But they can't complain when it doesn't sell out.
But at the same time hull took the option of the south to get more tickets in an attempt to cater for more of your fans and also earn themselves a bigger cut of the sales. Arguably it's also in
your club's best interest to sell the tickets at £18 for that reason.
Rovers were and probably still are quite happy to give you half the golf stand at £21 a ticket, but when your club wants the south and is quite happy to get the rake off from a full price ticket, why should Rovers lose out by making the tickets less than half that price?
Value for money wise, I couldn't agree more - it's poor, but until we get the north stand built, it's a compromise that both clubs agree on.
