My lad said he doesn't want to go either and he was Hull FC mad up until the start of this season. Another legacy of the agar years, disenfranchised kids

If the club don't know you only get one shot at keeping the kids interested then there will be no future for the club.

EXACTLY!!

Same here , my 13 yr old was FC mad, totally lost interest now, goes to City with his mates instead, can see this being the lowest derby attendance at the KC so far by quite some way,

Has there been a ticket sales update? I was told over the weekend that over 19000 had already been sold. If that is the case the game should be heading towards a sell out.

Kids do lose interest in things though regardless of how the team is performing. Not saying this current situation does not make it worse but kids drift in and out of things all the time.

Bit o/t here but just thought I would ask has anybody got a copy of last seasons Derby game at cp??? Trying to track down a copy for personal reasons.

Indeed, but he's still rugby mad but just says it's boring going to watch Hull

Oh well, can't argue with that too much!

I must admit, I've got no desire to go. Its a boring and frustrating experience...

He was at the kids camp at the KC today so hopefully that's re-invigorated his interest

You know the next question.....can he play 7?

He's a scrawny little fecker so maybe in a few years.

If we play crap in this game,I truly think it will be hard for me to muster interest for the rest of the season.What a bloody state of affairs.

I'll be there but can't say I'm looking forward to it.

I wouldn't be remotely surprised to hear over the next 48 hours that Mason's passport has cleared and that both he and Dobson will return.

I can see Rovers winning this by at least 12 and the only bright side is that we'll be one game nearer to Agar leaving.

Sums it up. Depressing much.

Surely that would be enough. Surely.

You would hope it is a certainty, but I just dont think it will be, i can see him in charge till the end of the season

Well I can't see them firing him between the Easter fixtures. Two poor defeats may signal the end though.

I honestly don't think so. They won't sack him between Easter fixtures. My main source of hope ATM is that they've persuaded the RFL to move the tribunal to coincide with considering his position in light of the tribunal outcome on Tuesday evening.

Maybe if we do get humped by Rovers he will do the honourable thing?

Well, the club always seem happy with a 50% record from the Easter programme, so I guess on that basis we'd have to lose both for it to even be considered.

Clutching at straws, we are.

Only update is that less than 200 tickets remain in the south stand, the South has overtaken the East stand as the 'pay on the day' stand as it is the only unreserved stand at the KC now.

Unsure whether it will get over 20K now, the boost/hype that the Gleeson signing offered evaporated after Saturdays performance.

I don't know why you seem to think we've got anything half decent to offer in terms of performance. We are missing our 1,2,5,7,11 and we haven't won a proper away game since September

All things point to a comfortable FC win
