£20 for a friendly against Halifax reserves? No thanks ...'"
For some reason I thought I'd read that it was main stand only but it appears the terraces are open and it would be £15 on the day or £10 pre match. It's £20 seated on the day. |

It's the other friendlies where only the main stand is open and they've quoted £15 each for those games. I'm gonna assume they're going to run the same £5 extra on the day bit there too, which will mean the cheapest pay on the day option for a friendly will be £20. |

Thanks for everyone's responses. Jesus Christ, you would have thought that the walk up prices would be at least the same as last year. I wonder why they are increasing the prices by £5 :/

I was impressed by the John Kear appointment. The ridiculous gate prices for a friendly have ruined that faith.
Well done.

I honestly do not understand what people are getting so wound up about. To my mind the club are being very sensible;
They want to keep costs down and so aim to open the bare minimum turnstile and have the bare minimum stewards. To do this they need to have a good idea of numbers upfront. To do this they encourage everyone to get a ticket upfront, and make it ludicrously easy to do this by allowing people to buy online and print your own ticket. They are charging £10 for the match, and £15 if you want to sit, I for one dont think that's bad. They are charging more on the day to discourage people from leaving it to the last minute and making numbers unpredictable, makes a lot of sense to me if the club want to control costs.
Before anyone gets started:
1) I am not connected to the club in any way other than being a fan.
2) I am not connected to the RFL in any way
3) I am not Santa Clause

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

I can understand your point, and to be honest I'd agree with most of it, however, I'm far from sure that many of the.. shall we say over 55s? would totally agree with the idea that printing out a ticket from the internet is making anything "ludicrously easy". Whilst accepting what you say about keeping costs down, I still think the easisest and definitely most "ludicrously easy" way of granting admission is to put someone on the gate.
Let's be fair, I somwehow doubt we've suddenly got card reading turnstiles, a la Headingley, so I'm guessing the printed out ticket checking is going to be done manually, by a paid mambers of staff at the gate so, personally, I'd say that putting on an extra couple of staff to deal with 'walk ups' would very likely pay for itself.
