North Stand close to selling out…
With anticipation reaching fever pitch ahead of the 2014 season, the brand new £8m North Stand is close to selling out for the opening game against the Leeds Rhinos.
Individual match tickets are no longer available and will not be released on the day of the game. The remaining tickets have been ring fenced for supporters wishing to purchase a Season Membership or individuals wishing to purchase a one-off place in the Rovers 200 restaurant...
So I make that North+Well sold out (due to ring fencing) and the west Limited.

| I think bit of a waste potentially leaving seats empty and hoping people buy a season ticket. Very risky.
I would have thought it's worth people buying single game tickets and making sure they want to come again

Your worst nightmare is to be 150 yards away from 1500 schools children in the opposite stand?

Takeoff the Leeds sales of 1,500 at its only 2,000 extra.
Underwhelming TBH.'"
How far we have come, underwhelmed with a ten thousand crowd at Craven Park! Harp back ten years, and we'd be overwhelmed with a crowd a fifth of that.

Now a CP expert, am I getting my stands mixed up?
So the new stand is the North (which I am in) and the kids are in the South?
If so, good news, poor kids though, hope they have good eyesight

Exactly. I find it astonishing the match is close to a sell out and yet people are still moaning.

You will get very few that buy a season pass this late in the season. I could be wrong but I reckon they'll have held back tickets in the 10's and 20's not the hundreds. Rovers seem very clued on commercially this season and certainly won't shoot themselves in the foot. This move also forces people who can't afford a season pass or don't fancy one to go and purchase a ticket for the east stand. Would be bad I think if a fan wanted to get a season pass last minute and couldn't because the stand they would like one for was sold out, he'd only get 12 games instead of 13 in his chosen stand.

All will have paid. Why would 4500 get in for free?

Hull FC have a legally binding contract that makes the SMC buy 1500 season passes from Hull FC every year. So I don't think your in any position to comment about the Sentamu academy buying 1500 South stand tickets to give to there pupils.

You will find out my friend that 10 thousand are paying customers, 1500 are tickets paid for by our sponsorship with Archbishop Sentamu Academy.
So in answer to your question, all will be paying customers. Good business by the Hudge don't you think?
