not really, its a charge the fans have to pay thats 7 times what we are taking additionally from you. We are giving ours to charity, Hudgell pocketed yours to help pay the interest on your debts.

How some Rovers fans can moan about the extra £1 is daft. FWIW i dont agree with us taking the £1, but in the wider context i can see the funny side of some of your lot moaning.

Relevant for me and others.

Hudge slaps an extra £7 quid for Hull fans ONLY, and pockets the rest.
Hull slap a quid on for ALL paying spectators and give it to charity.

Never known such a set of whinging gits in all my life

The £1 is an additional charge, just like the £7. Only difference being that FC are then giving the additional monies made to charity as a donation. The £1 is not a donation.

If you're complaining about Rovers raising the price for the derby match you may have a valid point. However that is not the issue here. If you can't see the point people are making then you're not the only one fighting a losing battle.

We can see the point that some rovers fans dont want to give the £1 thinking FC will take the credit of the donation.

Which is worse though, taking £1 and giving it to charity or taking £7 and spending it behind the bar in Tavern?
