What a sad statement that is. So anyone who enjoys watching a game of rugby when there side is not playing can f off?


no, it's just rovers and their fans who can f off.
Hate rovers, hate their fat ugly fans, hate their players, hate their coach, hate their directors, hate their "pride of the east hull slums" mentality.
Always have, always will.

There are some petulant people on this thread.

Some people are fans of Hull first. Some people are fans of the game first. I am of the latter, but do not begrudge the people that put their club interests before the game (it's a hobby after all). I find it quite pathetic that some of the people in the other camp are taking some kind of superiority stance in not going to see their rivals play.

If it was a good deal, I'd go see Rovers play. I love me rugby, I'd have an emotionally attachment to the game (in the opposite way to normal!), the only issue would be price, where I'd stand and who I'd stand with. Doesn't make me any less a Hull fan for doing so.

However, I don't think it would be feasible beyond maybe a discount on the odd game, possibly a ticket discount for season pass holders against the likes of Catalans. Wouldn't be worth doing until the ground update is done as well.

I've said in the past as well that perhaps a KC double header would be a good shout one day. Hull vs Broncos and Rovers vs Catalans could sell the place out if marketed right, as well as generate a decent atmosphere for what is usually a dour affair for both clubs. Seems to work well in Aus, and union over here.

My emotional attachment to the game is not any less because I will not go and willingly watch the side I dislike. I honestly couldn't bare it.

I disagree. If you can't watch a game because your rivals are playing, your emotional attachment to your club is greater than your emotional attachment to the game.

I can't stand Rovers, but not as much as I like watching the game. I'd rather watch them lose than avoid the game altogether!

I watched them at home, and loved it :D

We'll agree to disagree, mate.

Hull fc is without doubt a big club, with some great fans too, (i know a few) but what a set of Bell ends some of you lot are coming across as.

Is it safe to assume then that there are no such people following the Dobbins.
