In truth, nearly all SL clubs should be making a similar increase because they are nearly all making a loss. It sounds worse because Neil Hudgell appears to be more open about it than most other clubs.

Cas appear to be going through a similar process, appealing to fans to back the club with cash.

true but you've had the club rovers payment too.

Hudgell isnt daft and fans aren't either.
both realise that pass prices have to increase if the club is to have any chance of breaking even.






thats fair enough

RPI has been at ~4.8% the last couple of years, CPI not miles behind.

Is the having to queue up to get an under 5's pass down to card scanners on the turnstiles? At KC my little un just comes through the turnstile with me when I show my season pass. Just wondering if there will be a similar scenario at KC next season as we move to card passes?

I thought that bit wasn't too bad, works out at £3.46 per game v £5.00 at the KC. Does the charge include friendlies / cup / play off games?

I have no idea, Little one was born back end of 2011 season, we are RM pass holders but were in the 10-5 restaurant for the last 4 games so entered the ground through the reception and little one wasn't ID'd. In the off season we went to get our new 2012 passes and asked about little one, this is where we were told that entry is free but we'd need to prove age every time, they didn't suggest where we would go to do this, perhaps just at the turnstile? We actually wanted a pass with her name on to put with her first shirt. They did say it was £2.50 to cover cost of pass.

What Isn`t going to and doesn`t and hasn`t helped season pass sales is the short payment options at a time of year when expenditure is highest.. It has been suggested to the board many times to extend the payment options on passes and thus make them more attractive to a slightly wider market..

just checked and they are still only splitting to 3 payments according to the SO form... all of which has to be paid prior to the season starting.....
This IMO is where the club need to alter its approach and quickly... £80+ for 3months in the lead upto christmas then on top of that they expect us to buy shirts.. It pushes fans away as they cannot sort that sort of expenditure so soon to christmas, even worse for those that buy multi passes..

Then on top of that you have HullKRTV...£35 for a year...sure its still relatively poor quality but its still cheaper than £250 for a proper pass.. Neil and KR are just going to drive more people away due to lack of affordability which will ultimately hurt them more in the long run..

We are also still in a financial meltdown in the country.... the Board say they understand this and what do they do?.. Put the ruddy prices up..

rant over..

Only a complete dum dum would take a new born baby to a rugby match

did you also make it up about the RM stand selling out year on year because members of my family have just bought seats 2 days before games on 3 separate occasions this season including the wigan match

Restricted view seating only available on match days. If your family members are as blinkered as you then they won't notice the dfference.

Incorrect, ring at 11am on matchday and middle block seats are available to purchase

You're not supposed to deal in facts, be like Stan and make things up to suit you're argument

Yeah, 'cos you've always been a bright shining light, holding aloft the banner of truth.

No mention in the season ticket pack. I suspect that may have an increase as well.

Really? did you deliberatly miss out the bit where you have to pay for a meal as well?

Restricted view seats are a fiver more than the unrestricted ones next season for obvious reasons

I was a season pass holder about 15 years ago and have finally moved back within regular commuting range of Hull after being an outcast all of these years.

After much faffing to register both myself and my 12 year old son on the website in order to buy a ticket in his name as well as mine, can anyone confirm if the new season pass gets posted to you or if I have to go through to Hull to actually pick them up?

I guess it's the latter but if so, is payment only taken when the tickets are collected, and if so, how long are the tickets reserved for?

Typically, no one is answer the phone either to do with season tickets or the club shop at the minute.

think passes will be avalible to pick up in December .....if youve bought one youve bought one and will be able to pick up at anytime the shop is open .....although i am not certain i would also presume they will be avalible to pick up on a match day as well at craven park

I know what you're saying but lets be honest it shouldn't come a shock to anyone that passes go on sale around Sept / Oct every year, shirts are released in Nov / Dec every year. Why not start saving once the season starts for next year and when they sneak up and spring next years pasess on people in Oct the money will be there.

The club do allow people to pay throughout the year, its called getting a ticket for each match, I can't believe any sporting clubs will spread payment of passes past the day the season starts. It defeats the object of pass sales.

Haven't bought anything online for ages, probably quicker to go for an answer on here than to ask Mike Smith. What format is your user name? Is it an email address? I'm assuming I have to log in to get the renewal discount.

I got ours today. Very straight forward. Does anyone know how many season tickets have been sold so far?

Uve really got it in for mikey babes ant you

Just yours I think

Then you think very wrong.
