Pricing is an argument we don't need when visiting Hull FC. The KC is one of the best stadia in Superleague, it has a great atmosphere because of it's 'bowl' shape and the facilities are 2nd to none. There are far, far worse stadia in the league.

No. Just flagging up the fact that at grounds with good facilities you pay more particularly after Brafdord fans were having a go at us last week about our prices.
Despite that IMO there is an issue about pricing in the game both at SL and international level where last season was the first drop in attendances overall since SL began. I would rather cheaper prices and get more people through the door. Very few SL stadia get anywhere near their ground capacities. I would like some initiaTIVE betwen the RFL and the clubs to do something to encourage more away fans to games. I really hope we do some specials for the Quins, Cats and Crusaders games to get more punters through the door.

An adult can get to watch us for £18 if pre-buying their ticket and this compared very well with most other sides in the league regardless of facilities. Wakey and Leeds are both dearer than that for example and our facilities are ahead of theirs quite comfortably IMO.
If London is Athens, Yorkshire is Sparta, a tougher community and proud of it.

Not able to make this as I have prior arrangements and I'm gutted. I Love going over to Hull lots of banter and some great set of Hull fans. Word of warning from Brighouse its 50MPH to white rose then just as you reach M1 its 50 MPH just pass the Rothwell turn off. So you have been warned to set off a little bit earlier due to traffic.
