Just have food and some drinks/beers before you arrive at the KC. There's no obligation to buy food or drink whilst at the game or hand over any of your hard-earned to Allam.
The turnstile situation is a joke. After their install it was taking up to 20minutes+ queuing last season. The major flaw in their design is that they're outside on the wall, instead of next to the turnstile itself, so per person it takes miles longer than it did. Multiply that up by hundreds/thousands of people and its no wonder it takes ages to get people in.
I want a fair bit of Premier League football, 50-60k attendances and I'm never waiting longer in a queue to get in than 2/3 minutes.
Fans shouldn't have to 'get there early', they should be able to arrive at whatever time they want with an expectation of a small wait. This issue is firmly at the SMC/Allam's door and their crap scanning system, not the fans

hopefully shift a few more before then
To think you can go to a super league game for £2.50 in 2017 is unbelievable. Can't accuse the club of not trying to attract new fans to the game. Only thing is a lot of people I talk to don't know about the offer so it's down to the pass holders them selves to offer these non rl fans the chance to experience our game. Could anyone work out what the attendance could be if say 80/90% of the pass holders took the 2 for £5 offer. Most people would probably feel cheeky asking some one who has a pass for tkts but I bet a lot of people would snap their hands off if offered the deal

Let's say 8000 members. If 80% of them, which is 6400, all bought 2 extra tickets you'd get 8000 + (6400 x 2) = 20800 fans.

I know 80% is very optimistic but when you look at the price of premier league football a live sporting event for that price is something most sports fans would struggle to ignore. Obviously a Thursday night is hard for parents with really young children but 15000 should be a achievable target. There's currently a lot of cheesed off city fans who aren't attending any games who would maybe tempted to have a look even out of curiosity. What else would £2,50 buy you nowadays. Maybe now is the time to try and turn a few of them to a proper game

Forgot about half term. Just speaking to a city fan today who has got tkts off a pal. Watches SL on t.v but never been to live game. Taking his young son ( who is already pestering him for the new shirt for the night ). All it takes is for his lad to love it and you've potentially gained another 2 fans .
