Nobody has mentioned the price of entry for away fans. The away fans I’ve spoken to seem to feel they are paying too much.

You could try and get all clubs to agree a standard fee for adult entry to all SL grounds for away matches including playoffs. That I feel would increase away support for all clubs.

Does a £3 difference really put that many people off?

Why not make it a flat £10 for a season for away adult fans at every clubs ground. Then see how clubs feel about it after the season ends. Would rather make the same amount from gate recepits but have more fans in ground. Not only does it boost attendance but it could attract more floating home fans if KC atmosphere is better. It also increases sales of food and drink in terraces.

Guess one problem with that is that some clubs rely on away support like Quins. Dropping away fans to £10 would seriously reduce their income stream.

true but we will take over 3.000 on sunday 45 mins in car and a hour on coach so yep hull fans will go to the moon and back to watch fc win if we can get though the ash ?

I presume most away fans sit towards the East Stand as that is where the North Stand turnstyles are. Further towards the West Stand are offices.

Who would you say has brought the most numbers to the KC this year.

How many roughly would you say these teams took:

Huddrsfield -
Bradford -
Wire -
Quins -
Wakey -

Do you think there would be less going to Cas if we played it Friday night or more ?

The day its played does have some effect but to what degree

Great idea!

I missed for the first time this year and i have not missed since you moved to the KC, partly down to cost of travel and entry (and i'm not having a go at pricing) Chav corner does not really bother me but it does put some off.

So for me its purely down to my own finances, the KC as always been my favourite away game.

At the moment finances will be a bit tighter for a lot of folk and with Hull being the most expensive and furthest away for a lot of clubs then I suppose it's not surprising that it will suffer from a drop in away fans.

So the most Wire. I was there and i'd easily say there was 1.5k.

turnstiles at each end but they only normally open the NE ones due to thats were the buses drop off

Ive always said away fans should be moved more over to the west were possible

The KC is one of the most, if not, the most expensive stadiums for fans in the game.

1000 tops. It holds 4000, no way was it over 1/3 full

i cant remember paying over 20.00 anywere

how much is the north stand now ??

£21

And beer is more expensive for away fans

How would home fans feel about paying more to watch their own team than away fans do. Would it encourage walk up fans to go in the away end for home games?

A bloke I work with who's a steward at the KC tells me that chav corner has been much worse this season since they lifted the booze ban. Whether word's got around and that's a factor is anybody's guess.

After speaking to a Leeds fan and commenting that Leeds Bradford Cas etc do noy travel to Hull in large numbers ,his reply was WE FOLLOW LEEDS EVERYWHERE EXCEPT HULL .meaning FC and KR . He even started going on about the time at Huddersfield when the goal posts where pulled down .In the end I told him to grow up and get real .The thing is Hull as a city has been pulled down to much in the past .The people that live in all of these exclusive citys such as Leeds Bradford Cas and all the rest of the marvelous places where people are queuing up to live, because of the zero crime rates high employment figures etc .They need to to open there eyes and have a look at the real picture they live in holes
If they do not want to come good

Welcome to HELL I mean Hull

I quite enjoy my trips to hull with wigan watching both hkr and hfc. Kr is good because of George Fairburns pub the one with the windmill. Good cheap food in there.

Hull Fc I like visiting for the atmosphere, no matter how many wigan take there is a good atmosphere there and good banter. I have actually not seen any trouble between wigan and hull fans for close to two years now.

Apart from last year, numbers seemed to be down a bit at KC , wigan usually bring 1,500/2,000 to Kc and we usually fill the temporary stand at KR can see us bringing high numbers this year aswell with the team flying high at the top of the league

You have to be desperate for a pint to want to purchase it in the first place.
