| Quote: Mr. Zucchini Head "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.

3076_1671446335.jpg 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.

| The £19 tickets are supposed to be a reward to Hull FC fans who have been watching rubbish for years. Some how I can't see them charging £25 for that end if they were doing well.
I bet when you all arrive in sunny hull and try and get into the home end behind the stick you will be refused and shown where the £25 stand is.

Where you see an increase, I see us bringing the North Stand in line with the rest.

| I have boycotted Hull FC games for years because of the appalling behaviour of a number of their fans and the inability of the stewards to do anything about it.
If the Rugby League had haemorrhoids, they would rub the cream on Hull FC.
Better to stay at home!

I don't know where you're getting your info from but our pricing is:
East stand £23 (unreserved) £24 (Reserved)
South stand £19 (discounted)
West stand £24
North stand £23 (£25 if bought on gate)
