| Quote: Briali1 "The reason we stop 15 minutes before kick off is due to the fact we are all volunteers who have purchased season tickets and whilst we want to help the club as much as possible at the end of the day we are volunteers and our main reason for being there is to watch the game.'"
selfish.....purely selfish
Seriously though, although the volunteers group do this at the moment, I have to say it is not their job. £,000's of £'s are going to be raised this year by the group and to be fair, they seem like the most pro-active people at the club.
I would really like to see every ticket purchaser "on the day" given an online voucher to be redeemed for 1 further future online purchase. That way, we know they have attended 2 games and can ask them for feedback for a further 3rd game voucher...........etc etc etc....
We are told (and I understand) that this is year 1, but we need action now and not just from the volunteers.

There are only a few big games, it isn't hard to schedule Wigan, Leeds and Saints so they don't clash with a big event and not on Sky.

Well apart from the clashes that have already been pointed out, and those that argue about football/speedway and other clashes.
In London once the regular football season is finished there are to come 10 days of ashes cricket and two England games, add to that F1 (on tv). 20/20 World Cup (on tv), the rest fo the ashes (on tv). All the myriad 'smaller' sports. Not to mention the gigs that will take place in the capital over the summer..... I don't think it is that easy to 'not' clash with a big event either in London or on TV.

I agree. This was done the last time we were at the Stoop. Each game you attended you went to the kiosk and got a card stamped, after so many stamps you were given a free T shirt and other such freebies. It was good for new supporters buying tickets as after a few weeks they could sport the club colours at no extra cost to themselves. Many of these people came back the next season as a season ticket holder. Does anyone else on here remember the rugby ball kiosk inside Gate 2 where the event took place. Wonder where that kiosk ended up, in a shed or on the tip

TBH, with a trip to Edinburgh, France and still one to South Wales to contend with, plus the possibility of Wembley for the teams still in it, I am suprised that more away fans are choosing which ones to go to, I certainly cannot afford all of them and have chosen accordingly.
Your regular travellers who do it every other week to the North deserve applause.

Like every all seater stadium in the country the tickets will have had a seat number printed on them, it isn't hard to sit in the right seat.

Readings over-rated.

| I was sitting not a million miles from these gentlemen and thought they were quite intimidating to the two older members (Season ticket holders) of our fan base. Why do away fans think they can sit in a stand (Gold) designated for season ticket holder only.
I would also add that the steward should also know that it was a Gold ticket area only!

| Quote: gutterfax "To be fair, there were about 30 of them who were vocal pretty much all the time. The remainder joined in when they got on top.
FWI, I thought we were the far better side in the first half, but weren't ruthless enough. Second hald, we just didn't turn up. I got that bored that I started counting the fans in the North Stamd and there were about 550...with another 100 or so scattered around the North end of the East....so good turn out from the HKR masssive.
As has been alluded to here a few times, it is getting harder for away teams to bring down many fans as they are now faced with Catalans, Celtic and Quins as potential bank breakers. Still, if they brought 750, then that means we had 2,750 "home fans" at the game...let's hopewe can get these people back'"
I felt we should have been comfortably ahead by half time; as it was we only led due to Dobson's inaccurate kicking. I thought HKR supporters were pretty quiet in the first half though - it was only when it was obvious their team was going to win they got noisy.
