Oh, I'm not saying it in "aren't Hull rubbish they've sold less passes than last season" kind of way, I just know that the strategy is different this year to last when I think the target was 9K.
This year with Hull (the city) being badly affected due to such a large percentage of the population working in the public sector (and particularly the NHS) they're not setting such specific targets as they realise that money will be tight for a lot of people. |

Oh, I'm aware of that Big Dave T, and tbh I hope both clubs sell as many as is possible.
I'm also aware that Hull won't be surprised or particularly disappointed if they sell a few less this year than last, I'm in no way stating that you [iwill[/i sell less and that I hope you do.
Anyway, as ever I've taken this off topic so I'll shut me cake hole now! |

I think FC will sell less. We sold 9500 last year. I'd expect 8500 this year max. I dont think it's down to economic conditions though, more the tripe we see on the pitch.  |

Reminds me of a Jarvis Cocker song that post. |

So the number of pass holders is directly relative to quality of product on the pitch. Therefore this means FC play more entertaining rugby than all teams except Leeds and Wigan.. Better tell Wire and Saints to go for that one up stuff + aimless kick, its the future. |

| Quote ="Mrs Barista"So FC, by allowing their supporters cash in the bank for an additional 13 weeks and 3 or 4 extra month end pay cheques (last year the discount window was extended to the first week in January to allow for this), are actively disadvantaging them? Perhaps you should suggest Rovers do their fans a favour and launch season passes for 2012 at Easter 2011 to they can pay for them before the expense of the the summer holidays.
There is a charge to retailers for use of debit and credit cards, but it depends on the volume of transactions that retailer makes. Credit card charges are a % of the transaction value but debit cards are a fixed fee per transaction. Last place I worked it was 60p per transaction but that's going back a few years.'"
I bet it's fun in your home.  |

| Quote ="barham red"Suppose the way to look at it is, are Rovers fans generally happy with the value they get for the money they pay out, on the whole the answer is yes. Are FC fans happy with the value they get, not judging by a lot of the not buying another pass brigade on here.
Simply summarised. £485 to watch entertaining rugby or £455 to watch utter durge, its a no brainer..
Still I suppose you can sit there happily unentertained and applaud the profit.

I agree with you. An d I don't care. Hull fans have been exploited too long. (I do think as well though that club rovers is a complete and utter rip off)
I want to see some entertainment. We have had maybe 3 episodes (of value) at home, but the rest cack, and some expensive away trips that I went to, to see us play abject dirge.
That said as well, and I am sure that rovers fans will agree, you are not the best side in the league for entertainment by a long shot. A lot of tries come from kicks. Not all that to crow about. We do have a great stadium, if only it would be rocking more than it is not, it would make our season pass much better value than yours. But, for the last 3 seasons, like I said first up, I would have to agreee. Thinkgs can change though.................  |
