| I sincerely hope that we get a deal that's right for Rovers fans here. Having bought my pass in good faith I expect no lesser view than I'm used to. Therefore I would expect several posts to be installed along the length of the East Stand at the KC in order to replicate my viewing pleasure.
I also want to make sure I have a fat gobby drunken woman sat immediately behind me, without her input I can't be sure of the rules of the game.

If you tell me where you're sat, I can go in drag if you like. People at Saturday nights game kept calling me a girls name so I'm on the right track.

Exhibit A:
Quote ="Bombed Out"Hudge just loves to stir it up and has the little man shouting loudest attitude.
He will be doing this to put our noses out of joint as he knows fully what reaction he will get from Hull fans he also thinks he will make more money for his grubby little club.
If he does rent the ground from the SMC I guess he can also dictate the pricing as the home team.
I don't go to their ground on the principle I don't want to give my money to them and I unfortunately would not attend this game on the same principle.'"

| I guess Rovers will be able to charge Hull FC fans £25 to sit in the North stand. I would price the South stand at £19 for Rovers fans only.

| Quote ="SirStan"What would you define as "maximum advantage"?'"
An interesting muse and one which I've asked on our board.
I guess we first have to assume that Hudge has not been forced into this decision by not being able to offer Hull the minimum number of away allocated tickets now the CP capacity has been reduced, and is merely doing this for typical begging reasons.
If the former, then Hull should be looking to take revenue from all tickets sold over the new capacity (8500?), cut with the SMC and with no benefit to Rovers. If the latter, from all tickets over the old capacity (10500ish?).
You, as the home team would take possession of the best stand with it's corporate facilities for your use [iand [/ithe cushioned seats and one end. I.e., you'd have West, West Upper and North. That way, you'd maximise the 'away ' support and cause the minimum of logistical difficulties (tickets have to be sold through the KC ticket office so Hull fans would merely buy their 'own' 'home' seats anyway resulting in a mixed stand) and, of course, make policing issues easier.
Guess we also have to factor in how much the Egyptian would charge. No, no, silly worm, he's a Rovers benefactor [iand[/i has made clear to the people of this city his dedication to sports philanthropy in Hull, so he should do it free or at cost for his mucker.
You could have the "home" dressing room, if you [ireally[/i wanted it , it's identical to the "away" one anyway. I believe the SMC already cream off the profits from any catering so there's not much to be gained there either.
Is it really worth it?

More away tickets sold=more 10%'s.
So its not like it wont benefit you having the game moved to the KC.

We usually lose to you at the KC. Silly. I wanted one more go in the Golf Stand, anyway.

Pick the bones out of that one!
Do you want Batley's slope as well? Firstly, is there a "minimum number" of away tickets for a super league fixture? I know it exists in Challenge Cup ties, not so sure for league fixtures. As for revenue, I don't see why Hull FC should make any money whatsoever for an away fixture, apart from 10% of tickets sold like the normal revenue stream you'd expect for an away game. As for seating allocation, as long as I get a touchline view comparable with my home view then what you are given is really of no interest to me. Dressing rooms, well I understand they have laminate flooring in the home dressing room so you can keep it.

Good bait that.
I particularly like the way you get to keep all the money over and above how many tickets we could sell at home, well, apart from your generous offer of five hundred.

On those terms? Of course not, but you knew that.

| This really should be a non-issue for fans, surely? The KC has plenty of room to accommodate everyone who is likely to attend in seats with a perfect view regardless of which stand folk end up in. There should even be plenty of flexibility for those that prefer either an end-on or side view.
As far as the financials are concerned, as long as it doesn't actually [icost[/i FC any money then where's the problem? We wouldn't have made anything from the fixture at CP anyway.

Get out.
Far too early for a sensible post on this thread, we have to do the little dance first.
