| Nice to hear some of the comments from KR fans - down Cas we know the facilities aren't the best but always try to get a cracking atmosphere
Sadly I won't be in attendance on Friday - I think your ticket prices are a little steep anyway, but I've a hectic weekend unfortunately.
I was at your ground for a world cup game and I think the new stand looks great though

| Are fans really complaining about the price? It's £23 if you book in advance, most tickets are early 20s for away games. If you add in transport, refreshments etc does £1 extra to come here really put you off?

| ^ it doesn't put me off mate, I can't make the game anyway.
I personally think basic ticket prices should be set by the league accross the board. £25 to me is milking another few quid off fans which, although it's only about £2 dearer which is nothing, the principal of it just leaves a bit of a sour taste.
Don't mean that to come across badly, it's not a major beef our tickets in advance are £19 so it's the whole "well why am I paying £4 extra for the same thing"
....mate I'm from Yorkshire it's natural

| i wasn't aiming it at you just in general when fans (I do it myself) complain at prices, Huddersfield last week it was the same £21 in advance and £24 on the day. I guess the reason they justify it is they have to pay someone to be on the turnstyle.
They should have a £20 limit for away fans across the board.
I do think KRs pricing should be a little different for the north stand and try and encourage more people to come especially for the first season but they will see it as its the best stand at the ground and therefore have to put it at the premium end of the spectrum

| I like the new stand, think it looks really good, and I would agree that should be the premium stand to be in.
as I say, I think it will deter some people cause there's travel etc to consider. I don't see the need to nudge a quid on every year, it's not an outrageous increase but it's cheeky and I don't like the principal of it

"I can tell you the atmosphere was extraordinary at Wheldon Road on big days. The ground held around 15,000 people, every one of them close to the action on the field and the noise would be enough to send a rumble through the town" - Malcolm Reilly "Reilly - A Life in Rugby League":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39793.jpg |

| Quote: Fishy "Just seen the prices on their website - £25 if you decide to go on the day for an adult. Have they suddenly signed Billy Slater or something, that's the only way I would pay £25 to get in at HKR. They are the Arsenal of the RL world!'"
Swear filter?

| We were outplayed right across the park tonight so credit to your team.
I think Powell is going to prove to be a very astute appointment. He's had plenty of time in the Championship to develop as a coach and now you're reaping the rewards. I understand he's a Cas lad so all the better for you.

| Thank you Mr Zod.
You are right - DP is a Cas lad. Started at Lock Lane before moving on to Sheffield Eagles in their debut season back in '89 I believe.
