Not just our fans then is it

Ok everyone else, bar one other fan, disagrees with it.

You happy now?

Yeah you could be right cos every single fan in world rugby is on here aren't they.




Are you gutterfax in disguise BTW?

No they aren't, but looking around other boards, most are not happy. I know if Quins did it I wouldn't condone this, but some Hull KR fans seem to have no problem with it. Anyway I feel the same way towards your patronising comments about our travelling support, when we have to clock up far more miles than you.

And no I'm not. I guess we both have similar points to make to KR trolls such as yourself and Roofs.

Not patronising, it's just garbage.

Gutterfax's brother?

So saying we bring "two fans", as you said earlier, isn't patronising? And if it is so poor, then why don't you do what Wigan do and promote the game to get more locals in? Instead of bitching and whinging and trying to blame us for your average crowds.

Judging by your boasting, your crowds to the Stoop aren't too much to gloss home about either.

Did I?, Who?, Me?, Where?

Yes. In the 'Hull clubs thread' on the VT, you quoted me saying "50%" of our support is gone if I don't go. Check for yourself.

Alright I got it wrong, I apologise. Off the top of my head, I only remembered 'rover' in the name. Anyway, I still think the attitudes towards our away crowds are patronising.

begs the question, what has Dobson been doing while he has been de registered?? have KR been paying him? if so is that included on the salary cap

That's it, jump in feet first without thinking

Why? When it's nothing short of pathetic?

Flat cap ALERT

Aye lad, while we are out walking us whippets tha knows

I don't see how you expect us to take so many, we have no local games and all our trips are over 3 hrs long. Not to mention expensive to travel so much. The people who criticize our support are the ones who don't travel to London themselves. As I said, if it's so bad then why don't you do what Wigan do and increase the home support?

Anyway, home support is far more important to need increasing atm, than our away support.

Maybe we should, we certainly have been struggling to reach 9000 in our last two home games.

Great! I hope to see 9000 there on Monday too! Of course, I hope the majority will leave unhappy

I hope the 8998 will be the happiest

I'm not as confident now you have Dobson back. I wish Mason was playing, was looking forward to seeing him against our pack

C'mon PP, if there's one club and bunch of fans that have no right to criticise Rovers for working the rules and playing the margins on eligibility it's Quins - talk about people in glass houses. Progress in recent years doesn't delete over a decade's messing about and special exemptions, covering up massive neglect of junior development. I remember the years at Griffin Park when it was Kolpak-a-go-go, I've never seen so many Aussies and Kiwis on dodgy passports.

(Guess I don't need to declare an interest here mind, it's somewhat obvious...)

Well said

nah our away support is dreadful (the peeps that go are great- just that theres only a couple of them)
and is truly embarrassing to SL. Ive said before if our fans went to just one home game a season we'd bring around 200-300 a game.
We dont
Its the same 50 week in week out that do the away trips.
Yes they are all long trips and yes many are on a friday night, which both add to the diffiuculty in building an away support culture.
but the sad fact is almost all our fans choose to miss half our games cuz they dont feel the journey is worth watching us.

again, im not saying people should go to every away game, - time, cost, distance, getting back at 3,30am on a friday night and having to take a day of work to get to the games, but that still leaves a whole host of fixtures (like Hull KR on monday) that people can get a train there and back - only £20 cheers paddock - where there will still be the same old faces in the away stands.

A fair few people on here go to as near as all the away games but the vast majority of our fans dont go to any which, just goes to the argument that we have the worst supporters in the league.

Don't buy into that at all. We now have licensing and "home grown player" rules with the specific intention of trying to bring more English players through to have a chance internationaly. I think you could say that Quins have bought into it whereas 10 - 20 years ago we couldn't. Are Hull KA buying into it?

Fortunately we have moved on. HKR don't really have any excuse.They are hardly an "expansion" club are they

Not me ,I trod on mine whilst clog dancing.
