Is the RSG an independent supporters group?

Just wondering as I know some one that has entered this membership scheme as they will benefit from shop savings. It does seem odd to me though that they are holding the 2011 price but will be charging a nominal fee to guarantee that price?? Or, is it guaranteed anyway for the £60 and then the nominal fee next year giving you more money off merchandise?

James Elston mentioned a Q&A session is going to be organised. Maybe you and Mrs Barista could go and find out all the info for us?

It what sense, up for it?
Won't be in Hull, but I do have Sky now, so I don't have to watch on teletext, or search out a RL friendly-pub in Leicester and my opinions won't be out of date by a week for a change.
Might try and get to a play-off game though - top 6 guarantees a home tie in at least 1 round, I think.

Loss of £478,341 in 2007 - could take level of debt to £2.9m if so.

More up for it than me! Should come join you in Leicester and enjoy the embarrassment of yet another thrashing away from local surroundings!

Skipping past the joyless discussion of distinctions between Profit/Loss and Balance sheet items, I'm sure we agree this is not sustainable indefinately. Having invested in getting into SL, Rovers now have balance the books. If only the club could come up with a scheme to raise new revenue.
Just to reinforce the point - 5% interest on a £3M loan or overdraft is £150K a year. About 700 season tickets just to service debt!

Do. The boss is away on a hen do I think, so we can fart, swear and watch the crowd trouble in comfort. I'm taking nothing for granted - think your team will see this as a chance for a bit of redemption.

I won't go to any of that stuff, you can borrow mine RT.

Give it a rest - it doesn't suit you but it suits others - get over it.

TBF Trace has been consistant on this subject and she has raised some very valid points, some of which are still to be answered.

| Well for better or worse I've got mine. If it means I get the same seats I've always had so be it. It means a jar or 2 less a week but I support my team and if sacrifices have to be made then they will be made. Will I complain no, until I get totally priced out I will always pay to watch my team.

I've registered my kids because they have been JR's for the last few years so the questions I am asking are relevant to me and my family, and to others. Just because I aren't wetting myself at the possibility of giving Rovers some MORE of my hard earned money doesn't make my opinion any less valid. With over 6000 season passholders and 8000+ attending games, yet only 900 registered, it would seem I'm not alone

I for one am not expecting to receive something for free...I am as passionate about Hull Kingston Rovers as any fan !!!
BUT..I will not tolerate being FORCED to hand over £60 just to be able to buy a pass at a reduced rate as I have done for the last 5 years !!
SO..NO, supporting your team is not all about blindly accepting some hair-brained, pick-pocket, ill-thought out, illusion of smoke and mirrors of an elite membership club funded by the gullible of East Hull at the expense of those of us who now after a number of years can no longer purchase a season pass during the early discount period (discontinued), and will have to wait until they go on general sale and now have to pay FULL PRICE!!!
Therefore by not wanting to join the elite membership scheme, I and others are being financially discriminated against, by being given no option than to pay FULL PRICE,
....WE ARE DAMNED IF WE DO AND DAMNED IF WE DON'T.

reduced rate is a gimmick in order to get your money in their bank sooner rather than later. club rovers is a gimmick. i have no doubt the price of a season pass would have increased regardless of the current economic climate, not many items reduce in cost in this day and age. pay or don't pay, but why whinge about it daft lad.
