Great support today : Sun Feb 15, 2009 8:35 pm  

Thought we turned out in droves again, just a shame odsal cannot generate an atmosphere, if the crowd was 14k+ then there must have surely been 4-5k of red and white. Spoke to about 4 Bulls fans and they all said we are the best supported away team they get.

We Brought 2.5K according to their board.

It was 12000 and something.

Most seem to think we brought just over 3k, I'd tend to agree.

How much does the away end hold?

You've got to laugh at the posts from the bitter Bulls Site... arguing the toss that we we only took 2.5K... can you remember the last time they brought that to CP... but there is a downside... we cost them in more Police payments

Shame all of you couldn't behave. They're kicking off on the Bulls' board about having to close down the Touchdown bar because of Rovers fans causing trouble and fighting outside afterwards.

I don't thinkyou realise how badly it reflects on every fan from the city. Only since your promotion to Super League do I find myself having to constantly defend Hull FC's reputation away. It's really getting a bit wearing, can't you take photos of persistent offenders and get them banned?

You are completely blinkered... why defend FC's reputation?... surely the live TV demolition of The Galpharme made it rather difficult.

Smell the coffee... wake up and understand that with a large away following comes a minority FOR BOTH CLUBS... if you only see Rovers failings you are a complete fool.
Don't go on other sites trying to score brownie points as you will only fail, the problem is deeper than a blinkered fool can address!.

I agree, if there were some idiots causing trouble then its up to the club to ban them from Craven park and travelling to away games.
The people who run the coaches must know who they are, these useless scumbags tar every one else with the same brush.
Its a real shame when we take fantastic away support and you get a few moronic muppets who cant take their ale, spoiling it and giving everbody at the club a bad name.
IF YOU CANT HACK IT, THEN STAY AWAY. The club and the real supporters dont want you.
