Just cast your mind back to last season. As a female season ticket holder i lost out on more then one occasion. Our chairman hosting a couple of ladies day free entry etc. I didn't get a refund.
I just wish that all Championship Clubs would get-together (like the Sooper Doooooooooper Clubs) and agree a strategy that would apply to every club on ticketing! Then everyone would know exactly what was on offer and for what price.
Remember when Swinton played at Gigg Lane and they charged their home supporters less than the away supporters?
Sorry, I omitted 'Northern', who seem to be a law unto themselves - sending me emails offering entry at £10, and I'm not 65 yet! That said, if Northern was one of the last two clubs in the game, I WOULD NEVER GIVE THEM MY SUPPORT - even if it was FREE!
I agree with westburn warrior and was also under the impression the challenge cup game was part of the package. My view is the club has made an oversight in their marketing. But we need to put it into perspective that our season ticket at 120 was just about the cheapest in the league. I'm committed to supporting keighley and would happily pay a tenner which will go to support both us and equally a local amateur club.
Well Gary emailed me to let me know it was rfl rules which prevented them from allowing 'free entry' to season ticket holders for the challenge cup game, and also said that he was going to speak with the other directors to see if they could come up with a solution to the problem caused by the original offer advertised. Let see what they come back with.
Mr hicks, surely it's my decision on whether I buy a season ticket or not. I've supported the club for 20 years so you coming out spouting rubbish like we're not true supporters is frankly insulting. I was one of the first few to buy the current season ticket as I want the club to do well, but bought it on the provision I was getting 12 games for £120. I can't make all games so losing games doesn't help me.
On a different note, there is nothing in the keighley news this week stating that it's a paying game, and I'm pretty sure there will season ticket holders that will be turning up expecting to get in free, as they don't come on the fans site or got the text. I personally know of 2 people who I had to inform.
