It is a licensing condition, FC cannot change the approach, nor can the SMC, nor do we want to.

Can you not change it in the away end for Fridays game. I think us Wiganers might be needing a drink or two.

According to RLW magazine most standing prices are about £17-£18 so £2 more to sit in the best stadium in the league isn't too bad really.

Why would you not want to?
Why restrict your good natured section of fans from refreshments?

The thing is that although this sounds good in practice it wouldn't necessarily work( Rogues suggested the same thing earlier in the thread). What could happen is that the away fans who are to be charged £20 in the North stand (ie Hull, HullKR, Leeds etc) could decide to pay less and pay home prices in the South , East or West stands. Just imagine that. I know that RL fans pride themselves in being able to mingle but I also have to admit that the KC with its segregation is a safer place to take the family than the Boulevard ever was.

| I'll happily pay £20 for a seat in a good stadium with an uninterupted view of the field and under cover. That covers Hull, Wigan, and Huddersfield.
At the other end of the scale Wakefield, Castleford and Bridgend should be £10 with the rest somewhere between.
If the RFL actually enforced a pricing structure of this nature it would be a big incentive for the poor grounds to improve or not be able to compete with the richer clubs.

Or we could just borrow our richer neighbours football stadium. Mind you we may not be able to play there when we need to.

Thing is at the KC Stadium they charge the away fans a higher price for food and drink than they do at the kiosks in the "home" areas of the stadium.
Now that truly is a rip off about which something should be done.

If this is true it's a bluddy disgrace - I've often had rants about away fans not being treated fairly (eg: allocated the only open stand at Headingley, Hull FC fans being the only Away fans forced into the South "Stand" at Caravan Park and split into the 4 corners of the ground at Catalans) but didn't think we were guilty.
If true, Hull FC should petition the SMC to change this discrimination although Hull do not - like Wigan- profit from or run the eating and drinking facilities which are, incidentally, very poor in the Home stand too.
I'd cut my losses if I were you and indulge in a Pie and Pint at the Botannic pub. Pound a pie and delicious

As someone else said, HullFC have no control over the catering. The foods disgraceful anyway pies so hot they provide geothermal energy to a small country, flat beer, bags of crisps that are more expensive than caviar...I don't get why people pay such prices every week at sports grounds.
as for the entry price, it was £20 last season, as we froze all our prices for this year. And Rovers charged our fans (but no other teams fans) £17 to stand in the infamous Craven Park South Stand which is nearer Holland than the pitch!

This might have been sarcasm but if your serious I don't agree. JJB is the best stadium in the league. Great parking, easy to get to, shops and restaraunts right outside and you can drink your beer and watch the game.
KC is a close second though, only downsides are pricing, stewards and beer quality...
