Club makes massive mistake! Ticket prices to rise again! : Tue Sep 30, 2014 6:10 pm  

Admission prices will be rising by £2 in 2015. Prices per one match are as follows:
SOUTH ADULT £17
SOUTH CONC £12
SOUTH STUDENT £9
EAST ADULT £20
EAST CONC £15
EAST STUDENT £10
JUNIOR £5

Ohh dear. I think they are actually trying for three figure attendances. Why on earth would someone pay £70 to bring a family to a game. Just when things are looking positive the club royally screws its fans once again.

What are you babbling on about now Nat?

The price of a season ticket hasn't gone up for the past three years. I think a £2 increase over 4 years is more than reasonable. And I'm pretty sure the admission costs haven't gone up during this time either

All more reason to buy a season ticket then, especially any early bird offers
If the Rugby is kak and they peddle x-Factor style music on the tannoy then its not happening.
Iron Maiden, Jam, Metallica or Marching Bands and im sold oh and some decent Rugby..

On another note, get yer season tickets and let The Dulls, and others pay £20.. or £17

I still miss Thrum Hall if ya haven't guessed.

The product has improved since last year, just like we've all been wanting and waiting for. Bigger games, more to play for.

We've only had a few decent atmospheres each year, im looking forward to some sizeable away support coming and getting the crowd more involved..
No offence to todays young uns (they haven't had much to sing about recently) but the singing at Thrum Hall was something else, and I remember the Regal Trophy final we lost, the Fax fans sang their hearts out for 80 mins. (Not sure they remembered much of the game though)

We can either:

A) Reduce prices like Bradford Bulls did. I'll call the Administrators now shall I?

Or

B) Freeze prices and prepare for Championship 1.


Tell me something that hasn't gone up in price in the last three years (apart from admission to Halifax RLFC matches). It's not nice granted but I doubt the BOD are sat there thinking up ways to hack fans off. It's a fine balancing act between funding through turnstiles/funding from their own pocket/signing the right players/signing deadwood. Without looking at the books, the projected income and not having a crystal ball for a new competition I can't judge what is the right decision. In the board I trust. ......
