Thanks for your kind words, as they say it takes one to know one!! So you obviously feel that people who don't live in Hull should go and support some other team. I've supported this team since the 1950's and I don't live in Hull but make the effort to travel. Why can't people travel the relatively short distance to either Brantingham or Bishop Burton to support the reserves. Its not as though there are going to be thousands of them.

Don't really get what your all arguing about! Surely county road what Pearson owns would be the absolute obvious choice! Or am I missing something

I'm sure it would be worth erecting a small stand , and parking wouldn't be a massive issue, what sort of crowds you expecting. And that sites plenty of unused space , if they wanted to stick some Tarmac down for extra parking . It's a no brainier , be amazed if an a team played anywhere else

There needs to be some sort of establishment where hospitality can be supplied in reasonable surroundings that doesn’t cost the earth. That’s why Brantingham was chosen last time around but the club got stung a few times during the former ill fated system, when teams like Wigan concelled at short notice. Ionians had already organised and prepared.

I would imagine that for the first year at least, until we see if the reserves league takes off properly, we will see Rovers and Hull field a joint side under the COHA banner.

We could use top age under 19 players, allowing more first year academy players to get minutes in the under 19s, and supplement them with lads who have graduated from the Academy over the last couple of years. Listen, Cator etc.

Established first team players could be put into the side whenever either club wished and trialists used if either club has a player they want to take a look at.

Facilities are already in place, and paid for up at Bishop Burton and the COHA staff can be used so I don't think cost would be an issue at all. It would barely either club a penny to set up and run. That would be key I think.
