As they say every cloud, after last night show ! But here come the dobbins to cheer me up loved the close ups on the supporters faces, we lost it, now weve nearly won it cant wait for the next installment.

I know it's on the wrong board but I have been banned for the past 5 years on their site

Presumably if they get relegated we'll have to disband the COHA?

ha ha love it !

As much as it'd be absolutely hilarious, I think it'd be bad for HullFC if they go down, the derby is our biggest payday by a mile, and is probably the difference between breaking even or making a loss in a normal year with no cup final appearance.

I'd doubt 5000 extra fans would make the difference, in fact we might get more neutrals and increased sponsorship if they went down, so we could be better off.

However it would be better for RL if Rovers stayed up.

Not much to sign if either club go down.

Our average attendance this season was 11,590. Take out the derby and the average was 11,169. Our average in 2003/2004 was 11,597 and 11,458. Rovers being in Super League of course lifts our average but it's not critical.

Definitely. People complain bout all the derbies but we wouldn't get the crowds we do at magic v any1 else
Home is a given. Bout 6k min on top of our standard crowds
Even make a few quid on the tickets we sell for at their place
Good Friday be lame v any1 else

Couldn't give a shat what happens them tbh..glad to be competing in big games with the other big clubs

When Hull KR were fleetingly ahead of us around 2009 Hudgell did a big article saying that Hull FC were of no consequence; Rovers were the best team in Hull and would next become the best team in Yorkshire. Well here he is now, £4m sunk and stood on a trapdoor whilst we're polishing the Challenge Cup, the enormity of winning which at Wembley he salivated about to any journo listening last August.

Rovers will remain in Superleague but maybe the posturing should be toned down and the empty vessel fans in a state of undress better managed.

Want them down and sunk!
No qualms about it.
See, it's easy.

Personally, I want them to stay up.

It's better for the City to have all our clubs in the top flight.

We would lose out finacially by losing that additional home Derby attendance

Wouldn't want to lose the Derbies from our fixture list.

Also intrigued to hear what they'd sing next season?

Well said!

They didn't bring that many to the last derby anyway and are obsessed with trying to get one over on us.

Well that will be difficult from the Championship

we could sell our s nickname, identity, and name and possibly merge with Newcastle and reinvent ourselves as the newrovers, why not its been done before

Why would any hull fan want rovers relegated, only a =#FF0000(word removed - Chris) would think it a good thing

Or you could sell your ground, get some free land off the council and build a new one, get an interest free loan from a council company (Wastewise), get restrictive covenants lifted off the gifted land to enable you to sell parts of it off, enter a CVA enabling you to not pay dozens of small companies, gets thousands of pounds of council tax written off and then get the council to build you a new stand so Grudgell can get his money back.

Why not, it's been done before.

Do Rovers still owe Allam for one of his other 'gifts to the city' (£1m? - loose cannon terms apply)

Forgot about that "gift"
No bad for a club that never get any help!

I suspect they'll stay up, but won't shed any tears if they don't.
What goes around comes around. Especially for Grudgell and his bullish posturing.

Empty vessels posturing. Mmm.

Have you forgotten Lilleys campaign to try and put us out of business.

As far as I'm concerned Rovers can drop down the divisions like a stone and disappear forever.

Me, =#FF0000(word removed - Chris). If you want to know what it's like not to have them around, go back in time( not that long ago). We didn't play them for 10-15 years, it was heaven. They're blight on the Earth and Grudge is Satan. See, it's even easier. 36 years of one single song, a club house named after the result, segregation at the ground, a plane flies over there's and FC are childish, come on.

And I still put a tenner into that stupid Walk for Rovers campaign, that was a great one.

Edited for accuracy!!

The old "sell our ground and land and only spend half the proceeds on a new stadium" trick!

This. Absolutely this.
