| As someone who will attend infrequently, £17 to stand strikes me as fairly reasonable, and so does £22 per month.

| Prices are reasonable but it all seems a bit complicated to me.
Will have to study it again.
Bit annoying you can't sort it over the phone...can't say I want a trek over to Barnet.

| So the cost of a top season ticket is £234 if I am right (£32 x 7 plus £2 x 5). Whereas last year a renewal at the Stoop was £140.
Mmmm think I remember posting that I would happily pay more to stay at the Stoop.
Bad news is it looks like the Warder will still be with us until Feb 8th, mind you I won't hold my breath about the Forum till it actually happens.

| There is an extra month as a joining fee.
Can't remember what I paid last season but if it was 140 that's stupidly cheap tbh.
I'll work it out later but a monthly membership may work for me. Due to back problems, the weather and the longer journey the first few matches are iffy for me so could pay on the day if fit and then take out a membership if it is working ok.

Well Blake Solly could be then contacted to ask why it has been cancelled, as he is going to be present!
Barnet FC seem to be working on their supporters!

That is very good to see. If we can pick up a few hundred newbies from them it will all help create a good atmosphere.

I would think as Barnet fans they are accustomed to this sort of thing PP. In the last two seasons we looked at the squad and convinced ourselves that these highly experienced players with NRL Origin and Grand Final experience we would hold our own and maybe challenge for the playoffs. They took us for a ride and just topped up their pensions before clearing off. This season we lack that experience but we have a lot of players who i think will give it 100% as their careers will depend on it either with the Broncos or back with their own clubs. The London lads know what they are fighting for for sure. It may indeed turn out to be a tough season but in RL, teams that give 100% often suceed against better opposition on paper due to the physicality of the game. We certainly need a couple of good players amongst the five we are still waiting for but RL is a funny old game. If we get off to a good start we may surprise a few people.

£17 Terrace has a roof, so do the £20 west stand seats. It's the uncovered section of the east stand you need to avoid.

Yes, but I was born in Epsom
In all seriousness I can hardly walk on occasions when it gets cold. When it reaches that level watching sport is irrelevant.
I hope to be at the Royal Navy Challenge Cup game. I won't know until the day whether I will be capable of doing so. Unfortunately the longer journey times to The Hive mean I am more likely to miss early season games now. I don't expect Broncos to pick their ground for my benefit though.
Sadly I do have to consider this sort of thing now. Believe me I'd love to turn the clock back two years so it wasn't an issue.

It does seem a terrible faff, and it appears that there is a "joining fee" equivalent to one month's membership. The only thing that is not really clear, probably quite deliberately too, is whether the joining fee in January, which is off-season is charget at off-season rate or on-season rate? I suspect you have to pay the "on-season rate" for joining even if you're "off-season".
All this ing around with memberships seems like a scam to keep fans paying money when they've nothing of interest to offer. I realise beggars can't be choosers, but how many other clubs apart from Barnet FC actually have this kind of arrangement? Are there are any serious clubs out there that do this? It's just so much easier to have an up front season price to pay each year and then it's sorted. And what's the deal with the bars, am I right in thinking you need to pay extra for your membership if you want to go for a drink? What about people buying on the day (especially away fans) are we going to tell them no beer? All very strange to someone who is used to proper season tickets.

Blake Solly will be there for Gus to hide behind. A fans forum with the CEO and the RFL mouthpiece? If it had happened in September, then yeah, I see the point, but the week before the season starts when "fans" will already know the cost of supporting their team and will only be concerned with on-field matters? Pointless exercise really....
The main questions that needs asking is what is the 1 year, 3 year and 5 year strategic plan for the club and what measures have been put in place to bankroll us should the owner of the Hive resent having to pay for something he currently gets paid to host?
I doubt there will be anything like an answer, given the clubs 2013 sponsors asked for a business/marketing plan at a recent meeting to try and renew the deal (pittance by the way....not worth a pittance) and Gus didn't have one!

A few Hundred eh. Personally, I couldn't move for Brentford fans at Griffin park and don't get me started on the Charlton supporters that followed us across town
So, open day at short notice with a chance for some more pearls of wisdom from TR in the bar afterwards? Brilliant. I look forward to PC Plum's reports on the standard of toilets and how keen and eager the "hungry players" all look whislt running between cones and in passing drills.
Great tactics from the club...starve fans of info for 4 months then when it's released, nobody cares if it's good or bad news.....

Hive bar is open to all before and after the match, premium members get access to bar in west stand/ or amber lounge in east stand.
Away fans have access to their own bar in the away end.
I've never gone for a season ticket as I've never had all the money up front so personally I prefer the membership model but some barnet fans asked the same question and they paid 1 year in advance instead of monthly.

If you're happy being fed bollox and then asking for seconds, then good for you Michael, but don't get all defensive when pertinent questions are asked.
For example, the pricing of the tickets is neither here nor there. They are priced and they will sell.....the pro's and con's of the scheme in irrelevant to fans like yourself who will pay to watch the game regardless.
What is important though is and I especially refer to fans who have followed this club through various guises, what is the long term plan for the club?
Even the announcement that we were at the Hive was not crystal clear as to the duration of the arrangement. It pointed to a shift in responsibilities in Year 2,with a further option of more involvement in year 3? This smacks of TK not wanting a ing thing to do with us at the end of the 1st or even 2nd year if we aren't at the top table.
Now, forgive me for caring about the clubs future rather than the instant gratification you so widely applaud, but all that has happened here is a bad decision was made when we said we were moving and we essentially painted ourselves into a corner, whereby, the Hive was the only option we had.
Hey, I get it. 13 Match-days at the Hive is great news for you and you can get your fix of top flight Rugby League, but when it all ends in tears.....and make no mistake Michael, it will end in tears, then you'll be asking, where did it all go wrong. And I'll tell you....it went wrong on the 14th of January 2011 when we handed control of the club to an inept sports administrator who had overseen downturns in his previous roles and who, it looks very much like, has totally destroyed the Club that a lot of us actually hold dear to our hearts.
Enjoy the Hive....I suspect we'll see the usual surge (lol...surge) of interest before it won't matter what membership you've bought, you'll be able to sit where you want!

Have a look at (not sure if direct link will work) www.footballgroundguide.com/barnet/ which provides a guide to the ground, access to beer at the ground and suggests a couple of pubs.
