I laugh because I cant believe there are people on here who are actually going to pay £60 for little benefit just because they are told it is a good idea!!
I suppose they will have a nice membership card though, that will help pull a bird or get into Pozition no doubt, real status

| Why not just give more fans the opportunity to become shareholders?
I'm proud to be a shareholder even if i have no say in what happens at the club.

I'm going to hold mine while rocking back and forth, watching games on teletext.
Assuming the brochure and details on the website are accurate the 'roving' membership is fantastic valuable - so fantastic I wonder if I have misunderstood or there has been a mistake. That certainly doesn't seem to be about profiteering.
Now, whether or not the pass savings on the normal membership are being inflated by increasing the cost of the full price season tickets, there is more to membership than than the warm glow of a charitable donation.

Maybe it is a fantastic brochure, however I am yet to meet anyone who will be paying it, only people who are quick to say "**** that, I aint stumping up even more cash"
Maybe Hull KR fans were the wrong people to aim such a brilliant scheme at, after all they have bills and stuff to pay.

That would offer even less of a return. Unless the club broke even (which is something it should aspire to), shareholders would have to shovel in more cash every year, or see their shareholding diluted, becoming increasingly nominal.

| Season ticket prices frozen at the discounted 2009 price for members for two years was the point which swung it for me.
The Roving membership is a knock-out an' all - I hope it doesn't impinge too much on my mate Nigel's dvd market and the JRs Guess the Points (link in sig)!

£260 notes?! To quote my very good friend, Reenyrobin, "Sweet baby Jesus and the orphans!"
FC's most expensive seats were £215 last season and we had until 31st December to pay for them. I know you get better rugby to watch, but still.

That may be the more pertinent point. In slight mitigation, with membership you get two years for £480, plus the 'nominal' renewal fee.

I fail to see the attraction and think £260 is very fair for the Roger Millward Stand

| Quote ="RoversTrace"Sad to say but unfortunately the Hull fans taking the p on here are quite right. I personally feel like i am being blackmailed into becoming a member. We really can't afford to lay out £120 for the two of us, plus possibly for our 16 year old daughter, the only way we could do it is by putting it on credit which I really don't want to do. Times are very hard for many of us. I'm seriously thinking it's not even worth me getting a pass next season, there'll be no benefit. I'm already beginning to feel like a second class fan and it's not nice.
Had it been Hull who had launched this scheme, we'd all have been laughing at them for being held to ransom by their board.'"
I do feel very sorry for fans like yourself. This is obviously a ploy to bring in cash fast but there must have been better ways of doing it other than at the expense of the true fans of the club

This season and last it's been nice and quiet. A good place to sit in peace and contemplate life's big questions. There's also entertainment in the form of the "Crossbar Challenge". I bet that's the sort of "added value" stuff Rovers manager's banging on about - you can't truly put a price on it.

I spent last Friday sat on my own at half time counting salford fans, that is a true story.
I then read a few of the sponsors names on the back of the chairs I was sitting behind and then spent a few seconds testing the cushioning on the seat compared to the spare one next to me as they appeared to be different thicknesses.
I was wrong, they felt just the same.
Due to boredom I went to the concourse, grabbed a pint, had a quick chat with a mate then went back and watched the second half.
Next time I am sitting with our lass, at least I will have someone to talk to

Club members get first choice of where they sit/stand.
If all the people who bought passes for the North Stand this year cos they couldn't get in anywhere else decide to join 'the club' and then decide they want a seat in the RM stand, I can see a few upset people who have sat in the same seat for years when they are told they can't have their seat next year. Unless of course all those people are also members of the club.

We had to evict them 'cos we had no space on the quota. Besides, there are perfectly good local bears who could do their job given the chance.

Someone gets my two seats which I've had for ages they can kiss my money goodbye.
2500 club members do not go into 6500 season passes, how can they give away reserved seats that pass holders are going to renew. These other 4000 people are Rovers bread and butter as they part with good money each and every year ( not to diss the faithful who attend preferred games).
