So far it is only February after all give him chance he will come up with better LOL

imo theres only 1 derby, the losers sulk the winners dance, the way it is, love them when we win, hate them when we lose, good thing theres always another round the corner,

It always amazes me that so many FC fans allow their hatred of Rovers and our ground to stop them supporting their team.

Just cannot understand such a twisted mentality.

it's quite simple, many FC fans have higher standards than to travel East of the river, and certainly not to caravan park.

Thanks for sharing.

So by your own admission, your support for your team depends on the standard of the opposing teams ground.
I guess that explains why Hull FC have so many armchair supporters.
Real supporters like me, plus thousands of other Rovers supporters have travelled the lengh and breadth of the country in all weather, including heavy snow during winter rugby. Some of the grounds we've travelled to in the past wouldn't even be classed suitable for sheep never mind players and fans. No cover, no real toilets, no bars and in some cases little grass on the playing surface are just some of the things we have had to put up with, I include the old Boulevard to some extent in that summing up of old grounds.
Basically, as a supporter, the team comes first and the playing venue second.

New username, same old gormcloptitude.

You obviously arent very old or you would remember the threepenny stand where supporters used to stand and pee where they were stood ,so if you walked behind the stand you got soaked.Mind you maybe thats high standards in west hull.

First game I attended it happened to me. I thought it was raining. It was, it was raining urine.

Great days wonderful memories.

I think the Boulevard must have been the first ground to have water features installed at the back of one of the main stands.

Hull FC occupy the KCOM Stadium by the virtue of an accident of geography. How many millions would it have cost to bring the Boulevard up to standard which in all honesty was a slum in parts? If reports from a few years were correct Adam Pearson wanted to move Hull FC into their own stadium and the prefered location was the old Birds Eye factory on Hessle High Road and he was trawling around looking for investors. The cost of course was astronomical. The North Stand at Craven Park cost around £8 million and that was over 5 years ago. So four similar stands would cost £32 million for a capacity of circa 8,000 if it were to be all seated; more if not all seated. And that's at the prices of over 5 years ago. I don't think that Hull FC are in a good place financially at the moment hence their lack of quality recruitment and their retention of players in 2018. The hospitality facilities at Craven Park compare favourably with other Rugby League stadiums.

No, we occupy the KCOM because we are an anchor tenant and the funding wouldn't have been forthcoming if FC and City hadn't both agreed to be such. FC are financially sound, you won one derby game with a last second try, don't crow too much, you may end up embarrassed in a few games time.

Hey that's 2 straight derby wins please if you can't keep count of that you'll have no chance keeping up with your losing streak. No use trying to count on your fingers it's got way past that.

Hull even have to get permission from the Allam's to put up a picture of Johnny Whiteley and the ground is closed when Hull City want the pitch re-seeding. There's no doubting who rules the roost at the KC and it's not you lot.

We won the last derby of 2018 as well by beating you on your ground with our reserve team so that makes two.I know it must be a difficult sum for you 1+1,but trust me it does make 2.

We were poor last season, for reasons we all know. How we have so many players out again is beyond me, but we gave contracts out to players that should have retired.

After 11 successive losses you would have thought pearson would have spent a few quid after losing watts,who had enough of you and ellis retiring.
Only signing thompson who you got rid of because he wasnt good enough and matty dawson,could it be pearson has pulled the plug on spending.?

I think AP regrets the extensions/enhanced deals given out, I don't think he's pulled the plug on spending, jus don't think he sees a lot of point with so many of the squad OOC at the end of this season.

Caravan park or not, the East Stand at Craven Park has the best atmosphere in Rugby League. Fact.

only to Rovers fans, Castleford is the best atmosphere in the league when we play them away.

I wonder who weighted the agreement so heavily in the football teams favour?
Still paying dearly all these years later. Financially sound? Hmm.

How would you know that the atmosphere at Cas is better if you don’t attend derby games at craven Park

The Hull/Cas love in stopped when Cas got a good coach and started beating them regularly.

I would say that the best atmosphere's i've experienced were the early SL Derby's at The KC, before it got stal, it was bouncing with twenty thousand plus giving it everything. It was so loud you struggled to hear the person next to you.

The New Zealand versus Australia Tri-Nations final at Elland Road somewhere around 2005 ish where everyone turned Kiwi for the night and the Aussie's got humped was pretty good, although I had spent several hours in The Grove before kick off...

Probably because so many of you have such a hatred of our club and our ground that it stops you turning up and supporting your own team.

FC fans must be the only fans in the world that are so twisted that they let hatred of others spoil their enjoyment of cheering on their own team.

Yes of course I agree. The atmosphere was like that because both sets of supporters turned up!
