Whilst some people may point to price, a reduction is not often going to move the dial enough - as unfortunate as that may seem.

Lets assume that tickets cost £25 per game, and we average 10,000 per game - that gives us £250k revenue per match

If we drop the price to £20 per game, our 10,000 gives us £200k revenue, so we would need the £5 price reduction to offset that amount.

That's an additional 2,500 fans in the stadium for each game - do you think that many people will be attracted back in for the cost of £5?

There is also the risk involved in lowering the price, we are throwing away revenue for the potential of attracting more fans, rather than just keeping the revenue we already have.

This is why businesses rarely get cheaper without external influences.

Personally, I love the weekend games, it lets me take my kids and means I don't have to worry about leaving work at a decent time during the week.

I think winning is the main thing we can do, I am certainly seeing more KR fans around this last couple of years compared to before

The poor man's bonaire:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32641.jpg



I've had health problems, my parents are unwell, I have a wife and kids and have been hit financially by covid and brexit. I still buy my pass and go to games though so unfortunately no sob story from me guys.

I did stop going to away games a few years back though because we invariably lost

Quote: The Cooke Report "Turnstile receipt for the St game 7974 came through'"


Probably right, are the receipts printing at Stasi Craven Park or is the printer still out of ink?

I've been on the internet and have already got a sense of the fans' passion for the club. They are very fanatical - Peter Gentle 12th September 2011. Money doesn't talk it swears, Obscenity who really cares, Propaganda all is phony. I'm the son and heir of a shyness which is criminally vulgar. Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way. A man who lives in hell can still aspire to heaven.:cartoons/WB17.gif



Quote: Marcus's Bicycle "That includes me today but it was by accident not design. I cycle to every home game from Sutton Park as I did today. I set off late as I like to get there as late as possible to avoid the pre-match entertainment. Tragically half way there I got a flat tyre. Massive dilemma, what do I do? I thought I'll chain my bike up and get the bus in to town and walk from station. Waited no buses so and I thought feck it and "bouled" my bike home and watched it on telly. I think I made the right decision.

The trials and tribulations of supporting Hull
As a fellow cyclist, I feel your pain buddy!!
That tell-tale 'bump-bump-bump' sound as you realise it's puncture time!! Yes, all of we cyclists have been through it, on more than one occasion probably icon_sad.gif icon_sad.gif
I've had a few walks home, 'bouling' the bike along with me, ignoring the smirks from various passers-by icon_smile.gif icon_smile.gif

As you say mate, you didn't miss much by not being there yesterday, and looking at it positively you were home a good deal quicker after the final whistle than you usually would! icon_biggrin.gif icon_biggrin.gif
And you got to miss all the hassle in town yesterday, what with 'the session' around Marina and all the shenanigans caused by the knuckle-draggers getting over-excited in the summer sun.

I've a spare inner-tube if you get stuck next time buddy icon_biggrin.gif icon_biggrin.gif

The amazing thing is that I got a puncture cycling to the last home game as well!! incredibly that's the first one I've ever had cycling to home games and I've done it for years. Fortunately I got it when I was already in town so apart from the ball-ache of "bouling" it back home I got to see the game. Good job I did it was a cracker. It's a bit odd it's almost as if my bike doesn't want me to go to the games!!

As you say luckily I avoided the "patriots" in town. Nothing says "we want our country back" more than smashing shop windows and looting it's contents... All filmed so lets hope they get their day in the dock.

Thanks for the inner tube offer mate but I've just ordered a stack of them from ebay with a puncture resistant tyre as well!!
