our last season at Boulevard was £8/9 for an adult to stand in the well, IIRC?

| Don't agree with that pricing policy for away fans, why don't all away fans boycott the North stand and go elsewhere in the stadium, there's no rule saying you must sit in the North stand is there?

Be a bit daft for other clubs to do that as they would then lose out on a fair few numbers from Hull. If i had to pay £25 i would not go, lets face the cheap tickets at Wembley are £21 then £25 etc so anything over £21 is pushing it for me.

How about because some wire fans pay £26.50 all clubs should charge wire fans £26.50?
I'd like to see a price structure for all grounds that rewards good away followings

Not a fair comparison, the facilities are far superior. By the reverse logic, if Hull had moved their home ground to a field on Pickering Park instead of the KC, would you have been happy if they still charged £8/9?
I agree that it is more expensive than it probably should be, but I don't think it's at all sensible to use a (far inferior) ground from 10 years ago as the starting point for what to expect to pay now.

Well you can compare Wembley for the CC final with seats similar to the North stand starting at just £21 for adults. How has our stadium become more expensive than Wembley?

Yeah but technically the North Stand is our premier stand plus our standing home fans pay the same as away fans, if your south stand attendees also paid £25 there would be less moaning from us as at least that's fair.

I can see where you are coming from and to be honest I'm suprised at the prices especially after the way our fans have been ripped off at other away grounds in recent years.

| I disagree with the policy of charging away fans more, and at the very least they need to make pre-purchase tickets for the North stand available for the same prices as the South stand (many other clubs offer discounts for ticket pre-purchases)
I also think this news takes the gloss off the 'South stand price reduction' news, yes they are saving the FC fans some money, but are simply going to fleece away fans to pay for it. Which is baffling when a key reason of moving back to Sunday rugby was the hope of attracting more away fans.

Except when Rovers are the away team, charge them more for everything, so long as they bring their own bibs

Quote ="cod'ead"Difficult when no one asked the question'"
Which is disappointing as when I called your club earlier this evening as part of your "Call a Director" scheme: www.hullfc.com/page.aspx?p=1035 I was informed that no director was available today due to the fan's forum this evening.
However the helpful lady who took my call (answered after two rings which is impressive) asked what my question was she did assure me that the question concerning the pricing of away fan's tickets was to be asked tonight and suggested I tuned in on Hull FC TV to catch the reply.
I'm guessing that the new management vetoed the question and stage managed the whole event. Even more black and whitewash at the KC it would seem.

| same price as last season for visiting fans if bought in advance
although a bit costly for away fans seeing as the south is £19, we won't be attracting the same visiting fans every other week unlike new or returning fc fans

| I think i preempted that response, top quality stadium, value for money, same as last year blah blah, truth is it's still either £4 or £6 more and the perception (and that's all people need) that they are being fleeced on top of the fact that food and drink are more expensive in the away stand.

I think the reasons for the the price difference between north stand and south stand is fair enough.
as for difference in food and drink prices that isnt on.
www.eventmanagementcatering.com/
these people run the catering and perhaps can tell you why there is a difference.

Did you miss the bit about the South Stand being discounted this season? Why should away fans benefit from an FC-fan specific discount for a single stand?
We have no control over food and drink policy at the KC and neither do we make any money from it.

Put the pet lip away. More likely they ran out of time since the question has been answered on the website today.

No i didn't but like i said a 'perception' that people are being fleeced is all that's needed to put people off.
On the food issue regardless of who is in control people still equate it to Hull FC, people will still think "sod going to watch Hull FC they rip you off"
Now if 50 people are put off by those prices even if they are £19 that's £950 and times that by 11 (exclude Cats and Broncos) £10,450 plus a programme a burger or pint and your doing yourself an injustice.
You're right why should away fans benefit, our money is obviously too good for you.
