Just think, wouldn't it be so nice and refreshing if we had a Rovers fan come and say they were looking forward to seeing us, hoped we brought a few more this time and that we'd been playing good stuff etc. The closest we get to that is the owner of that boozer trying to get our money over his bar with the rest being attempts at condescension and general egotistical garbage.

Nope, it's the usual we have no fans stuff. No doubt the Shuddersfield stuff will be coming for the main course with a sweet consisting of Stanley Gene liking Rovers more than us!

Why should I prove you wrong when you're so effective at proving me right?
I'll be there despite knowing I'll probably get abused at least once and if we happen to win I may end up being threatened. I can't do any more than that.

And we OWN part of the ground son. The football club own exactly ZERO percent of the ground. If you're going to come and chuck dirt, make it dirt that is relevant instead of the usual made up nonsense.

Thanks in advance.

and that is what has happened every time i've been to Hull KR - its not so much our fans cant be botheredgoing its more of the unwelcome feeling you recieve when you are there that puts people off - sorry if that annoys any KR fans but sadly that is the truth - make your 'home' more welcoming to visitors and mor ewill come - easy !!

on the rovers forum they are attempting to build a team of superleague players who have been found guilty in court etc.. of the 13 , 3 are current rovers players and one is an ex player (this was quoted by one of their fans).. its no wonder the fans can be a little aggresive when you build you team around convicts.. its great to be part of a friendly family club with less away support than be part of that rabble

Hi All.
Looking forward to seeing you all on Monday.
I hope you can bring a few more this time seeing as the Giants have been playing good stuff etc.

No really - Lets have a beer or two in pre-match banter.

It's good for us 'middle clubs' to worry the big boys nowerdays!!!

Hi Basil how ya doing?

i would love to come and have a beer with you but unfortunately i wont be there as my financial situation has got the better of me !.

i think it will be a good game between 2 evenly matched teams on paper but on current forn i would take the Giants at the moment.

as for us bringing more i think you need to revert back to my last post to see why,unfortunately for the team, there wont , again,be many Giants fans at Craven Park !!
