KC Stadium at 10: 'People were dubious, but it has paid off big-style for Hull'

“Not sure that this terracing idea will significantly increase capacity.
It will not be like the good old days .
The pictures and examples i have sen from Germany seem to take a lot of room and are similar to stading in your current seat.
Still access along a row and can not move up or down between rows.
Will probably add 2000 at the most as only one stand or part of one stand will be converted.”

“hullfc,are perfectly entitled to claim established 1865,and still trade as hullfc,established 1865.lets face it,how many well known big companies have been bought out,and still trade under their original name,such as nestles,cadburys and rowntrees.i have just made all my funeral arrangements,with a very old undertaking firm,but i didn`t know they where part of a nation wide conglomerate,untill the paper work came through.obviously the local firm had been taken over,but where still trading under the original name as the founders.”

“kempton,maybe the council had more vision about the kc than even you eh,average of 18000 this season try again,maybe they just didnt want to waste the peoples money, on such unreliability dont you think dumbell.”

“kempton,just to correct your incorrect statement that the derby has never never sold out,there was a saying once in hull,(WILL THE LAST ONE OUT TURN OFF THE LIGHTS),that sold out for that derby”

“KEMPTON,so whos the idiot now you thick tw-t”

“and the name of the other side involved in that attendance of 53,000 was rotherham utd their fellow promotion rivals who headed the table at the time,raich carter was hulls player manager idiot”

“this KEMPTON idiot the clown,just happens that hullfc were a viable club when the so called merger took place,fact is hullfcs crowds in the time that lloyd was in charge were in fact more than the 3000 you untruthfully state ive always called you a liar and i know that to be fact even under your new phony guise theres no mistaking an idiot called bridrobin,harbourlites,to whom it seems lying is so habitual its frightening,hullfc were still called hullfc before and after the merger so called because of the arrival of the gateshead contingent,the club gateshead did not fold but they continued under under a different ownership that same season,they closed down the following season,citing lack of support as their reason for doing so,regarding the owners of hullfc they took over at hull still trading under the name of the former club,simply because that was the name they were trading under dipstick,you dont possibly think that they could take over at hullfc under any other name do you,your definetly a clown of the highest order your stupid,whos bothered what the name of the board was the club still had its identity HULLFC Est 1865,their was a time that you used to state that hullfc were heavily in debt and the boulrvard was sold off to pay those debts,the fact was that the boulevard was owned by lloyd who offered it to the council at a price of £750,000,stating that if the council bought the ground at that price,then when he departed he would pay off hullfcs debts leaving them as a viable club,waiting for any willing investor to walk in and take it over,and that was the reason roy waudby offered to step back in and take over but only if they were voted into the lower league the northern ford also habited by a very poor hkr who in turn voted against the admittance to that league,that was the reason that roy waudby pulled out of the offer to take over again at hullfc in superleague,that and his ill health at that time,im no idiot you stupid phoney,who will you be posting has tomorrow you idiot,then he cites that hullfc only get the crowds when playing the top sides.then stupidly quotes that hull city on a level playing field in the premier league filled the ground every match,we all know that you idiot they had 19000 passholders before a match in that division ever took place you idiot,didnt you know that fact stupid,just another fact idiot hullcitys highest ever attendance at boothferry park was 55,000 against MAN UTD in a cup match in which they were beaten 1-0,the highest ever league attendance at that venue was 53,000 not the 37000 that you incorrectly state,the 53000 attendace was on a boxing day ans is still a record for a 3rd div att,the score was in hull citys favour being 5-3 after willie retook two penalties and scored both only on the second attempt.on another misinformed statement about the biggest derby in the world has not sold out once,then if your prepared to put your money were your big gob is (somewhere near your backside )ill bet you that it has now name the amount gobby”

“And for those that don't care whether we have a football or rugby teams?
I suppose at least we get a dodgy market on the car park!”

“Allam is bluffing, he won't and can't take Hull City to Welton. Firstly the planning process would take a couple of years (and he's not guaranteed to get permission) and then another to build a stadium. In gaining planning approval he would need to fund the construction of a new grade seperated junction off the A63 and a bridge/tunnel over/under the rail track, those two alone would cost millions and that's before building the stadium!! Add to that the fact that he would be taking a massive gamble pumping millions into a project over several years on the back of gambling HCAFC stay in the Premiership and you'll see that it will never happen. He got a bloody good deal when he took over HCAFC. He bought out the clubs debt not with a lump sum but on the back of his assets. He says it costs him £60K a week to keep the club running (paying off debts and wages) so when our two highly paid players Olly and McShane go at the end of the season he will have a football club either in the premiership or looking to be in it the next season for £10K a week. We go up and he will be quids in!! Allam wants the stadium for nothing to then mortgage it to fund a casino and hotel (forget the sport facilities that's a smoke screen) and that's why he won't but plans on the table for all to see. HCAFC are going nowhere and I'm glad becuase the last time someone owned the ground we ended up being locked out!!!!”

“I see Dextertexter is confiming his reputation amongst posters as an idiot.
He goes on about crowds. It was not that long ago that the HDM didn't publish Rovers crowds, which were under 2,000. FC in the top flight were getting 3,000. Which was why they were taken over by Gateshead. And they were taken over by Gateshead, registered as "Gateshead trading as Hull FC". Before being taken over again.
To get back to crowds, FC's highest ever average was 14,000, set at the KC. City's had 16,000 in Division 4 at the KC, although their highest ever was at BP, 37,000 in the old Division 3.
Yet this clown reckons people only come to see the opposition. Of course opposition doesn't make any difference to FC's gates, does it? They get as many for the visits of Catalan and London as they do for Leeds, Wigan and St Helen's, don't they?
The fact is that on a level playing field, the top flight, City sold out their tickets for every game.
Whereas the biggest derby in the universe and everywhere else has never sold out once. The last couple of derbies have seen the KC have a third of the seats empty, the crowds nearly 2,000 less than City's average in a season of struggle and less than all but one season in the KC.
I would suggest Dexter goes away and reserves his rubbish for rugby related subjects.”
