Nothing at all to do with that, Bought a pass for convenience, I don't see how HKR can make this run smoothly.

I have emailed Mike Smith and voiced my concerns about playing at the KC, they are:
- Over zealous and high-handed stewarding; - not being able to stand; - cramped seats; - poor and bloody expensive refreshments; - not being able take a beer into the arena; - and last but not least, a bloody-minded attitude of not wanting to line their pockets.
With all of these points in mind, I have asked Mike to talk to the Board and consider playing the game elsewhere. I actually agree with slammers suggestion on the HDM threads- playing it in Dublin. Anywhere but the KC.
The 1980s just rang and asked for their attitude back.
