No it isn't. And in answer to your first point, I wouldn't expect 'dancing in the stands' but given that Rovers put some effort in and were in the game until near the end I'd have expected [isome[/i support from the crowd.

your fans have been spoilt by the silky skills of dobson and are not used to you having lesser cutting edge in attack.
most fans are fickle.including yours when things dont go your way.and apart from that as a paying spectator in any sport you are entitled to show displeasure,indifference or elation as the occasion/display warrants
your missing dobson,any team would.

| Thought rovers were lucky that hudds were below par or it could easily have been 50 points. They bombed 3 clear chances you'd normally expect them to take.
Watching rovers trying to barge their way over the line reminded me of Hull..... a lot

| 7500 now that is shocking and it matched the rugby so what else is there to say but clueless again God help us in the next few games.
Why play two wingers on the same side and on the other play two midfield whats the idea there?.

Funny how you always try and put your and your own teams fans insucurities onto Rovers fans when we suffer a defeat, what are you trying to prove?.

| i have to give praise to kr 2night, i though you hung in well against us and i feel if u had dobson 2night u may have got the points but once dobson gets back in you will be a force for second part of the season
also nice to see some kr fans praising our fans i mean our support is small but we do make sure we have a good time away from home

You could tell from the first few minutes that your forwards had far to much firepower then ours, and we completly ran out of steam in the final quarter. A deserved win.

| Just got back, had a few drinks and a bit of banter with the KR fans in the bar next to ground after the game. Thanks for making it a great day out. Someone has to win and I think we deserved it overall. Only down side...It was bl00dy cold behind them posts. Good luck for the rest of the season.

I'm not trying to 'prove' anything. And I don't even understand the rest of your post. What insecurities?
All I was doing was making the somewhat mischievous point that despite the claims that Rovers fans cheer loudly and stay 'till the end win or lose, they are in fact no better or worse than any other fans.

Perhaps.
But had that been the final game of the season the vast majority would have stayed to applaud the players for their efforts during the season.
I even felt for your lot stood on the KC pitch last year after the play off defeat to a virtually empty home support.
Thats the diffference.
If you doubt what im saying it is on Youtube.

In your opinion.
My opinion is that both sets of fans will react similarly to similar circumstances.

i think most of the booing was aimed at the man in the middle though meast.
Huddersfield were up into the tackle quicker than us, they laid on longer than us, they were constantly offside too, BUT you play to the ref's whistle and if he doesnt blow it you keep doing it, so fair play to them.
Danny Brough was top quality last night, his kicking game is the best in the league by far IMO, his chip to Hodgson on his own 40, after spotting Fox right down field was class, him and Brown just controlled the game far better than our halfbacks could.

This combined with HKR being slow at the play the ball - Hodgson dithered many times - with a slow delivery to first receiver gave us ample time to get in your faces. Contrast this with our quicker ptb either the pivots were moving with the ball quickly or zipping out the passes straight from the floor. Your guys have slower line speed. the result was we found it easier to make yards all night and put you on the back foot.
Your conditioning is poor. You lacked explosiveness (inc Willie mason) and endurance. This will hold you back - and your best 17 are a formidable team.

Also your hookers were too slow. their hesitation meant we were on top of your 1st receivers for much of the game.

| Not trolling here but I am guessing the board won't be happy with last nights crowd. Even with Mason it has now dropped back down to just 7.5K, not enough for Hudge etc.
Maybe Sky made a slight difference?

I would have thought so, not sure how much difference though, maybe 500 at the most(just a guess). The team not playing well has an effect too.
Going to be a long time before see see an average crowd of 10k.

| Similar to last season's 7.5k vs Hudds.
Sky/Form/Opposition/Date/Time invariably affected the floating support.
Figures would suggest that the home support was down around 800-1100 from that of against Cats and Crusaders. Not great
Next up @ CP Leeds also on Sky - traditionally one of the bigger games. Imagine 8k region

A good game on friday night against Saints and ill gamble and say 8.5k against leeds.
Think the Derby may be recorded as the lowest one in SL yet at the KC though, if both teams carry on as they are.
