Home end for me.

On principle alone I won't be paying that price. I don't mind paying the going rate, but I'm not paying a higher price
just because their club are giving the home fans a special offer!

Quote: east hull FC fan "So am I to assume you won't be travelling in your usual thousands then?'"


Tbh its probably the lack of away support that has caused the price to go up. Theres only Rovers and Leeds who bring more than a few hundred (occasionally the lancashire clubs do if its an important game). Its probably better for Hull to just charge a few quid more rather than try to tempt in away fans who wont come anyway.

Besides im sure the Wigan fans would be welcome in the South (if there is room) and there are some pretty good family deals in the west stand too.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good - sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league - Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate - the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever - Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go - Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know - FIOS:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39110.jpg



Home end or no trip. Simples.

How many did Wigan take last season? How many did Warrington take last season and this season?

Is Adam Pearson still make false claims about prices being no higher than last season for away fans?

Warrington brought a good following last season because they had to win to be league leaders. Wigan last year and Warrington this brought ok followings but nothing outstanding. Besides I'm not saying I agree with the prices, just pointing out that from a purely selfish point of view, it is better for Hull.

As for Pearsons quote, would you like to explain how £23 is more than £23? Maths never was my strong suit and I'm struggling to grasp this one.

£25 to pay on the day which is more than last season.

Yes but theres no reason why anyone has to pay that is there.

As I said earlier if anyone is coming over with kids its £50 for 2 adults and 2 children in the West stand. If you're not that bothered about sitting with your own fans you can save yourself£24.

So pay £23 in advance and give some money to your club. Simples

That's great for people who have kids but I don't.

Most will do but point is that the price to pay on the day has gone up £2.00 despite Pearson saying prices are no higher than last season.*

[size*Paying on the day must be his idea of small print.[/size

Quote: ABP' "Is travelling in thousands required to be charged reasonable & honest admission prices?

Leeds and Huddersfield didn't bring ''thousands'' this year yet they were charged reasonable prices.'"

You see, your problem is that your seeing the difference in price and not grasping why.
The fact is that there's no change in price unless you pay on the day, and when your club receive 10% on tickets purchased beforehand I don't see why you would?
The difference in price in the south stand is a direct reaction to the fact that our gates are down 2,000 due to people becoming disillusioned by the Hetherington/Agar effect. The tickets have been discounted by Pearson to entice those fans back. That's it.

In that case, why is the same price to sit in the East stand unreserved and just a pound dearer to sit in reserved seats in either of the side stands?

You can't deny that the admission prices in the North stand are unreasonable regardless of excuses.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg

But how much was an advance ticket last year?

Here's a clue it was LESS than £23.
The advance ticket price for concessions has been increased by almost 20% on last season.

It was £22 last season for away fans at Hull - somebody put a picture of their ticket up as proof on the thread when Warrington fans were complaining. HTH.

I believe that student price has increased by £6 to £18 and concessions (including pensioners Rogues) has increased by £3.

Can you now explain how this is the same cost as last season?

No problem with the discount for home fans and don't expect the same for away fans however the only part of the stadium where prices have increased from last season is for away fans. That to me is the issue.
