KPW I think that will Answer your question.
also, it also looks like Hull fans who turn up and pay on the day wont be charged the extra £2 as this only seems applicable to away fans.

| Wigan being criticised by Hull fans for helping make a game cheaper and at the same time defending ripping people off, wow.

| i just dont see the logic in putting away fans off coming to your gound? for many fans hull is one the futhest away trip they will make, its often a hell of a drag on a friday on the M62 and to then be charged more than you should???? they should be encouraging fans not discouraging!!!!
business logic like this leads to rugby clubs going bust. disgrace.

thanks for the link.
firstly, the £2 extra for away fans on the day is not right, how they can justify that i don't know.
secondly, as the cheaper tickets isn't just an early season promotion to increase numbers through the turnstyles, i can't see how they can justify a £4 difference in price. i'm not sure that anything can be done about this though, given that there is nothing to stop away fans buying tickets for the other end of the ground, and as i've said in my previous posts, clubs will always try to favour their own fans whether it be through discounts, free tickets or 'season ticket benefits'.

| Quote FIOS="FIOS"Because they get to bring a friend along to the game who might not have been before who then might enjoy it and pay to come to more games, it's called a marketing ploy, to bring more through the gates you've gotta give a little. An idea some other clubs should maybe take note of instead of driving other fans away, like Hull FC seem to be doing.'"
as i say, i don't see how season ticket holders benefit from that, it's the non season ticket holders who get the free ticket, and if they pay for tickets in the future, it's the club that benefits. i'd quite happily take a £5 or £10 cut in price of my season ticket and not be eligible for a free ticket for someone else.

This is a good point but it will be interesting to see what happens when inevitably a group of away fans buy the cheaper tickets and end up in the middle of all the hull fans.
I'm certainly not saying Hull fans and away fans wont be able to sit together and behave... but it only takes one idiot.......
Fans on here say they'd welcome it... but would stewards be just as accepting? I cant see it personally.

You're just going completely off topic about something else because you know Hull FC are in the wrong and what both Wigan and Warrington fans are saying on this thread is right.
Either that or youre trying to justify Hull FCs rip off prices with the fact that Wigan gave away a few free tickets to the super league opener. Which would be stupid and yet again completely irrellevant.
Which one is it?

I'm not going off topic at all, i've said i don't think it's right for a club to offer better deals to home fans than away fans, but also pointed out that hull are not the only club doing this. That's hardly going off topic. Also, how is it irrelevant that home fans at the Huddersfield game paid £20 less than huddersfield fans, isn't that what the topic is about, that clubs should be charging the same ticket price whether you are a home fan or an away fan?

You really are digging yourself deeper.
By your warped logic, clubs also shouldn't be able to sell season tickets (I believe you call them passes for some reason), because they would be paying less per game than away supporters.
Just face it, your club has completely cocked this up. Given that Hull is halfway to Holland and it's not the most friendly place in the world, you should be setting prices to encourage away supporters to attend, not the opposite.

My club? i think you've got that a bit wrong, i'm a proud Wiganer, i've been a season ticket holder for 18 years.
And you talk about my 'warped logic' when you are the one comparing the discounted cost of a season ticket (when compared to buying 13 match tickets) to a season ticket holder getting a free ticket to a game... in one of those instances, the season ticket holder benefits, in another instance, a non season ticket holder benefits, can you figure out which is which? They are two different things.
