Cynical we all may be, but they are bums on seats and the more the merrier.

If only "£$$£"$$%%^ club had such an increase then we would all be happy.

Ok the games is now more about eyes on the box but if we can have both then so much the better.

The viewing figures in east hull top the ratings even more than Corrie








Sorry

I am not cynical in the least , I think Rovers have done absolutely bloody brilliant , more power to thier elbow


All 1,0 , no I'll leave it there

Highest attendance: 47,747 vs St Helens, 27 March 1959


This silly stuff about Hull KR taking the most fans everywhere has to stop, ok their fans are really good and make lots of noise but they do not take the most everywhere.

We take the most to Catalans, Harlequins, Wire and Saints.

In previous season we have taken more than 5000 to both Leeds and Bradford.

Leeds support around Yorkshire is pretty good as well.

They need to get their home support sorted first before they can even begin to start thinking about trying to gloat about having the best away support, they are not even over 10,000 average, and yeh they might blame it on away support, but we dont get any either appart from wire and saints and maybe if they got some good facilities, more people would go.

Thats told everyone then

I think the thing people don't like about this "traveling KR fans" topic is this.


They are Hull KR fans.

And they are traveling.

To where other people live.


Now, thats a problem, and let me tell you why.


Evolution.


See, a few million years ago primitive man started to travel. He wanted more than what he saw around him and so he got his leopard skin digs, grabbed his brontosaurus bone, got his sabretooth cat and his b*tch (In that order mind you!) and started a very long walk.

He walked for days. He walked for weeks. Hell, he walked for years.

He liked walking you see.

Anyway one day he settled down in a nice little place, smelled like fish, but at the time he put that down to his missus.


Time rolled on, and the rest of the human population evolved. This were invented, man moved forward and become a thinking beast.

However, deep in East Hull, primitive man had no idea about the changes going on around him.


Then, he discovered crack.


Now, I don't want to start running down any particular supporter base in the game, but Hull KR are violent, stupid, un-evolved, cave dwelling, criminal crack heads.

So when they get that itch to start traveling again.....of course people start to get a bit upset.


At the end of the day, its just a fact of life.

Death, taxes, a KR fan stole my car and shat on the back seat.



And so concludes this thread.

And you are a pillock

And you appear to aim your posts at people, there is no need. Then again you are a rovers fan

and you are a Wigan fan

Not another fan who is jealous. Read the sig

Jealous of a team 100 miles away



Nice sig just a pity its all in the past

Ok most recent season, we finished 4th in regular season and got the the final eliminator finishing 3rd overall.

Was pretty much the same the year before that actually.

Dont think we played rovers either year in the play-offs though.

No you didnt meet us in the play offs either of those years



On the other other hand you won nowt either

I've just found a few errors in the usually immaculate Rothmans, it claims Hull KR's average attendances in 1994/95, 1995/96 and 1996 were 1,900, 1,638 and 1,699 respectively. I can only imagine they missed a nought off the back of each one. How can a publication noted for accuracy get away with that?

I am just saying better than rovers and the other 11 teams. 3rd two years on the run is great considering the team we have.

you get a prize if you can name the ELEVEN other teams

now bearing in mind the fact that LF stated that English Rl was crap compared to Australian RL and he was right. I have to give his above point a high degree of credibility

Come on Odemwingie......Im waiting

thats how many new people started going each day isnt it?



oh it's not?

oh please stop



your so funny

fantastic











i've got one question though - what happened to make so many of them start travelling again ? i mean up to 335,000 every 2nd sunday - something is stirring in that part of west belgium

those figures are actually the number of people in east hull who didnt travel to away game - oh hang on ,no it could be right actually- those were pre- super league days thts why !!

Bleeding hell … I turn my back for two minutes and another thread goes spectacularly off the rails

Just say there was a food shortage, right?? It wouldn't take long before people started to travel further and further to get their food.

Same with crack.

You have to remember, these KR fans are all about migration patterns. They went north for the winter trying to find greener pastures in Africa, or as I like to call it, my spiritual home.

Anyway on their trip they get into the whole migration deal, as I said, they like walking.

Thats why you'll see KR fans walking around win one flip flop on. See, they found one, and they figure eventually they'll come across another on on their travels.

Anyway, migration is a big part of their lives.

Every second Friday for instance, the mature KR fan will migrate to the local dole office.

So the away trip is just built into their system.


I really should write a paper on all of this. I'd title it "KR Fans: A Step Back Down The Evolutionary Ladder".

Wigan V Saints attendance for that game played on 27th March 1959 was actually 47,477.

Are you sure ? , were you there ? , did you count them all ?
