| Quote Durham Giant="Durham Giant"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.'"
Compare it with hull kr and saints charging 22quid to stand i think it is good value

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.

If the travel was tied in with buying the away ticket from Hull there might be extra income to offset the cost as well.

I'm sure it would be but with the SMC deal and the fact we make nothing from food and drink sales i can't see it being a money spinner plus I think it is a bit of a slap in the face for our long suffering fans that we'll subsidise opposition fans to come here but not do anything for our travelling support. When you take into account cost of buses they'll have to significantly increase the number of away fans to make it more financially lucrative than doing nothing

sorry I was agreeing with you re the club putting buses in for our fans going to away games. Insist that anyone on the subsidised coaches buy a ticket from the club as part of the deal and you have some money coming back in to the club to pay for it.

Sorry, misunderstood (not used to you agreeing with me  ). It would be great if they did it once a season to try and encourage a large amount of fans - problem is we generally have large amounts at most away grounds anyway. Worked well for the likes of wire in the past. Ticket and transport for £30 or something

Sounds like a good idea, espescially during the long run of away games this season (Leeds or Widnes away, say). Those who regularly travel away can save money and others could be encouraged to go.
Anyway, the club should still be applauded for the plans outlined today.

I know this is probably old ground Jake and my memory's not the best but I thought we got a % of money from food and drink at the kc . How do you know we don't get any money mate ?

| Mr Allam was quoted in the HDM, saying.... Quote (The SMC) subsidises the catering and beer sales at each match, making a loss of £70,000 last season.'" so I doubt we get much, if anything.
