Less. Not much of a financial incentive to get the season ticket - miss a couple of games and I've lost money on it really. Pay on the gate for the 'bigger' games, watch other games on TV, not necessarily Leeds either.

Fans at the rugby games seem to be getting more and more clueless, appealing for everything just because it's their team. A bit like football, really.

I attended two games last season and I don't have any real plans to attend any this year unless it's spur of the moment. Growing up I used to go to matches home and away but these days I'm more than content to watch my team on Sky TV or listen to their matches on the radio. I also watch most rugby league games live on sky.

The joy of attending anything every week for years can easily become joyless and I think spectator sport is like that. I've met people who've attended games on a week by week basis for decades and then just suddenly stopped going for all sorts of reasons.

I'm sure they'll be seasons in the future where I attend games every week like I used to but for now I'm happy with the way things are!

After 3 years with a season ticket, i've not got one this year for 2 main reasons.

1] It basically takes out 2 days where I can work, because I go with grandparents and have to stay the night there, due to public transport, and I need the money
2] Games are less intense and less worth it. If all 13 home games were like the one last night, i'd be there no matter what, but last year the only games that seemed worth my money were against Wire, Leeds & Saints.

I nearly chucked going 2 seasons ago after been a season ticket holder at Hull for over 20 seasons because of the combination of the club been run by Hethrington and coached by Agar and shift work .

In the last two years, I've been to two Wakey games. I catch the amateur game in the South West though so I get my fix.

Have you ever danced with the Devil in the pale moonlight?:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_64854.jpg



As an Hull FC pass holder for many a year, I go to every home game and roughly three-quarters of away games. I go to cup and amateur games if feasible.

I always go to the World Club Challenge and international games, providing it's not versus. France, Wales etc. The Grand Final is also a must every year.

As much as I moan and whine about our game, I am still a rugby league and Hull FC fanatic. Watching and supporting rugby league live is just a given.

In Tony, we trust.:



I now live in London and go to every single game. The problem with Rugby League is moaning fans, always has been and I've been a Warry fan for 50 years. It's the best sport in the world. Just watch the games, don't listen to Hetherington, Stevo Hemmings and co and you'll feel much more content with your lot.

I go less, but then I don't get a £32 season ticket anymore. Also, I've moved to a different city which, although fairly close to Hull, is far enough to make a season pass not worth it.

"I'm sorry, but I would hope that we would beat Cas with a 1 day turnaround." An arrogant Wigan fan a few days before we stuffed them 18-4 at the JJB.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_42181.jpg



On average I've been to roughly 22 games per season for the last 9 years including the 3 years I was at Uni in Manchester. Generally speaking I hate not being at games & struggle to concentrate on anything other then wanting to know how Cas are doing if I'm not at a game. Sometimes work gets in the way but I try shift swapping as much as possible.

Still about the same. Every Wakefield home game (season ticket) and about 45% of away games. Still get to Featherstone a couple of times a season if Wakefield have played Friday night and I'm at a loose end on a Sunday.

Last time I went to the CC final was 2008 and the Magic Weekend 2009.

I voted for less.

There a few reasons for me. I had a ST at Knowsley Road since an early age and when the (correct) move to Langtree Park came it sort of disheartened me especially with the change of home ends from the popular side to behind the sticks and the majority of my family dropping their season tickets. Having gone to most home and away games i guess i sort of grew out of it. I was lucky to have 3 years in Leeds for Uni and i went to watch plenty of Rhinos games that was a nice change. I have had chances to go back to Langtree for a game or two but for me it isnt and will never be like KR.

I dont think the game is any worse off but i do enjoy watching on Sky and listening to the radio. I do still go to the Grand Final and will go to some RLWC games. So i get my fix.

Less often. Used to plan holidays etc. around Broncos home games, but not any more - never been much of an away traveller. Just booked a holiday for this summer without checking our fixtures. now realise that I'll have to miss a home game. (we might win as well, it's against Cas. icon_wink.gif )

Reasons: It's not the game itself, more that I just don't find the Broncos project to bring SL to London as compelling as I used too. Feel more distant from the club. Used to do a bit of volunteering, programme selling mainly. Since the move to The Stoop, the club haven't encouraged volunteers.

Other reason is that I'm getting too bl**dy old to put up with all the travelling, 5 hours minimum for a home game. So I only go if the weather's good and the game is not on Sky.

Have bought a season ticket though, the price for geriatrics is a great bargain.
