Minimum effort too

So all that matters is getting one over on us.

Now who's being pathetic

we should have just put it up £7, then several weeks later make an unconnected donation of roughly 5000 x £7

I think it's worth it really, i give regularly to dovehouse which is my chosen charity, when i go to grounds that go around with a bucket, KC included, i put a couple of quid in for me and a couple for our lass, if i have no change it's a fiver, on this occasion i got my wifes ticket and 2 child swaps so the extra £2 has been wiped anyway.All that needed to be done at kc was charge £21 go around with a bucket (even more for charity) and then fc could have given to charity,and no one would be the wiser.It's the way Fool has gone about it (like the arrogant d1ck he is) that has caused this debate.As i said i think it's worth the £1 as now i will not have any problem with saying "ram it" when they come with the bucket, saved me £4-£5, and i can still laugh in the knowledge that you all complain about CP yet you still come in your sheep like droves even when we CLEARLY charge you lot £7 more than anyone else, ...hope to see you all at the return game at CP in the zebrugger stand, i can see you all now... :DEPRESSED::FEVER: :STUPID::DOH: "LOVE IT"

Not me you wont because I refuse, and guess what, some of your fans think that makes me disloyal to my club. Typical double standards from some fans.

As for the bucket collection, I've taken part in a few and I guarantee a bucket collection would not have raised anywhere near £15k

As an example we did a bucket collection for the Prescott foundation at your home game against Wigan last season. The attendance was over 8000 but the amount raised was about £800 IIRC. A good amount but it follows the accepted pattern that bucket collections tend to average out about 1 in 10 people donating £1.

One final thought for the pathetic moaners on here. Hull FC have not claimed to be "donating" the money they have claimed to be "raising" the money. Which is exactly what they have done. Have a word with yourselves.

I honestly cannot see where the Rovers fans are coming from on this one. Even some of the more sensible posters have completely missed the point and as for boycotting the Richard Horne testimonial, i find that sort of threat totally out of order.

Out of order Gordon. ?

As the reply to Phil B stated .....one can choose to go or not to go.

One could choose to donate this entry fee to a chosen charity or as Mrs Barista pointed out it could go in a pocket, ie Richard Horne's.

Surely you agree in fans choice.
