Welcome back lhr, this mortgag3 must now be in the millions, even Rosler was getting fed up with hearing about it, whatever it is. Sadly I’ve heard of quite a lot with mortgages and families who can’t afford those increases; 25%, which is reality ….which you might tell to your pals on the board…it might not be excessive to you lhr with your 5 bed detached and a top end Porsche but reality for a lot is quite different Has the Club not yet identified any other ways of raising money other than from the same old fans, Sky and the LA? Genuinely a lot of people are really struggling The fans gave a third of a million and a couple of hundred thousand raised from Dupree…now not only 25% rise but pressure on to buy virtually before season end….and still no news out of the Club to the ‘owners’…strange I get you do not like our board JJR that is obvious. But on your last point I agree to an extent. Investment has raised funds which in turn fund investment into commercial sales, these are up. Our crowds are up almost 1,000 per game on average and we've made at least 200k from the sale of Dupree. The playing wage structure will lower after November as Sarge, Escare and Lannon have gone and there is no more part payment of wages. We were promised more investment in the team for 2024 yet no signings are announced it very is quiet. I have no issues paying more for my season ticket however we still have no news on signings and off field initiatives for 2024. At the very least I'd expect signings to be announced by now. |

What has happened is increased by varying amounts, rather than all going up by same amount. Also ask what is persons agenda, is someone having a go at board for not finding magic money tree, for example. |

I can assure everyone that the increases stated in my previous post are both true and accurate.
Maybe the smaller number of people in the 1873 are being penalised to keep increases down for the rest?
Carnster says price increases are inevitable. I agree but a price rise in excess of 80% for a fourteen years old in neither realistic or fair.

In Oct to Dec last year OAP 1873 £330, this year same time according to Chief £520…~58% increase…and now as owners…
It’s not about any magic money tree; if that’s what the Board is looking at…the funds always come from the same people…surely they should have more ideas by now…

But this is the problem rugby league is a dying sport it even got less from its main broadcast deal so that shows you the interest!the board have tried companies all over the area to get involved nobody is interested so what is the great ideas to make money if the club have spoken to all these businesses to increase revenue?!again it’s easy to sit behind a keyboard saying this and that go and help if you have these amazing money raising ideas as you say your an owner now!

OK still large increase, but some areas risen by a lot less then others, change in age banding etc, matches on TV, holiday season, etc. Lots of reasons to not renew if your so inclined, or as someone else said, drop down a grade if 1873 to costly for OAP. On the face of it 60-64 hit hardest, maybe because lots of speculation adults using kids season tickets, maybe adults using OAP to? Why have age bands changes, These are questions to ask rather than Yorkshire war cry "How Much". |

I’m in the West stand - I think the price increase is just over 5% - that’s ok with me. I should have gone on OAP rate this year but the goal posts have moved - but I think 65 is the standard on most other RL clubs.
I went to the game on Saturday - I was envious of the crowd Hull KR pulled in - I wish we could do the same.
Regarding freebies - commercial sponsors are more likely to support us if the stadium has bigger crowds. To support this I don’t mind discounted tickets/kids get in free (especially if we can utilise the East stand more often). The club is struggling we don’t have the backers like the rest of our competitors, realistically we probably need to increase our gates by at least 2k.
As a matter of interest how much to watch Man U? Season ticket or one game entry - I know where I would rather give my money to!
I do worry what sort of crowd we will get this Friday (shame we had the Catalans twice at home this season).
We need to attract more fans - I would love to see a 10k+ at our ground when we play - will it ever happen?

This is just over 25%. Other areas are going up by much smaller percentage. For personal reasons, I can't go to another area. I just won't renew. |

Players should get their immediate family in FoC but that is it. Don’t mind the odd round of free tickets for kids like Building the future rounds. |
