How does a big money backer impact on ticket prices?
It means nowt when it comes to salary cap and your income is up at our level, same as Wigan £4.5 million
Wigan are miles cheaper than us, their income is comparable, their gates are bigger.
See the stuff on their board, they didnt see a penny from the JJB "shirt sponsorship"

A big money backer can plough cash into the club to fund projects that would otherwise come out of general turnover. They may even directly subsidise ticket prices. It's another income stream, and often a substantial one.
You'd have to take a detailed look at the accounts of both clubs and see where the income was being generated and where the cash was being spent. Unless we're spending large sums on items that don't benefit the club I can't see where the 'rip-off' accusation comes from.
Value for money is another issue, mind...

Go smell the coffee
Also what do Hull pay the ground after 7,500, half of the pass price £16 =£8 a person or half the walk ups £24 = £12.
On 14,000 ave crowd =6,500at £8 each or £12 each , think about that over
13 plus games

Sorry mate but thats bollox.
Spend our money on attending and loads in the clubs shop to make us the only club in the black and what do we get in return? 5 drives and a kick if we're lucky enough to complete our set and the most boring rugby on offer, followed by the same excuses by our clueless coach and then he cant rectify our problems.
Heard a rumour the other day that Agar is married to Kath and Garys daughter. Doubt that's true but there's got to be something he has over our board to be keeping his job when he's as incompetent as he is.

| Both the Hetheringtons' daughters work for Leeds. Looks like it's only Kath and the prospective son-in-law who are banished to East Yorkshire.
Intriguing the rlnumber of staff Leeds have on the payrollrl compared to Hull - their profits aren't that much bigger are they? Wish the Heths would have the same "big club mentality" thinking at Hull as they have at Leeds. When would be the day that Leeds recruited Agar as Head coach?
