| The truth is, I would say Rovers took between 2000 - 3000 to Odsal, not that it really matters, some teams travel better than others. I think the Bradford Chairman had it about right at 2500.
As much as Rovers fans exaggerate the figures to be more positive, the same could be said about some of the 'incidents' at away games that are reported on these forums.
The incident at Odsal first broke on the forums as "Rovers fans have smashed up a bar at the ground and a number of those involved were removed from the ground".
Turns out the truth was, and still out of order, that when the staff attempted to close the bar someone threw a plastic pint pot and a plastic bottle and sounded off some abuse.
To suggest that Rovers have a 250 strong mob intent on causing trouble at games is way off the mark. Here's the boring bit but every club has idiots, the bigger away following then I guess it is reasonable to think more 'idiots' will attach themselves to the support, but 250?

No no no... the idea is to inflate the number.

So let me get this right, the crowd that day was 90050 plus a few or was it 140000?
Wembley's capacity was around 100000, and I don't imagine that FC took only around 10000.

maybe that newspaper report from the time is wrong then ??'"
How is the Huddersfield crowd that day worked out? Tickets actually sold by the club? People in Huddersfield colours? People who travelled from Huddersfield? A count of the people who cheered the first try?

| Anyway we should stop being so hard on the HKR fans particularly after the article in the Guardian on Wednesday.
' why Robins won't inherit the world'
it goes on to explain that ' would a robin or a wombat rather be human? no, they would think (if they were capable of thinking).
It is clear that they cannot count and cannot think. we really should leave them alone. In their world the Robin is king.
