The programme is very impressive and if they are like that every home game Im sure readership will be up, i personally will be buying one when i dont usually. Really happy with the content and its good to hear the opinions of so many different parts of the club set up. Although Im still a bit hacked off that Johnny pinched my user name for his column title.



Well done Hull FC

So who's going to buy one the next game that wouldn't usually?

Me. Although only because it's Quins and it will therefore be more interesting than watching the game.

Is there no one in the quins team that you'd consider 'totty' then?

i really liked the content and quality and would buy one next time ,save me losing it at the bookies

must admit never normally buy one but may be tempted now and again having seen the quality. one thing i dont want to see is articles in the program cropping up elsewhere in newspapers etc. would hope that most stuff in there is exclusive. how much will the magazine be?

final question, does anyone think there would be mileage in a hull fc magazine produced maybe monthly and distributed through newsagents, think there was one in the past that was tried, but can't remember much about it

I thought the programme was really excellent and as Paul M I think said, it's worthy of a CC semi final in terms of presentation and content. I also like to read Kath's column as we don't get her take on things very often. It's a massive challenge in the era of the internet to get timely and exclusive stuff out, but the club have done really well here. Will probably buy one next time and see what that one's like.

I wonder whether, if they did a magazine, they might be better getting subscriptions and mailing them out TBH. Cheaper distribution route than paying margins to retailers.

The problem with a magazine, as you've already alluded to, is the saturation of content. With the website, programme, HDM and a magazine, there would be a struggle for each outlet to have exclusive and fresh content.

Another great effort hats off.

FC Voices have put the idea of a magazine to the club on several occassions but the outlay and logistics of not just putting it together but sellling it and distributing it are massive and would be a big drain on limited resources. The club want to have a go at a traditional match day programme and this one was excellant particulaly kaths bit!! Her comments have been mirrored in the RL Press this week where she said that our season ticket sales made us the most commercially successful club in the comp! I don't think that there is any doubt that we have sold more than even Leeds this time around!

I reckon they still have done 9k TBH, there is still the restriction on the south stand

I'm sure your right and Wigan have done just short of that we must be on around 9,200/9,300 I guess!

Nah, if it was 9300 for us we would have been told, i'm sure of that, 9100 i reckon for us (which is good, and dont think i'm arguing over 200 passes!)

Stopped buying programmes years ago as they were just full of Shoppacheck ads.lol
After looking at the one from Friday will probably start buying them again.Really enjoyable reading throughout.
Well done FC looks like this is something else we have improved on.
Now I haven't Bought a pint at the KC for a few years so maybe they should give a few of them away next.

Just been told, there were loads left at the end of the day, prob 1000's.


Shame really

Thats a shame should have had the ticket staff giving them out at the ticket windows its easy to do and at least they would have all gone!

the programs will be given out at schools ect my son often comes home with programs and posters ect from hull fc comunity team
