And staggeringly, the stand will be half empty, as usual.

To be fair that is a bit unfair. Its about what is fair and reasonable and some people miht not think its right or actually just may be not be in a position to fork out another £10 to support this event

Its a bit unfair to describe people as tight, the club need to ENcourage fans rather than DIScourage them at the end of the day

Will putting the price up £10 ENcourage them. I suspect the majority view would be no

I dont believe that to be true but its pretty ironic given the most you ever brought to our place was about 40 in the play offs. That is probably a generous estimate as well.

Since you don't tell us, I'll have to assume that "our place" is Knowsley Road. If so, I was one of the "40" and your estimate is far from generous. Get your basic facts right before you post on here again please.

Quote: Dave Lister "I personally think that the RFL should remove this game from the statistics, it is a fiddle, pure and simple, not even a manipulation.'" Faire enough. Over here the NRL do it with their "double headers". They are also known to inflate their attendance figures anyway. www.smh.com.au/news/lhqnews/ball ... 17589.html

I would say 400 easily...But this is the Saints calculator....you know, the one they use when getting under the cap

As a season ticket holder i have already paid for my RL seat and i'm getting to see a Union game which would have cost me £25 for free !!!

I am being rewarded for my loyalty to the club - i can't see this as a negative in any way.

I'm going to Bradford tonight and if it is raining i will probably get a seat in the stands and will be looking at paying £25 for the privelidge. Odsal is not a patch on The Stoop for facilities, but that does not change the price of the seat. I fully agree with everything markrammond has said.

How can they do that? If RU fans decide to stay and watch to see if they like league who would not have normally come would that count? If union fans stay for 10 minutes and leave due to not liking the product does that count? How can you possibly calculate any stats from the day?

As a season ticket holder this issue doesn't affect me, but that's exactly what most non-ST holders will do; except they won't bother commenting about it on here, their support will just be lost, for this game and possibly further games as a result. It looks like there will be no pay on the day tickets available, even to people willing to pay £25. And as usual the "elite hard core" supporters on here just look down and sneer at anyone who refuses to blindly pay whatever they're asked. As if the club can afford to lose any more support.

I can't believe people are still missing the point so badly. Prince of Denmark spot on as usual.

Just out of interest, have seats for the Union game been kept back for League ST holders? I assume they must have been, or else the ground could be over capacity?

League Season Ticket holders (X) have been allocated seats in the South Stand. They just have to be claimed. Therefore there are X number of seats accounted for.

Our STHs had to exchange the relevant voucher for a match ticket in advance. The email I received from the club is quoted verbatim below"Saturday 10th April sees Harlequins RL take on St Helens; KO 6pm in the Super League. Harlequins RU have also now re-arranged their match against Leeds Carnegie and so the day is now a very exciting ‘Rugby United’ double header and is an excellent example of how both Clubs are working in partnership. The day kicks off at 2pm and your Bronze Season Ticket is valid for both matches.

However there are a few changes to the seating arrangements for the two matches
· You will be able to sit in any of the stands but not in the middle three blocks of the LV

I couldn't be bothered with doing that, so can I just rock up? Sounds like the South Stand will be available for people like me then?

I was told that RL Season ticket holders could only get seats in the South Stand for the first match.
