| I'll say it again - why is the "away stand" the most expensive in the stadium despite being on the end?
I'm not travelling to KC because it's far easier, cheaper & safer to watch it in the comfort of my front room.
If the South Stand was pitched at £21/£22 there would still be plenty of threads asking the legitimate question - why is the "away stand" the most expensive in the stadium?
Can a Hull fan actually answer this?

| Quote: Gerrum on side ref "Last year prepay for away fans £22
This year prepay for away fans £23
Increase £1.00'" I think you're missing the point. If the RFL had the same rules regarding respect for away fans as are in place in football, Pearson would not be allowed to price his seats as he has done. Although the pay on the gate price is high in its own right, it would be just about palatable if it the equivalent seats for home fans were the same price.

| Looks like the away supporters are picking up the tab of Pearsons needless litigation.

I don't need to fat boy, I'm merely stating the facts and my own view on the South Stand pricing.
Upshot is it will cost Leeds fans £1.00 more than last season, but please keep on whining.......

Simple...Pre book your ticket before match day and pay £23, then you will find out it's not the most expensive in the stadium.

I see you chose not to copy my opinion on the South Stand (home) pricing
AP may have been naive in the way he has set the pricing policy but he has effectively decided to offer home fans in the South Stand a season long discount of £4.00 per game. Whatever views continue to be expressed or debated nothing is going to change this season. AP is a businessman and I'm sure he will sit down at the end of the year and review every aspect of ticketing, I would expect that next season the pricing gap between North & South to be closer and any discounting to be done by other incentives.

| Quote: Gerrum on side ref "I see you chose not to copy my opinion on the South Stand (home) pricing'" Because it was irrelevant to the matter at hand - the prices are different for equivalent seating, no matter how it is dressed up. I don't care what local difficulties you have - Pearson's (unlikely) benevolence, a "reward" to fans or some wierd thing with your rented stadium agreement - that is of no interest.

| We don't get many away fans anyway, so we might as well charge 'em more
Seriously, it's not something I'm overly chuffed about. But at the same time, very few people sympathised with Hull fans having to pay double everyone else to stand behind the posts at Hull KR. We aren't victimising any individual clubs. They all pay the same.
I can't see it staying that way in the long term. But the prices aren't going to change this season. It's still better value for money than buying a ticket for the Western Terrace.

Or sit in the South Stand, of course.

| Maybe when Hull make this fixture competitive again I might be more interested. As it is they're charging Leeds fans a premium price to watch our annual guaranteed 2 points.

I'm guessing that you have dismissed my argument as you have no reasonable explanation.
..and you are another one totally missing the point and trying to disguise this gross injustice by clouding the argument with irrelevant waffle.
The question has been asked time and time again but as yet NO-ONE has given a satisfactory answer. Why are the away supporters charged £6 more than the home support to watch the same game from the same standard of seating?

You can have the same answer as has been given to everyone. The pricing is not decided by the fans, but by the management. You can ask the question a million times but you will always get the same answer.
