The Golf Stand isn't 20 miles away from the pitch, that's the South Stand and only Hull FC fans get put in there £20 is a lot, but well worth it for the top class Rugby League on show

We got the stand 20 miles away from the pitch. (£5)

Yeah but £20? seriously? to sit in some temporary seating 20 mile away from the pitch? no thank you.

If you go to support your team it shouldn't matter, I'd pay it. Been to far worse grounds, some of them in the Super League.

I'm sure opposing fans get confused with the South Stand and the North Stand.

Most cas supporters will never forget the south stand and the 18th hole north stand isn't getting my money.

Don't we charge £21 to sit down?

And there in lies the truth of the supporters that are good travellers and those that are not.

We at Hul K.R NEVER let the ground, stand, food, hospitality come into the reckoning, we are there to support Hull K.R and if that be from a cr@p hole of a stand like at Saints, Cas or Wakey the so be it, the price too is totally irrelevant, because if its twenty at say... Wigan and twenty two at Wakey thats not important enough to have us miss our team.

Ask yourself a question, if the importance you place on facilities is as pressing as you are making out, how the hell do you go to home games?

We have had two and a half yean the S.L and have improved our ground beyond belief, what was the last thing your club did to improve your place? for home or away supporters?

I'm sure you speak on behalf of all of your 100'000 supporters who never miss a game.

The difference is at our ground, it's got atmosphere, it's not segregated and the fans can actually see the match from wherever they stand.

You've obviously not done enough if it's turning people away. And we've got plans for a new stadium. What about you?

We do not take 1000,000 fans away. Or are you again speaking bull? I think so.

As far as atmosphere is concerned we have no worries, yes our south stand is further away then many stands but you can see just fine.

We have never said we want a new ground, simply upgrade what we have, though im sure youwhite elephant will be talked about for many more years.

Okay, i'm going to try and reply to that. Learn how to use quotes.

Obviously you've not heard of the Hull KR calculator joke then?

And that is my point. Money is tight for many people at the moment and they're having to pick and choose the games they go to. Why spend money to sit in a stand where you're far away from the game with a limited view, when you can spend the same and be close to the action? To say this, "And there in lies the truth of the supporters that are good travellers and those that are not." is very harsh.

Well what have you upgraded for the away fans if people are complaining about the away end?
