only option of holiday I had was 1st or last week of school holidays so missed Saturday's game. Had hoped game may have been moved to Friday night. Not missed many this year despite having to take holiday for some Thursday & away Friday games. Will be there for rest of games.

It's so easy to laugh! It's so easy to hate! It takes strength to be gentle and kind!!:

What's the point of coughing up for season tickets any more if the club are going to keep on offering promotional special deals every season? Can't blame the club for trying to attract people but there's no incentive for long term fans to buy ST's any more particularly if you have to miss the odd home game!
It might be argued that you get a percentage off a new shirt (who buys a new cr@p quality and naff shirt every year?!) or 50% off Magic (cheap tickets widespread anyway!). Priority tickets for Wembley assuming we don't bottle it as usual, maybe? (strange - when we've only a hard core fan base of 4 - 5 thousand at most anyway!).
The only advantage I can see is having a reserved seat. I've enjoyed sitting with the same gang on the front row for years now but if the crowd gets any smaller we'll all have the choice of about 10 seats each anyway!
Still feeling a lot disgruntled & cheesed off but will be there for the final games where and when I can and hoping for the best.

Damned if they do, damned if they don't it seems. The club get blasted on here for not doing enough- yet when they do folk find fault. If doesn't bother me that others can get in for the same price I have all season- or even slightly cheaper if it gets bums on seats.

The season tickets are a thorny issue as they only give value if you get to very game. But for working people and people with families, bearing in mind the school holidays and the fines you can get clash with the SL season now the game is primarily summer based so some people won't buy a season ticket as they can miss up to four games due to holidays and changed fixtures.

For example my son gets married Sat 13th of August and we are staying the Friday night before as well, so had the 'Fev' game been any day but the Sunday I couldn't have gone.

The club should pitch season tickets at a minimum price say £17 per game with a minimum purchase of say 9 matches and anyone who purchases 11 get it at £16 and all 13/14 at £15.

Also they should follow the other 9 super league clubs whose concession age is 60 not 65 or at least introduce a two tier pricing system at 60 and. 65 as many people particulary women still retire early and in every household reduced income means something goes and more leisure time means more things to do that clash with RL with less income to spend.

Not blasting the club - fully appreciate that the club's got to come up with ways of raising interest and getting people to come down.
What happened to inviting all the school kids along? Are the Giants school liaison officers still getting involved? For every class of 30 who come, surely you're going to get few of them coming back with mum, dad, granddad or whoever!
