Stop moaning about something that won't affect you then.

Give over. Do you really think so little of your fellow fans?

| commercial business in maximising opportunity shock!
do people think Hull FC is a charity or something? at least AP has INVESTED money, so he has every right to try and maximise the commercial gains. IMHO

Amazing isn't it, people will attend a testemonial event for a player who has earned over 60K a season for a long time, yet they begrudge spending £57 on a shirt, which probably equates to £20 profit that pays said players wages etc.

what i am saying is that no matter how many or how good the shirts are, they will be sold in vast numbers at excessive cost to fans.. and thats a fact.... hence why they try to shift 3!!!! shirts in one season.......
totally unneaded IMO... and to charge over £40 a throw is bordering on an insult.....
so lets put it in context...... season pass £230, home shirt £45, away shirt £45, "magic" shirt £45... total : £320......
and lets be honest, fc have afew donuts who will buy all 3 shirts.....

It might not go directly but it all goes towards the club. A club that is a business. Now if you want bucket collections like we did for Bradford, or want a foreign knight in shinning armour like Salford or simply want us to merge again with another bankrupt club then stick to your stance. That is the stark reality of sport in today's world.
Nobody complains when they release yet more T shirts, shorts, fridge magnets, packets of over priced but branded sweets. This shirt is simply another item that you can choose to purchase or not.
I have bought one, but that's a relief to me as I don't like our kits this year. Personal choice.

| Quote: K-Diddy "If you don't like it don't buy it, it really is that simple. Yes 3 shirts in 1 season is a bit excessive but the club arnt making anybody buy anything, but extra merchandise
4 shirts as there will be a charity one for a random game and you could even include Yeamo's shirt and call it 5 at a push.
Quote: K-Diddy "i wont be buying it, dont you worry.. thing is, fc know that they will shift any old shirts in mass at excessive cost to the punters, they dont really give a shi$ about fans.....'"
Maybe they do give a shi%, maybe there has been a lower then expected uptake on the purchase of shirts this season, i know myself and a fair few others are not inspired by the home or away shirts this year but like the look of the magic one and have or will purchase one because of that.
However as K-Diddy above points out, you don't need to purchase one.

The club has to at least break even, all wasy of raising revenue have to be considered. If you don't want one don't buy it, all the club are doing is giving you another product.
Sold 450 now.
