangent. I live in London and work abroad most weeks so only get to 3 or 4 games a season (mainly the derbies for some reason...), but I still buy a season ticket and have done for years. So yes, well done me, thanks for the pat on the back, my own loyalty is unquestionable

Here's your free maths (and history lesson):

25% of 8,500 = 2,125

3 years ago (2006 season), Rovers average home gate was 3,100 (bit like a few of your Super League gates prior to your merger).

What was it in 2005?

Dunno, but irrelevent because you said 3 years ago (2006).

Pah, another plastic fan

I actually meant over 3 years ago. My bad.

Ok then 36% of your fan base can claim to be loyal since 2006. Congratulations.

Great Thread this


Not content with bitching about each other on your own boards, you feel the need to invect the VT as well.....

The VT needs it.







Don't think a Quins v Skolars thread would generate quite as much interest really would it?!

Over 3 years ago? 10,421 season average

Just answer the question

Say what now?

You come onto a thread discussing the Hull derby and expect anything else? How many other threads on the first 2 pages of this forum are discussing either of the 2 Hull clubs?

...not nearly enough

The Hull FC fans on this thread are pathetic.

moan moan moan... the view is not good, we don't like the chairman, it might rain.... whine whine whine

They really are symptomatic of the plastic sky armchair fan.

Terrible.

Remind what our average attendance is again?

Would you pay £7 more than everyone else to go to cinemas, knowing you will only see half of the screen ?

The away end is pathetic at Rovers; if they had a half decent stand the derby's would be far better at CP

There today as it happens

North Stand had available tickets, blah blah blah, can someone lock this thread now we're going round in circles (this discussion probably needs a decent half back to organise it

)

Probably because most of these hardcore Rovers fans who would go to the ends of the earth to watch their team were actually in the pub.
