Who you trying to give them to and why did no one take them?
Every time I've had a spare ticket I could give em away three times over

apart from the end of season slump which started in may,this is down too money and the cost of living.as some on here know i live on a narrowboat at aspley and my cost of living is a lot lower than many.on saying that i'm also on a low wage and if i lived in a house i would also struggle to have a season ticket,i know people who never renewed because of this
as for the pondlife on the comments page on the examinar site,come May the can slide back under their stones for a few months

you and me both

the comment on there sums it up perfectly for me,about how he announced the season tickets were doubling in price,as the bulls were putting the cleaners through us in yet another awful showing.
a lot of fans already disillusioned with the club because of the on field failings will have decided there and then that that was them done.the fact that we are in a double-dip recession certainly isn't going to attract floating fans at £24 a go!
im not wanting to have a go at ken but what did he really expect? fans frustrated and fed up of the side getting hammered every week,the situation where our coach and captain had announced they were off somewhere else,he then comes out and says ,your season ticket will double in price next year!

Qed. I said it last season and ill say it again, Nathan Brown screwed us good and proper & should have gone after Magic Weekend.

That said, while season ticket sales were naturally down I think the major problem this season so far can be split between the godawful weather and the rubbish Sky scheduling we have been lumbered with

Lots of good points on reasons why, and food for thought for Ken and his marketing/finance teams.

Clearly there are some people who feel aggrieved about the stadium and there's not alot we can do to change that.

The match day prices are steep for the product I know I'd have to pick and choose which games I attended if I didn't have a season ticket, there's many people who do not have kids or kids under 12 which help to make it more of a family day out.

I totally disagree with Brearley on 'winning something' has little effect, it does and sustained winners generally have more fans, evidenced throughout sport in many countries.

I think the pricing has got him backed into a corner as he can't reduce the matchday price often to help market the matches as this will alienate the season ticket holders who will then think twice the following year, about its true value.

Then again he has difficulties attracting fans at the matchday price set.

Tricky position to be in unless he can come up with something that will bridge the gap for both sets of attendee.

do you think if we won the challenge cup at wembley vs warrington we would be averaging 10k now???

this giants side is the most successfull side since the team of all talents and for the last few years have been up there in the play offs..

You not got a ST this year meast?

I might be in a minority but I'd be fine if they dropped match day prices for certain games - if it puts bums on seats

Take the Bulls v Leeds derbies, they got massive crowds on the back of massive publicity, super cheap tickets and more importantly aggressive marketing - like actually going into local workplaces and direct selling...

Say in the buildup to the home game v Leeds or Saints having the marketing team (academy squad, fringe players etc) going into each shop & office inside the ring road to offer tickets for a fiver or tenner or set up a stall in Kingsgate to sell them at cut down price to passing shoppers

Then all we need is the team not to mess up like they usually do in these situations lol

Then again, this might be the times that we are limited due to resources :/



Fwiw if we'd have won at Wembley I am sure we'd be on the 10k mark now.

i think the major thing is prices, £24 to watch the big games yes ok can put up with that but to watch games like london widnes salford they should be lowered as there not plum matches and in recent years have just been walk overs

Yes, if we had have won at Wembley we would have avegered 10,000 - we were regularly getting 8,000 + and the cup win would have done it i think.

I hope that the players are using the lower crowds as a source of motivation instead of letting it drain their enthusiasm. A bit of an up yours for the folk that have decided that they're not bothering as they think we'll fade after Easter.

It really is a pivotal time of year. I reckon if we maintain the form, keep winning and the sun comes out we may well see the numbers go up and perhaps the noise levels increase. I'm sure a small piece of all of us is waiting for us to start drifting!

If any spare tickets are knocking about, I know three season ticket holders from last season that can`t afford it this season and havn`t been to a match this season because they can`t afford it.
They would like to go but finances will not stretch.

I will bear that in mind if it happens again- it's been the day of the game when I've known there's a spare though.
