Oh and plus, the 1,500 (est.) soaked Hull KR fans were loud all night, excellent support (as they always give at Headingley).

I agree 100%. Since we started winning trophies, most of our fans are not interested in creating an atmosphere, just in being entertained and expecting to win every game. There's only a handful of lads who start chants anymore (I'm sure we all know who that is), at home or away games. The Saints game (as the Southstand will not turn up and expect us to win by 30 points) will create a good atmosphere, as the game in the cup did earlier in the year.
I'm no really criticising anyone, you pay your money to turn up, sing if you like, don't if you don't, but the Headingley atmosphere has degenerated badly since 2004 time.

The lads that actually want to start up a few chants have got no chance because of the band.

And at away games nobody is interested, it's fighting a losing battle.

Anytime you fancy answering it ta.

because i'd rather watch a decent FULL game of rugby between two very good teams than have to walk out half way through a game at the KC again. It was a better way to spend my night. So...does that answer your question?

I was referring to people's reluctance to get behind the team. I know of people who try constantly to start a few songs to get behind the team only to be met with a tumbleweed by most of the away end.
