[urlhttp://www.informationfeeds4u.co.uk/news/private-equity-outfit-inflexion-looks-to-offload-parasol[/url

was that "For Sale" or "Fire Sale"

damaged goods, as Parasol has been for some time, I know at least 4 contractors hwo have ceased to use their services in recent times.

Can`t we talk about Gleeson cos the dobbins are well and truly on the ropes over this latest setback of theirs. Don`t you just ove it when the boots on the other foot. What a great weekend in store.

48 hours is a long time in rugby league.

Yes there is. If Hull City didn't play at the KC, do you think our rent would be the same?!

Not really a concern, just annoying that this subject keeps coming back. And I really dont like the fact that Allam is craving for a merger.

It's just unwanted news, regardless of where it's from.

You've said there is that football ruins the pitch because it's played in winter. The pitch is fine in summer and another team is playing in summer.

All that basically means is that you definitely couldn't have two football teams playing on it. Come the end of the rugby season, whether there's one team or two, the pitch will be fine because it's played in summer.


I think there is a lot more to the derby than "east meets west"! If anything, it'll make it even more of a local derby. You can't get any more a local derby than playing in the same stadium!


Yes, and if this happens it could bring them down further.


Do you not think it's rather contradictory to say that the derby would lose build up if they moved in and then say the above?

I think the derby would lose more build up if Rovers went bust! Which would you rather happen?


As long as you admit that you're opinion is ridiculous, that's OK

Mr Allam will save them .

Once Again, you only quote my responses.. look mate, just do 1.

everyone can say there opinion and they are mine..

what im saying about the pitch is that it has 20 odd football matches, the usually it would have 13-14 rugby games with a week off inbetween. but if rovers come in its 26-28 games for the full 28 weeks.

i dont think rovers should come to the kc Because there only doing it to save themselves..

look forward to your quote once again

What else am I supposed to quote other than your response?! I've replied to everything you said. What more do you want?

And again, don't you think it's slightly contradictory to say that everyone can say their opinion and then tell me to do one?


I know what you're saying. I don't agree, and you're entitled to your opinion. The reason I don't agree is because of how you've come to your conclusion. You've said the rugby is fine during the summer months on the pitch. A second club, whilst increasing the wear on the pitch, wouldn't be that significant (IMO) for that reason. The pitch only struggles to hold up during the winter, and that's not being affected.


Well why else would they do it?!

And why does it matter? If we get a better deal because of it, I'm for it. How will it affect Hull FC negatively in a practical sense other than a potential bit of extra wear on the pitch?


That's fine. If you actually address the points I've brought up about your quote, I'll look forward to yours.

First off other people has said things that its a bad idea, but ya don't quote them, and that's why i told ya to do one..

About The pitch, i think it will make a difference, because its only going to hold 2 teams for about 2-3 months and then football going to start again. We Have One Of The best pitches in the league, (when football finishes.)

Regarding Hull Kr, I'm a fan that doesn't want them at the kc. Ever since they joined super league, they have been finding loopholes in everything and because there stadium doesn't match the criteria they want to move to kc, who knows if its temporary or full time.

But dont you think bit of extra wear on the pitch is going to improve season after season??

Because yours was the most ridiculous. To think the KC could lose all credibility cannot be justified at all so I couldn't ignore it.

You can't complain about not being allowed an opinion and then tell me to do one. It sort of contradicts your original complaint!


The pitch would only hold 3 teams between Feb and May (4 months) and then for a month between the middle of August and middle of September (which would be the summer month anyway). The only time the pitch would be poor is during the start of the first four months, and that's because the football will have ruined the pitch. Come April, the pitch will hold up better, then by June it will be fine.


Why does it concern you what they're doing? You're not one of them kind of fans that pays more attention to his rivals than his own team are you? If it benefits Hull in any way, I couldn't give a stuff what they're doing.


Yes, and it does already. Because of the football in the winter.

If you two are going to have a domestic, can you please at least get a room and save the rest of us from your petty squabbling?

What I cannot get my head round is, A few season ago I posted WHY don't Rovers play they home
game with Hull F C at the K C Stadium so more fans have a better chance to get to see the game .I was shoot down in flames.
The reason other posters( more Rovers fans) stated why should they give up ground advantage.
But now that they are in trouble it's a good idea to ground share .They had there chance way back to ground share now they can take a run and jump for me.

Why should Hull Fc Bail rovers out,

because if i remember rightly..

Wasn't Rovers in trouble when they had the boulevard?? That's why we bought it off them and they went to craven park??

They are a cap in hand Club

Didn't you know it's customary to have a domestic out in public? This is the internet version of arguing out in the front garden

i Wonder how rovers would feel if we needed to ground share with them??

The board or the players?

I'd think they'd snap up the chance of extra revenue personally.

They still wouldn`t get the crowds needed .

I think when FC are on Sky and one of our players is voted MOM and asked who's charity is going to receive the £100 then they should say "Hull KR ground fund"

Let the dobbins rot as they would us in the same situation and have done in the past.

Let Allam bail them out as east hull needs a badminton stadium.

As for ground sharing, I hear Wakefield are after a new stadium and their coach likes Hull.

Tut Tut

Just looking it from a Rovers perspective, I wonder whether their fans would follow them and if so what gates they would average?

On one hand I think their support might drop, however on the other hand with better facilities, all sides under cover etc their crowds may go up.

If they do move in, I think it will become permanant as I can't see them wanting to move back to NCP and having all that upkeep and re-development work.

Let's be honest, KR are a small club, they cannot manage over 9,000 when their ground is in their "heartlands", moving to the KC would be more expensive, and if even 20% of their fans found the move unpalettable then they'd really struggle to afford the rent.

This story is about KR attempting to put pressure on the council, a council that have much higher priorities in terms of civic/corporate responsibilities than a loud mouth ambulance chaser and a dodgy bloke from Egypt, and if KR think HCC are in any position to try and bulle the various EU establishments that are allocating the monies then I suggest Grudgell and co have a think, which is more important, Caravan Park or the Siemens Energy Park?

I know which I'd rather the council concentrated on.
