Better wait till 4th round of super league then

and it'll be a good indicator of our cup form seeing how we measure up to this years semi finalists

Nope ! our gang of 4 will be contributing to a Rovers fund unless we suddenly become cash rich this next week !!!
Just waiting for a yes or no me.

Just short of your usual 100,000 Away following then?

Seeing as you've posted on your own board that your reserves would smash Rovers, most of our fans probably think theres no point going.

I'm not bothering. One derby to many I feel. What swayed it in the end was the price. Rovers fans paid £10 to watch the Wigan friendly, Hull fans paid £12 to watch the Castleford game.

Why the Extra £4-£6 simply a derby.

To give the away side a bigger share?

Sliding price card. See N Hudgell for details on the concept.

It's an equally shared gate regardless of away fans.

Coming from a team who was the talk of SL last season with the price away fans paid compared to your home fans in the south. Pfffft jog on.

Yep, so it cost more to give the away side a bigger share.

Yes, another execution of differential pricing. The principle championed by Neil Hudgell.

I'm going and looking forward to seeing how Rovers defence stands up.

It's a fixed amount, not sure how much but it covered the costs of our training camp.

Can't imagine more than 10k turning out.

Share, to me, is a proportion thing. The absolute amount both clubs get goes up but the share is unchanged.

The price is set where it is with the aim of maximising revenue.

The 'discounts' referred to have been polite euphemisms for the same. Supply and demand, adapting to your circumstances. The only thing sinister was the twisting of language, but spin is endemic nowadays.

Fixed fee, really?

No, it isnt.

Neil Rudd confirmed on sunday over the tannoy that gate receipts are split 50/50.

That will put some Hull fans off.

No it wont. Pretty much every Hull fan i know thinks you are going to stuff us. They would happily give us 8 quid on the back of it!

Not going, anybody know if the game is on radio?

Silly. As Philb said once, you're light years ahead of us on the pitch. Adopting the unofficial forum's position that all FC fans are predicting we [uwill[/u be Top 4 and win a trophy wouldn't become you, Sir. One person even made a tongue in cheek suggest you'd be lucky to get within 60 points, such had been our boasting. Surprising.

I think Rovers will win. Sandercock's had time to rebuild his (up to today) inadequate motivational strategies, and we've heard nothing all week apart from they huge fullback upgrade you've made, how the jet-heeled Caro is the next big thing and how Paterson is that aggressive and vigorous in the tackle he could actually be Bruce Banner "on the turn", so to speak. FC's players are so old they'll be wheeled off after 23 minutes to be replaced by second string youngsters (Rovers have the pick of young local talent, we were told), whilst they enjoy tea in china cups and toasted teacakes, peering at the performance of pension investment funds through half-moon reading glasses. I like an investment fund.
