Sarcasm?

I agree with that, but then you wouldnt want to restrict the number of tickets Hull can sell (by just allocating north andpart of upper west). I would think that Hull could sell 10,000ish and Hull KR 8,000ish (inc passholders)

Hull fans will turn out for the game at KC Stadium because they will get to see the game .
and there will be no big rush for tickets plus the game is on Sky.its about time this game against Rovers was switched
To the KC Stadium more fans get to see the game it should have been done years ago.ps I was going to give this game a miss if it had been at Poorhouse Road .But now I will go to the game at KC Stadium

Why priority purchase, it's an away fixture?

If this game isn't due to get more than 20k, is there any point in opening the upper tier?

West and North to Rovers, East and South to Hull. Simplez.

Not that I think it will be particularly required for this fixture but I think (and I could well be wrong) that as a Rovers season ticket holder I get priority purchase for the away game at the KC.

Bot Hull clubs can benefit from this, it's up to our respective boards to ensure that we do.

That's how the away derby works isn't it? Dont go to NCP so wouldn't know.

I understand all the aurguments that have been put forward on here but I dont care about financial benefits to Hull FC - My interest is my financial benefits. I do not care were I sit in the Stadium (I never do by the way) as long as I pay the same as a Rovers PASSHOLDER. They can take the whole of the East Stand as far as I am concerned but any Hull Supporter should pay exactly what they paid per match for Craven Park. I have not a clue how much it costs to watch at CP but I will check this out before paying to watch their Home game at the KC.

I'm wounded. I really am.

I've always promoted the Golf stand - said on numerous occasions I've become inordinately fond of the barnacle-encrusted wreck - and have [ialways[/i suggested Hull fans visit CP with a half-decent chance of enjoying the match by buying tickets for it, despite the fact that that would would put desperately needed sovereigns in the poisoned-one's coffers.

You're a horrid old cynic. Bloody awkward, too.

But there are plenty who will care. I'm not talking about what is right or wrong, but if he wants to maximise income he needs to get the Hull fans interested

Say No to travellers

I agree. Personally I hope you outnumber us. Seige mentality suits us.

I agree but if it is cheaper to watch at CP (sitting) we should pay that price. Hull Fans I am sure would only be interested if that was the case. I presume Hudgell would be thinking on these lines - the cheaper it is the more he will get to go. By the way I am basing this on CP being cheaper than the KC and I dont know if that is so. I have not been to CP for a long time but I know that fans have been p....d off by being charged extra for just being a Hull Supporter this should not happen at the KC.

Its £22 to stand at Craven Park this season so I wouldn't be expecting any bargains! No idea how much RM Stand seating is.

Crikey and we have taken a lot of stick from other Fans because of our prices. I am not having a go at all - seems I live in a bubble but £22 to stand at any ground. Just shows how much I know.

Who cares which stands we get surely the most important thing is to fill the ground between the two clubs and make a real specticle of rugby leagues only true derby.

If rovers want the east then let them have it, personally it i think it will be good to see the north stand packed with fc fans creating a better atmosphere then when there spread out in the east stand.

25 sterlings in the RM Stand
Eat that

Hudgell wants to play at The Kc because Craven Park capacity is reduced due to building work.
Simple solution.
Craven Park usual capacity is around 10,500 ish.Kc Stadium capacity 25,404
For derby games, Fc get allocated around 1,000 tickets, for the South Stand at Craven Park.
Hkr home attendance, so far this season, around 7-8,000.
Therefore, for this game, temporarily reduce the capacity at the Kc to 10,500.
Allocated as 9,000 to Hkr, in the East and West Stand (majority of whom will be season pass holders)
1,500 to Fc fans, in North stand.
This way Hudgell and Hkr do not benefit from their ineptitude of not being able to get building work done in the close season by having a bigger gate than they would expect at a fully functioning Craven Park. After all, the ground improvements were part of them getting a grade B licence and also, how many other Superleague teams have the luxury of playing at a larger ground when it suits them?

Plus £19 to sit in the North stand would do nicely.

Gruel in the West Stand? You must be joking!

The fair solution is clearly a 50/50 split above 10500 fans.
THat goes without saying really, and surely noone can argue that point.
As regards the stands, I don't care, but from a sense of ease, and for hudgell to profit more, then east and south to FC fans.
I don't care where I go for this game but just seems more logical and would make more money for both clubs.

Clearly...

Glad you agree

its the beggining of a long dark road that leads to.....................merger!!!!!
