Remember years ago when R.L. supporters actually travelled to watch the game and see the players skills and enjoy the matches.

I do it now – I travel more for a home game than most for away matches.. But I'd like to be treated with a modicum of respect along the way.
And Caravan Park is a ground I won't be visiting.

And there in lies the truth of the supporters that are good travellers and those that are not.

We at Hul K.R NEVER let the ground, stand, food, hospitality come into the reckoning, we are there to support Hull K.R and if that be from a cr@p hole of a stand like at Saints, Cas or Wakey the so be it, the price too is totally irrelevant, because if its twenty at say... Wigan and twenty two at Wakey thats not important enough to have us miss our team.

Don't start that amazing fan bullsh*t because It does not wash.
Where were the great fans of yours in the national league?? Really turned out in numbers to those cr*phole grounds.

Sorry... for a minute there I thought I noticed HKR and Cas fans arguing over who has the better ground!

Beats Hull KR and Hull FC fans arguing over who has the bigger injury crisis.

Correct, when they have just been thrashed off the park

Worst ground i've ever been to as well. The stewards might only be doing their job but few things are worse than having to sit down and get wet through. I've got soaked the last few days as part of my job but i'm on my feet and it doesn't bother me. Having to sit down and stay seated while it's p1ssing it down is no fun. Unfortunately Craven Park treats away fans like football fans which we aren't. £20 is too dear, how much is it to stand in the side stand? If it's cheaper, then away fans are having to pay more than home fans which isn't on, again something that happens in premiership football. Sadly it's the future, as more grounds become all seater, segregated affairs. Still might be going though.

that is one of the worst things about HKR the overzealousness of the stewards. the way they stop the away team players approaching their fans at the end of the game p1sses me right off. The bond between players and fans is on ething that separates Rl from soccer yet Hkr seem to be doing their best to undermine that.

Next two games at Craven Park are both attractive fixtures, one being for much needed Super League points the other to get into the Semi of the CC

Be interesting to see which game captures the imagination of the public (both home and away fans)....

You should have a word with the Sheffield fans about that
