[quote="The Reason":3e09qe5x]Hi Andy
The Rugby Football League are in the process of reviewing the video that you are referring to. We do not condone behaviour of this nature and have contacted the player’s employer, Hull F.C., who have confirmed that they are dealing with the incident under their club rules.

Seems a bit strange to bring this in when they persevered with high pricing which rose if you didn't pre buy. It will be hard to get those fans back.

To reconcile respect with practicality, what is the optimum speed for a hearse?:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_7384.png |

| Well 1000 at £18 is better than 750 at £20 so this looks a good plan. Plus there's potential for food and drink sales.
If it works the argument would be to reduce for home fans too to try and fill the empty spaces.  |

I think it's a great idea and I hope that it does indeed encourage more away fans to visit the KC.

The clubs should get together and agree Away ticket prices should be the same across the board
£20 quid max

Good idea by the club to encourage more away fans to travel to the KC?
Don't have a problem with this personally.'"
Sounds good to me. Good on the club for thinking along these lines.
More away fans is good for the coffers and will improve the atmosphere at games. |

I think you will always have a problem getting away fans to travel if the match is televised.
I do think this is a good idea and maybe should be tried

If it doesn't lose the club money and stands to gain money, I cant see the harm in it.
I think Thursday and Friday night games will always limit away fans to an extent, but well worth a go.
Well Done Hull FC, plenty of positivity surrounding the club at the moment

First there was wisdom
Then there was knowledge
Now there is only information:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_17490.jpg |

In which case there may be some unhappy passholders in view of AP's past comments.

Possibly because they realise they have their ticketing strategy wrong at Hull. They are one of the most expensive grounds for AWAY fans to visit. I think only Leeds are more expensive for seats.
I agree with PhilB there should be a better ticketing strategy across RL particularly at televised games. If you want to sell the sport as being exciting and TGG and the stadium is half empty it looks bad.

I'm all for reducing ticket prices to encourage away supporters but subsidised coaches? WTF What about subsiding coaches for our own supporters to the odd away game as a gesture of goodwill?

agree, unless we'd created a reciprocal deal with a partner club then it appears that AP knows we'll continue to travel and he doesn't get anything out of it, so sod us, and guse money for away fans. |

Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's down in the dark will be brought to the light:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_67329.jpg |
