| Quote Digger_the_Dog="Digger_the_Dog"[i[uI have no anti-Rovers bitterness[/u[/i. I just do not want more money spent on an area that has had Preston Road re-developed and has a new School in progress.
If just one Rovers fan could give a good reason why a new Stadium should be built in East Hull then I will consider changing my view but not a single reason has emerged.
The Boulevard work will benefit the whole area, Hull are also contributing to cost.
What would a new Stadium do for the area in East Hull some building work at CP wouldn't? What is being spent at the Boulevard could be spent building community beneficial projects at CP but no, Rovers fans don't want that because all they really give a stuff about is a new stadium for Rovers, they don't care what facilities are included for the local kids or jobless because it is all about the Rugby Stadium.
And if the stuff the players are telling people is true Rovers wont be needing any extra seats in CP for a while yet as results wont be picking up

| Quote Mild Rover="Mild Rover"Good post. The only thing I'd point out, and it reflects my circumstances and preferences, is how difficult it is for me to get a ticket for covered seating (ie the West stand). It's pretty much impossible. I'd love to see progress on the North Stand. With the population getting older, good covered seating should remain a priority for the club.
Rovers must be among the SL clubs whose attendance is closest to capacity, despite some of the facilities being less than ideal. The case for expansion and improvement is pretty compelling, IMO.'"
I agree with that. I think the covered seating is the main issue - hopefully the north stand development will eventually provide this along with the extra facilities both corporate and community, the club needs.
I suppose the argument for a new ground, is that we already need to build two new stands, extend another and probably replace the west eventually. You're not far off a full new build there, but still with dated features like a lack of corporate boxes, posts supporting the roofs etc.
I agree with Digger's sentiment, that facilities are already available to the community and do not justify a new stadium, but would bringing CP up to scratch be [ithat[/i much cheaper cost-wise in the long term?
Perhaps we missed an opportunity of being involved with the freedom centre and the new academy. |

=#0000FF[tongue in cheek mode Write a letter to Hull City Council. I'm sure they will build a new stadium just for your needs. After all you do pay your taxes (I assume). =#0000FF[/tongue in cheek mode |

If the next phase of the campaign was to get those 10k to vote non-Lib Dem, you might see a response from Minns. |

Don't forget it was just a couple of Rovers fans raising the petition, not an organization. I think Julie and Mike deserve credit for taking the initiative, and getting the local MP onside was a coup. |

While I admired their efforts, I was sceptical about about how much could be achieved. 10,000 signatures and good media coverage has proved me wrong - remember this was an independent fans group with, I assume, a budget that didn't extend much beyond paper and pens. Door knocking on east Hull's 50,000 (at a guess) households would be a massive undertaking. |

Thing is, they don't have to wait for you to come to the door - and they get paid! |
