Quite. The figures, if correct, look strong to me and will have brought in much needed revenue at this time of year.
Ultimately the vital thing for Rovers is not necessarily to increase season pass sales but rather to increase actual attendances at Craven Park.

Mrs B doesn't seem very good at these figures lark

worst thing you could have said, she'll now come on here with spreadsheets, powerpoint presentations, pie charts and any type of graph you care to name proving she is right!!!!! no obsession or anything tho!!!!!

In the name of fairness lets hope she tells Wigan, Saints and Salford fans aswell that there ticket sales are not to her liking....





( All up on last year to date )

she'll get het own unique twist on it all i'm sure

TBF, they may have reached that magical 5,000th sale already but with the publicity, photo shoots that will be required by the HDM, the winner may be to embarrased to allow this

Our Pass sales will be down year on year, I think that's clear. It's disappointing and a concern. There is a thread on season passes on the FC board where people are debating the reasons for this at length. All of which has nothing to do with the fact that Rovers pass sales are more than 500 down vs November 2008, despite making your biggest signing of the SL era. Clearly you're on track to break records, but that's another 1400 passes to sell to break last year's total, which is quite a few.

You're struggling here, aren't you?
November 2008 Rovers had sold "more than 6000" passes
November 2009 Hudgell says online that pass sales are in line with the previous year "give or take a few". Not a few hundred, you'll note.
December 2010 Pass sales of 5500 are declared an increase vs the same time last year.

Really?

Prove it hun.

Your Pass sales will be down year on year, I think that's clear. It's disappointing and a concern,(but not to us)
Hulls pass sales are more than 2500 down vs December 2009, and that's another 4500 passes to sell to break last year's total, which is quite a few.

Well, why don't you go on there and voice your concerns where people might be bothered about what you think instead of Trolling on here every day, where quite frankly, you've become tedious and people really arn't concerned about your concerns...

Amen.

We can cope been a few hundred down I wud be worried if we was 4000 down, looks like Sir Rule will be giving away even more free tickets to make the gates look good yet again next season.

Please discuss Hull FC's pass sales on the Hull FC forum. Ta. They have different deadlines and I suspect the apparent doom and gloom is partly to set up one of those 'timely boosts', so tread careful like.

Are Rovers selling passes for the "extended bit" of the east stand or will that be an as and when basis?

Hello Mrs B. I don't post very much but I often read whats been put on here. It always puzzles me as to why you are on the HKR forum? Why are you so interested in the HKR forum. If us HKR fans would like to take what the chairman says as good news then why try and put HKR down at every opportunity? No offence meant by this but you just baffle me sometimes.

Are you a closet KR fan?

You're missing the point.

1) In November 2008 sales were over 6000.
2)In November 2009 the direct quote from Hudgell was "Figures for season pass sales are comparable with last year at this stage give or take a few."
3)In December 2010, with a couple of extra weeks of sales under their belt, we're now told that sales are 5500 and that is up on the same time last year.

So the possible scenarios are as follows:
Statements 1 and 3 are correct, and statement 2 is false, and sales in November 2009 were actually below 5500, so when Hudgell said "are comparable with last year at this stage give or take a few", he actually meant " are down at least 500".
Statements 1 and 2 are correct and the statement 3,that sales are up on the same time last year at 5500, is incorrect
Statement 1 was incorrect and sales have never been over 6000 in November.

Hello Mrs B. Did you know it is bad manners to ignore people?

Just trying to keep you all honest, since when was independent scrutiny outlawed?

Look, without me this board, with the exception of the luscious Mr Dog and pmh (although I'm a bit peeved that he has a favourite that's not me, but I think he's just trying to get me to work harder) is just rather dull self-congratulation. Every board needs a pantomime villain, particularly at this time of year. Besides, your chairman seems to enjoy putting FC down. Nowt wrong with some reciprocation.
