It seems to be a bit quiet over there on season pass sales though, come on Mrs B, give Rovers a rest for a day or so and let us know when you reach the 5,000 sale, i know they were hopeing for it last weekend, but surely with the weather improving in West Hull, it will be bought this weekend. Our Pass sales will be down year on year, I think that's clear. It's disappointing and a concern. There is a thread on season passes on the FC board where people are debating the reasons for this at length. All of which has nothing to do with the fact that Rovers pass sales are more than 500 down vs November 2008, despite making your biggest signing of the SL era. Clearly you're on track to break records, but that's another 1400 passes to sell to break last year's total, which is quite a few.

You're struggling here, aren't you?
November 2008 Rovers had sold "more than 6000" passes
November 2009 Hudgell says online that pass sales are in line with the previous year "give or take a few". Not a few hundred, you'll note.
December 2010 Pass sales of 5500 are declared an increase vs the same time last year.

Really?

Prove it hun.

Our Pass sales have been up year on year, I think that's clear. It's not disappointing and not a concern.

Your Pass sales will be down year on year, I think that's clear. It's disappointing and a concern,(but not to us)
Hulls pass sales are more than 2500 down vs December 2009, and that's another 4500 passes to sell to break last year's total, which is quite a few.
There is a thread on season passes on the FC board where people are debating the reasons for this at length.
Well, why don't you go on there and voice your concerns where people might be bothered about what you think instead of Trolling on here every day, where quite frankly, you've become tedious and people really arn't concerned about your concerns...

Amen.

We can cope been a few hundred down I wud be worried if we was 4000 down, looks like Sir Rule will be giving away even more free tickets to make the gates look good yet again next season.

Please discuss Hull FC's pass sales on the Hull FC forum. Ta. They have different deadlines and I suspect the apparent doom and gloom is partly to set up one of those 'timely boosts', so tread careful like.

November 2009 Hudgell says "Figures for season pass sales are comparable with last year at this stage give or take a few." Comment at 6.24: http://www.coveritlive.com/index2.php?o ... 66d&ipod=y Now, 2 weeks closer to the season starting, a figure of 5500 is stated as an improvement vs the same point last year. Are these 3 statements entirely consistent? Don't have a go at me, just reporting what's been said by club representatives.

Are Rovers selling passes for the "extended bit" of the east stand or will that be an as and when basis?

Hello Mrs B. I don't post very much but I often read whats been put on here. It always puzzles me as to why you are on the HKR forum? Why are you so interested in the HKR forum. If us HKR fans would like to take what the chairman says as good news then why try and put HKR down at every opportunity? No offence meant by this but you just baffle me sometimes.

Are you a closet KR fan?
