In all seriousness, though. It'll probably be branded in-line with the highest bidder as part of a sponsorship agreement.

Yeah, the stand name. Neil will agree that "The Neil Hudgell stand" sounds pants, The Colin Hutton Stand has a better ring to it.


Yeah , lets name it after the man who shafted the club by making the most inept decision in HKRs history and not the man who has dragged us out of the wilderness caused by Hutton and pals...

Nobody suggested we call it Barry Lilley?

If you mean the stand name then It sounds a very fitting gesture to a man who has done so much for Hull Kingston Rovers. Without Neil Hudgell we would have no Super League rugby. To me The Neil Hudgell stand sounds GREAT.

got to go with this why not have a poll and send the result to rovers :CLAP:

Lets name it after the company that are prepared to pay most for the naming rights. We can name the bars etc after Rovers legends.

The man who made the decision to sell Hoderness Road for chicken feed and move to the outpost that is Poorhouse Lane and pay massively over the odds for a sub-standard , old design ground , plunging us hugely into debt in the process, a decision that has haunted Rovers since the day it was made...that would be Mr Hutton

Barry Lilley , inept in his own particular way , was chairman much later when we are already bottoming out, his only decision of note , which backfired nicely , was to block Hull from relegating themselves and thereby precipitating the merger with Gateshead, thankfully his own wishes to merge with Hull were thrown out by shareholders...

Perhaps if you had supported us pre Super League or took the time to look into the clubs history you would know what i was talking about...

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Frederick Douglas

He's got a nice smile and a twinkle in his eye though has Mr. Hutton.

Lovely manners too.

A little bitter there, Larry, surprised you even support the club any more, what with him being a current club president and all.

My first Rovers game was at Wembley in 1997, I was 14 and didn't really want to go, a whole ten years before Superleague.

Oh, and by the way, I just had a little look at the history and it doesn't mention Colin Hutton doing any of the above, I'm not saying it didn't happen but just pointing out that we're not all as old as the houses and there appears to be no evidence other than hearsay.
