Does it matter? There isn't much crossover fanbase is there?

There would be some though.

This seems surprising, but presumably couldn't happen unless Hull plod were happy with it?

I doubt you're talking about triple digits, perhaps less than 100 would go to both.

Train station is gonna be busy, glad I aren't working tomorrow night and having to commute home.

I know one bloke who has season tickets for all three clubs (including City), yes, but I can confidently say he is rarer than rocking horse sh##

The only issue to me is the TV clash that results. Hull’s big enough to have two teams at home.

His wife is the one who bought the season tickets?

It will be interesting to see what a combined attendance figure will be. Looking at over 20,000 easily.

Happens alot more than people think over the seasons.

13,376 at the MKM so comfortably over 20,000 I would imagine.

[Gooleboy]

A bit of a contrast results wise.

You can tell that having them both play in the same city on the same night really hurt their respective attendances.

Do you really believe  rival fans in Hull would have gone to the others game if their team  hadn't been playing? I don't for a minute.

Rovers will of been just over 11,000 so over 24,000 people watching rugby in Hull last night, not too shabby!

Yeah for sure, you can tell those are my thoughts from the first reply in this thread.
