We (FC) should be pressuring the council, why is it (so far) no City of Culture event has happened at the KC and surrounds, why are the Allams ruining the KC....

Maybe Councillor Webster can help. He was giving it the "over my dead body" chat over Airco on here but then disappeared.

To what level? My perception of the catering at the KCOM is that it's not much different to other stadia - hot drinks, soft drinks, alcohol, pies, snacks. What are the DRAMATIC gaps to, say, Saints or Warrington? Am I missing something?

Indeed the catering very much matches the standards found in stadiums throughout Britain and indeed ones I've visited overseas. Overpriced and something to avoid.

Wish we could get more like the USA and Canada, our stadium catering makes motorway services look gourmet!

Just have food and some drinks/beers before you arrive at the KC. There's no obligation to buy food or drink whilst at the game or hand over any of your hard-earned to Allam.

The turnstile situation is a joke. After their install it was taking up to 20minutes+ queuing last season. The major flaw in their design is that they're outside on the wall, instead of next to the turnstile itself, so per person it takes miles longer than it did. Multiply that up by hundreds/thousands of people and its no wonder it takes ages to get people in.

I want a fair bit of Premier League football, 50-60k attendances and I'm never waiting longer in a queue to get in than 2/3 minutes.

Fans shouldn't have to 'get there early', they should be able to arrive at whatever time they want with an expectation of a small wait. This issue is firmly at the SMC/Allam's door and their crap scanning system, not the fans

But that's essentially the same as other SL offers? I'll check out the offering at Salford and rate the gaps to the KCOM offer later.

10,000 tickets sold with over three weeks still to go and obviously minimal away support. Decent start that.

fans got until 5th feb to take advantage of the 2 tickets for £5

hopefully shift a few more before then

Really good given that its Thursday night on TV with no away support.

be great if we can beat the 12K we got for Round1 against Salford last year.

To think you can go to a super league game for £2.50 in 2017 is unbelievable. Can't accuse the club of not trying to attract new fans to the game. Only thing is a lot of people I talk to don't know about the offer so it's down to the pass holders them selves to offer these non rl fans the chance to experience our game. Could anyone work out what the attendance could be if say 80/90% of the pass holders took the 2 for £5 offer. Most people would probably feel cheeky asking some one who has a pass for tkts but I bet a lot of people would snap their hands off if offered the deal

[list

Let's say 8000 members. If 80% of them, which is 6400, all bought 2 extra tickets you'd get 8000 + (6400 x 2) = 20800 fans.

Especially as it is half term week and the youngsters wont have to be up early for School on the following day. We could top 14K!!! COYH

Forgot about half term. Just speaking to a city fan today who has got tkts off a pal. Watches SL on t.v but never been to live game. Taking his young son ( who is already pestering him for the new shirt for the night ). All it takes is for his lad to love it and you've potentially gained another 2 fans .
