£20 for terrace tickets for the Leeds game, £25 for seating tickets.

So thats £20 Hull, London, Hull KR and now Leeds.

Seems a little steep for a terrace ticket !!!!

We should charge away supporters exactly what their respective club charge us when we visit their ground.

100% correct. We should.

In fairness at least the are decent facilties at Quins/Hull.

Leeds & KR prices are a joke.

You know the best way would be to boycott it and write to them to tell them why.

£20 x 2,000 is an awful lot of money for them to lose.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

20 x 2, then the ,000, carry the 2, add a made up number, divide by Rogue's age

£40,000 I think Bri!

Don't worry - It only seems kinky the first tiime you try it!

It does say on Leeds website that its £20 for non members for the West terrace on matchdays.

They obviously dont realise there is a credit crunch on.

FFS, when are we going to learn that we need to be charging the same prices as everyone else for away fans.

But to be honest i would still pay £20 to watch a rugby match, than pay £40 to watch wendyball

Same here.

But when we charge £16 for a seat in a modern stadium with good facilities and a roof, then you have the likes of Leeds charging £20 for standing up with no roof and burger vans as catering it does make you wonder why they charge what they do.

Cue Smart Alec Comment re "World Champions"!

Choosing to ignore the honest truth that of they were bottom of league etc they would still be charging the same!

What excuse do Hudds/Hull Kr/Saints/Wakey/Cas (Not sure about Salford this season)etc have?
