Sorry, my mistake. Obviously an atmosphere is generated by having a crowd dotted around empty seats making absolutely no noise.

In all fairness the atmosphere at Craven Park on sunday was better than that at the KC, however I have also been to CP when the crowd have been silent for 99% of the game. So maybe its best not to compare the best crowd at CP for years with one of the worst at KC.

Can't argue with that. It'll be interesting to see how things pan out though.

just a thought,would hull have got 8000 if there kick off time was the same as ours and didnt get changed??

Dunno, but you'd have had at least 5 less.

Nearer 9000 I would have thought. The fact is was live on SKY and a cr4p time will have put plenty off

I'll more then admit to saying it i 100% believed that we had a chance of achieving the feat. I mentioned this BTW before your match with St's and before our match with Oldham.

Had you been Trounced as expected by Saints

and As expected we'd of beaten Oldham and Cas brought as many as i thought they would I.E another 1000 Then do you not think the Attendances would have been a damn site closer. After your Win over saints i was big enougth to admit that it wouldn't happen and a crowd of less then 10000 for you would be Poor Oh well

If cas would have brought the Expected 2500 the attendance would have been 6000 add a win to our Big defeat at Oldham the week before then we may have touched 6500. How many would have been at the K.C had you not beat St Helens?? 7000?

Wouldn't have been far wrong would I

We have an average crowd of just over 7,000 and we have been stuck in the bottom two all year id say if Hull kr did get promoted i would budget on a 5,000 average home gate which would be better than salford,london e.t.c

8O

Average crowd of over 7000? Have you once got over 7000? I'll have to take a Butchers but i can't see your crowds been over 7000 on average.

But hey i'm usually wrong.

Its a Widnes fan Easty, not Leigh.

The name and avatar are a good clue dontya think.

If, if, if. If my uncle Frank had tits he'd be my auntie Fanny!

If it hadn't been on sky (which I don't think it was originally planned to be) you could probably have added a thousand or two. If we wern't playing London (well done to the 60 odd who did travel BTW, cant be fun getting back into london at midnight), you could have added say 750ish. If we didnt have 3 home games and CC final on the bounce I imagine a few more would have shown up aswell.

Isn't "if" a great word.



Just out of interest since cas were expected to bring a 1000 more, how has that affected the oft repeated mantra that the cas game will shoot your average attendence up to the required level. And to think some of your fans were claiming we were inviting the cas fans to the KC to boost our gates when for months its been your main defence to make the break even.

IF Hull FC hadn't gone bust in 1999, then they could legitimately wear their reborn badge bearing est. 1865.

Should read:

Hull FC est 1865 to become Hull Sharks and disband 1999

Hull Superleague Ltd (Franchise) est. 1999

Sorry, but I've only just had time to come back to this. Perhaps you'd like to explain your need to try and become insulting when I asked what I thought was a very pertinent question.

Following on from this I guess you don't know how many season ticket holders your team has, hence the attempt at being insulting.

Following on from yesterday's 6576 attendance at the KC I would guess that there were quite a few at the London game who actually put money through the turnstiles. The problem is you see, the club get the revenue for season tickets at the beginning of the season and spend the cash accordingly. They don't save a particular match's share of the ticket until the match but they still have to find the money to pay the stadium what they owe dependant upon the size of the gate. They also have to pay the tax man dependant upon the size of the gate. This could lead to cash flow problems if the amount of actual cash coming in through the turnstiles doesn't meet the bills to be paid.

I hope that when the Dragons move to the new stadium in 2007 we can acheive crowds of 6576 but I'm not holding my breath. I just wondered what your take on the season pass situation was.

Now if you'd like to come back with an intelligent and wll thought out response I look forward to hearing it.

We have around 6500 season pass holders, as you know not every passholder attends every single game.

How can I respond when you haven't posed a question?

As for you getting 6500. Are you stoned?

Interesting Thread now its actually happened.

Someones been digging deep in the archives (or did you bookmark it 18 months ago on the offchance it would be useful.

)

These are the kind of people I have had in my cab over the years.
Thank god for people like Neil Hudgell and others with people like this on the planet anything can happen. I HATE NON BELIEVERS AND THIS TOWN IS FULL OF THEM. PEOPLE WITH VISION IS WHAT WE NEED AND ANYTHING CAN AND WILL BE CONQUERED.

What a fool the original poster has turned out to be!
