I'm going. It's the only thing that keeps my spirits up; watching 2 drives, 3 drop offs and a mickey poor kick to the fullback feeds my desires to the full. If only we could go back to the old days of unlimited tackles and didn't have to spoil it with a poor kick I'd be satiated beyond my wildest dreams.

If you take the average ticket price (taking into account pass holders, concessions and junior prices) of a home game as being say £18 that 17,221 less coming through the turnstiles is 300K+ reduction in income for the club.

how bad do the gates have to dwindle before they give Noble, McLennan or Anderson (all sat at home watching day time TV waiting for the phone to ring) a call?

Bought my ticket yesterday but that was probably down to having to exchange the kids vouchers for free tickets.

Might not even end up going.

so when i posted a bit ago that hull were looking at a 200k-300k loss i got shot down straight away from people on here but its not that hard to believe actually is it given the extreme loss from ticket sales this year, then there the merchandise which i presume will be down i know lots of people who normally spend alot in the shop havent spent a penny including me and there the resturants ect and it was reported that the circle resutrant hasnt even been opend this year. not to mention the transfer fees for westy 100k plus and then sam obst

, dosent look great does it i wonder if mr rule and crew will be coughing up to cover the losses

And they (the board) have a ready made excuse in the economic climate for any fall in revenue, i'm afraid nothing in the short to medium term is going to change at our club.

yet wigan have gone from losing 600k plus a year to now making a profit, all that has happened since the credit crunch ect has come into play a few years ago

I'm still boycotting.

The club won't get a penny from me whilst Agar is in charge.


Have been to one game this season (Bradford away) and that was woeful and did nothing to make me change my mind.

Catalan's crowds are going from strength to strength and will grow further with their new stand. Because they are playing rugby the public want to see.

A few years ago I used to regularly invite friends and workmates along to the 'big' games with me...now outside of the 'hardcore' support base there is little interest in going to games.

I have been to two games all year..Widnes away and Hudds at home. Don't intend to go to anymore this year. This after not renewing my season pass which i had for the last 12 years.

I haven't bought anything from the club shop all year and i don't intend to. I love my club but i'd rather stick to pins in my eyes than pay to watch the rubbish that's been served up to us over the past [u4 years[/u

exactly ok our stadium is great but its no good having the ground half full with rows of empty seats and most of all no atmosphere its just no a great way of introducing non hull or rugby fans

Watching on the TV, save money.

And you have the bonus of turning it off,and have nobody accuse you of sneaking out.

Yep same here Paul, join me for an argument on here if you want

Would this be the 5 minute,or 10 minute one?

Stupid git, oh sorry wrong room.

It's a date

Got to love the clubs attempt to market this clash, 1 article and 2 photo's of the 2005 cup win...bringing up that topic only rubs salt further in to the wounds.

I can't see us repeating the attacking flair (Motu's chip, Blacklock's pass off the deck) Brough and Cooke's kicking/organizing, or the phenomenal work rate of Swain and Kearney...but apart from those attributes the 2011 team are doing just fine



Not sure any Leeds player will be doing a 'Marcus Bai' either!

TV for me, well, the first 20 minutes anyway, after that I might go and watch the decking grow.

Got tickets after all, but not sitting in my usual seat. Not for £45 a pop anyway. Got normal priced tickets in W10. No Kingston Suite for me this week, so that will save me some money.

i suspect the tunnel area will be a bit less full than normal this week

We'll be joining you in the West.

Were making a day of it.
Full on sesh.
Admiral 9am.

I'll be there, 2nd game in 2 years, be nice if they would at least score a try for me.

Still think we have a decent chance of winning as Leeds aren't much better than us.

Bit depressing really.

Sadly Agar will be going

FFS, what are you expecting, last minute drop goal winners every game?

There has been one truely awful game at home (Wakefield). Games against rovers, St's, Cas, Bradford and Hudds were all good contests. Are you seriously having a go at the club for hammering the opposition?

What would they gain by overstating the gate? I remember the days when as a tax dodge they would deliberately understate them.

Was going before last friday but now having second thoughts after that trash last week

Looks better for the sponsors
