Including losing your seat you may have had for 10+ years.

A membership scheme is a great idea if done properly and for teh right reasons. It offers an excellent opportunity to grow the customer base and makes retention of customers much easier.

If they were no good then TESCO's wouldn't have one.

I'd like to see us launch one at no cost or with a nominal fee to cover admin expenses

A Hull FC clubcard! Points for how many the oppo score to be redeemed in the shop. That would tighten up the defence!

Extra points for injuries to keep the physio working hard.

Cracking idea Jake!

Like I say if done right and for the correct reasons.

It should provide added benefits which are not detrimental to the fans who do not wish to join or force fans to join just to avoid a season pass hike!

A reply of estimable good sense and reasoning!! Its not the scheme that is wrong but it has to be thought out, costed out and must not rip off the fans or be a means of raising some quick cash to pay the bill!!

Otherwise it has been proven by many organisations outside RL to work well as a loyalty scheme that in turn makes accessing you customer base a lot easiler, rather than a money making enterprise.

In all seriousness its not a bad idea. A Tesco like clubcard would be a great additional benefit at no extra cost to the punter. The clubcard for example gives something back without taking anything from you too.

Wonder whether FC would think about this?

You see, they're clever these supermarkets. They get you to spend a fortune with them and feel like they're doing you the favour

It doesn't have to be. There is an argument to be had that there was a degree of compulsion about the Rovers scheme - and we had it.



But Hull's situation is different. If you lost your seat, there are plenty of others spare at the KC. But if this is the major concern, the scheme doesn't even have to be so closely linked to season tickets/reserved seats (though a members discount would be more or less inevitable). The club would want a decent level of uptake, to make the exercise worthwhile, but if they could come up with something that was attractive to a good proportion of your support, wouldn't the [ioption[/i be welcome?

You might not like the Rovers (pioneering, not market-leading

) version, either because you are partisan and don't like Rovers or you genuinely think it is cack, but I think it'd be daft to close your minds to something tailored to Hull and their fans.

It depends what it entailed I suppose, if it really was worth the money then yes.

I wouldn't be happy if Hull "forced" me to pay £60 into a new scheme so I "saved" £60 on my season pass increase next year

Even if Richard Agar endorsed it?

Well, if he offered to sign it for me it would obviously be priceless
