Its been cleared up slightly since we posted, a rovers fan that knew the facts helped out. Apparently the stand will be funded externally to rovers. Surely though as part of that arrangement there will be repayments to the 3rd party which will come from the pot we were discussing?

No such company exists; it's actually "Hull Kingston Rover FC Ltd" and has been since 1905.

The same way that you are called "Hull SL Ltd" and has been since your £1m handout from the RFL back in 1999.

Nope. Sponsors don't ask for repayments believe it or not.

Just think what a great stand extension you'd get if someone thought you worthy of a £1m gift

Now you're being silly.

You need to hit the 10k attendance figure and the extension will help with that? Will 10k turn up?

So the stand will be a gift from a sponsor?

Fortunately we have wealthy board members who happen to be die-hard fans so we don't need RFL hand-puts to continually humiliate our local neighbours at every available opportunity.

Indeed. Its not the certainty that some rovers fans think. I reckon they will get 10k and do fine out of it but there's still a lot of over confidence knocking around.

And as Hudge has also said, the club needs to become sustainable as that wont last forever.

Only going by what has been made public this week not really that bothered TBH.

It willl make a nice change for you Zoddie to finally get something right though....

I expect the 1,200 extention to put 1k on the gate easily which will take us to around 9,500 in the short term.

This isnt intended as a dig its just a statement of fact, how can you be sure that it will add to the gate when you dont sell your existing capacity out?

You mean like predicting FC wouldn't make the SL play-offs 2 years on the trott?

Isnt this the KR forum?

You have been predicting our demise for as long as you have been posting on message boards me old china.

We regularly sell out our existing capacity if you subtract the South Stand figure from it.

I know. Done quite well haven't I with you finishing 11th & 12th in successive seasons!

Look forward to a good year next year, I think you can jump up to 9th if Long stays fit.

It's actually Hull Kingston Rovers Football Club Limited. Sorry, who's paying for the East Stand extension again? The club, sponsors, directors? Do tell.

Agar's still the coach, you numpty.

How many does the south stand hold? Is that the away end?

North stand is the away end I think. I would need convincing that RBA is accurate with the regularly sell out statement TBH.

The NHS

seems John Prescott has been bleating because of the scheme they have with us

Agar is a legend - I love him - hope you give him a job for life...

Barely 600 when the small away following come from across the River Hull.
