I'm in a similar scenario (170 mile round trip) but prefer Fridays, always has to be fingers crossed that the M62 is ok (ish), but unless I choose to drive home for other commitments then I make an overnight of it with family /friends with a leisurely drive back on Saturday.
TBH Fri, Sat or Sun I'd still be there regardless, but Friday is the preference

| Quote: carl_spackler "You asked why they might be split, I simply said it may well be because most fans appear to be split on the issue, so it's a likely reason.
For the research, have FC Voices got a magic book with all the names, addresses and telephone numbers of Hull FC fans to ask everybody? If not, research is always going to be of a sample.
What some just seem to be unable to get into their heads is the possibility that there may not be a majority of people who think the same as them. It seems that unless research shows the results that they want, they'd rather believe it was falsified.'"
Agree, there are many opinions, i just dont think Voices represent them, not even 20%
It's like this board, if your opinion doesnt fit with the CC or the big posters, the KW's rip you to bits

FCVoices isn't independent of the club, it's a gesture by the previous management to have us believe they were listening, I know a number of the FCVoices members and they do a good job, but they are not voted into position by anything like a democratic process, you or I would never be entertained as members of the group, HISA died because people had the audacity to say what they thought (and have subsequently been vindicated by AP himself saying the previous lot didn't invest but took money out)'"
Printed and framed
Im off for a lie down now

They should have a mandate from the fans, simple as. They should be going to the club with " X % want friday Y % want Sat and Z % want Sunday after our research"'"
A Mori poll of as little as 500 people is often used to express the views of a nation (Parliamentary Elections, etc). If FC have conducted there own poll at the 9's and elsewhere then they are probably getting a fair representation of the fans feelings. Even this Poll (117 votes so far) is clearly showing that Fridays are preferred.
End of the day AP has to increase attendances, if they stagnate next season then he may try a mix of Fri / Sun

| They need to reduce away ticket prices now. I really don't believe £25 is a fair price when the South is £19.

I'm not sure that cutting prices for away fans will greatly increase the number of away fans. The fans of some clubs just don't travel in great numbers and in these difficult times people are going to watch their team at home rather than away. Hull and Rovers are the exception.

It will cost us some revenue though and the bad publicity of course.

| On the HDM website, at the bottom of the article about McGoldrick
Quote: "HULL have also announced they will revert to playing their home games on a Friday night for the start of the 2013 season.'"

I meant for next season.

I know what you're saying, but I think it definatley puts people off. £25 is steep, I appreciate we have the best stadium in the league but it's a lot of money IMO.
Quote: Standee "No allowed to'"
Why?

Rule and Kath lied about a lot, I'm sure AP hinted that on this one it is the reason tickets cant be dropped
