Pet lip? Take a look at this from the Wire forumareas of the "developing world" such as Hull. There are two sets of prices; one for the locals and another that is charged to tourists.

We should look upon this as doing our bit to help an under-priveledged area of the world to develop. Its a kin to saving used stamps for the Blue Peter Appeal. Perhaps Hull should erect a "totalometer" above the away turnstyles showing exactly how much they have raised through the blatant ripping-off of away fans via their pricing structure.'"

Quote: Horatio Yed "No i didn't but like i said a 'perception' that people are being fleeced is all that's needed to put people off. On the food issue regardless of who is in control people still equate it to Hull FC, people will still think "sod going to watch Hull FC they rip you off" Now if 50 people are put off by those prices even if they are £19 that's £950 and times that by 11 (exclude Cats and Broncos) £10,450 plus a programme a burger or pint and your doing yourself an injustice. You're right why should away fans benefit, our money is obviously too good for you.'" I know it's different because you own your stadium, but is the catering franchised out at the Halliwell? I know similar crappy fodder is peddled at Wigan so am assuming they also use this lot www.eventmanagementcatering.com/. Could be wrong, though.

But you're happy to pay £20 to stand in the open at Leeds?

I accept that all standing at Leeds is £20 for all supporters but only the away supporters are compelled to stand in the open, at the mercy of the elements

For this reason I hate Headingley and Leeds second only to Them. And the fact that despite there being loads of loos, they only usually open the few near the bar. Wholly inadequate and disgustingly unhygenic by halftime.

And on that point I agree with you. Did that 3 years ago in feb and still defrosting.

Best wrap up well for next month then.

If you know any sea anglers, see if they'll lend you a Sundridge flotation suit. Warm as toast and red & white too

Shouldn't be able to charge the away fans £6 more per ticket for what is the same view etc as the South stand. Even the blatant rip off machine that is premiership football has a rule in place to prevent this.

All reason and excuses and rewarding fans and comparing it to other grounds aside

Away fans think they are being ripped off/taken advantage of, no press release or explanation is going to suffice for most away fans and they'll stay away.

did you complain last season when it was £23?

you have just under 3 weeks now to purchase a ticket at that price, so no difference if you don't

That's their choice.

Hull KR apart, we're hardly turning them away at the turnstiles anyway

From looking around away fan prices i've found

1.Warrington £18.50 advance-£20 on day
2. Wigan £20
3.Saints £18.50 advance -£20 on day
4.Huddersfield £18 advanced £21 on day
5.Leeds £20
6. Catalans £13
7.Hull FC £23 advanced-£25 on day
8.Hull KR ?
9. Castleford £20
10. Bradford £16 advance-£20 on day
11. Wakefield £20
12. London £10 first game £15 thereafter
13. Salford £20
14. Widnes £20

Depends on the quality of RL you are watching

You have quoted the wakefield price for this weekends friendly when the season starts its £20

No worries i'll amend it

now compare them like for like
