| I'm not going thankfully. At work and couldn't get the day off. Looks like the gaffer did me a favour and saved me some money and the dog getting a kick as well.

| Quote: UllFC "As things stand I won't be renewing for the first time in 15 years. The only home game I've enjoyed this season was the derby, the rest have either been painfully drab with no atmosphere, or have been walkovers against very poor sides. I have better things to be spend £250-300 a year on.
I also think our crowds have been worse than the club have been announcing (No way was there almost 12K at the Salford game for example, more like 9K) so people have already been deserting the club in big numbers.'"
Even the officially announced attendances this season have shrunk alarmingly. The aggregate so far is 17,221 down on the same fixtures last season. The Salford gate was the only time this season we have improved on the corresponding fixture fro last year (by a whopping 302). The final season average is certain to be our lowest since 2006.

| I'm going. It's the only thing that keeps my spirits up; watching 2 drives, 3 drop offs and a mickey poor kick to the fullback feeds my desires to the full. If only we could go back to the old days of unlimited tackles and didn't have to spoil it with a poor kick I'd be satiated beyond my wildest dreams.

If you take the average ticket price (taking into account pass holders, concessions and junior prices) of a home game as being say £18 that 17,221 less coming through the turnstiles is 300K+ reduction in income for the club.
how bad do the gates have to dwindle before they give Noble, McLennan or Anderson (all sat at home watching day time TV waiting for the phone to ring) a call?

| Bought my ticket yesterday but that was probably down to having to exchange the kids vouchers for free tickets.
Might not even end up going.

so when i posted a bit ago that hull were looking at a 200k-300k loss i got shot down straight away from people on here but its not that hard to believe actually is it given the extreme loss from ticket sales this year, then there the merchandise which i presume will be down i know lots of people who normally spend alot in the shop havent spent a penny including me and there the resturants ect and it was reported that the circle resutrant hasnt even been opend this year. not to mention the transfer fees for westy 100k plus and then sam obst , dosent look great does it i wonder if mr rule and crew will be coughing up to cover the losses

And they (the board) have a ready made excuse in the economic climate for any fall in revenue, i'm afraid nothing in the short to medium term is going to change at our club.

| I'm still boycotting.
The club won't get a penny from me whilst Agar is in charge.
Have been to one game this season (Bradford away) and that was woeful and did nothing to make me change my mind.

Catalan's crowds are going from strength to strength and will grow further with their new stand. Because they are playing rugby the public want to see.
A few years ago I used to regularly invite friends and workmates along to the 'big' games with me...now outside of the 'hardcore' support base there is little interest in going to games.

| I have been to two games all year..Widnes away and Hudds at home. Don't intend to go to anymore this year. This after not renewing my season pass which i had for the last 12 years.
I haven't bought anything from the club shop all year and i don't intend to. I love my club but i'd rather stick to pins in my eyes than pay to watch the rubbish that's been served up to us over the past 4 years

exactly ok our stadium is great but its no good having the ground half full with rows of empty seats and most of all no atmosphere its just no a great way of introducing non hull or rugby fans

And you have the bonus of turning it off,and have nobody accuse you of sneaking out.
