Coach 2. South Stand. Me + 5.

My mate went in shop today. Only South Stand tickets left. They've sold 250 North Stand tickets.

Me +1, south stand, coach 10

Has your chairman paid for X number of coaches or is it however many supporters choose to attend are guaranteed a free coach place. ?

Meaning our shop or HKR?

Look at my pic.

Our shop mate.

Yes. Simon Moran (our majority sharholder) has booked 30 coaches for Hull KR however that is looking very unlikely as we only have 10 booked now due to Holidays, FA Cup Final and the game being on BBC. We have to pay a £1 Donation it isn't first come first serve.

Me, Tin Soldier and i hate pies in the golf stand...

I know Craven Park isn't the greatest ground in the world but Latchford obviously forgets or never went to some of the old traditional grounds.

Craven Park may be home to the Robins but it used to host Greyhound racing and Speedway which is why the South Terrace is so far from the pitch and unless you know of a way to move a block of concrete 25yrds its something you will just have to live with.

The club have big plans for the stadium both temporary and permanent however finding the millions in todays climate to do the work isn't going to be a quick task. We know Craven Park isn't wonderful but then neither was Wilderspool, Central Park and even now Knowsley Rd.

I think you miss the point, I have been to all the grounds you mention plus many more besides that may not be great. But at each of the grounds I have had a clear view of the game which is the main reason for attending. At Craven Park in the South the view is abysmal to say the very least.

My way of thinking is, "if you dont want to come, dont, you will not be missed and your place can go to a true fan"

I get fed up of so called fans not attending games then blaming the view or the food or the parking or the opposing fans attitudes..........I could go on! Please stay away, keep your moans away and let those that will be there have a cracking day.

The view is not perfect, but to allow it to prevent you attending a game so massive in its magnitude is both pathetic and dissapointing.IMO

I'm not a true fan I will view it on the TV considering it appears that the view you get is crappy and I would actually quite like to WATCH the game.

Think you have just proved your point, and mine! you quite obviously havent ever been to C.P before.

Sorry where did I say I am not attending.





I am attending and have been to Craven Park many times previously which is how I know where the best views are. It is also the reason I am not happy about being given the South Stand if I want to stand with the majority of Wire fans. HTH

No and it isn't being sold to me on here with the comments about poor views. Happy not to be a 'true fan'.

I have indeed been to many old traditional grounds like Workington, Barrow, Saints, Featherstone, Belle Vue (Doncaster's old ground) Central Park, Oldham (old and new) plus many many more.

At everyone of those grounds mentioned you get a better view than you do at craven park, in the eye's of the away fan's your ground will always be the worst ground for that reason and i'm going on Saturday before you say i'm making excuses not to attend.

I fully agree and until we get it sorted the away contingent for bigger games will suffer. I know plans are in place but funding remains difficult at present.
Anyways-safe journies to those travelling.

Indeed so. Most of the old grounds were very compact and often had good atmospheres due to the supporters being virtually on top of the players. The only things blocking the view were the rusty metal posts holding up the stand roof.

When did we play at Belle Vue? Its not a ground I remember visiting but I do have some hazy years.

Simple solution to the crap view at Hull KR is to have bought tickets for the North(?) Stand. You know what the South Stand (aka Amsterdamn) is like and you can do things to sort yourself out if you want to. It is a bit rubbish charging full whack to stand at that end.

Wasn't it that one season when they were in the old Stones competition? They had Matuatia playing for them.

When the Stones League was going, we had Greg Mackey playing for us and Doncaster used to play in Gold and Blue, not sure of the year but 1993 or 1994 rings a bell.

I remember going to Doncaster once. It was the first game that Cullen ever played in the forwards. I'm sure it was mid-week and peeing down (but that could have been Doncaster on a fine spring afternoon).

I didn't think that game was played at Belle Vue (although it might have been). I remember walking across some playing fields and paying at a table like you do at a school jumble sale.

Since coming into SL we've added 1267 seats into the North end and added 1250 onto the capacity of the East stand. We have plans for another 1250 onto the other end of the East stand. The north stand will move to the South with a new North stand holding roughly 4000 will be built.

Rome wasn't built in a day and since being promoted to SL we've come a long long way. There are clubs AKA Wakefield being making false promises for years where actioning our promises and in 2 years time i fully believe craven park will be a ground where people will enjoy visiting and none will be worried about the views.

I've personally stood in the South stand and you can still happily enjoy the game you have to remember prior to us getting into SL we used to have two tracks round the pitch the greyhound and speedway track hence why the South stand is where it is. Without that revenue at that time we may not be here today. Even with that revenue we where still being locked out of our ground





Have a safe journey down folks i hope you enjoy the match and sing your hearts out. May the best team win.

Is the total capacity of KR 10,000. I am sure that i have seen this figure on a couple of websites, however there appear to be a few guestimates over this figure
