Indeed they are, but staging a concert is a little more costly than sticking a few posts up at either end of the ground?



Indeed, and, as above, the production costs are a lot higher



Agreed, and I wouldn't pay that either



"Top Flight", I think we're deluded if we think SL is anything other than a parochial local sport.



That's the problem, people put up with it so behaviour never changes.



As above, it's like motorway services, us Brits accept that the food is going to be rubbish but some still keep shelling out for it.

I look forward to reading more posts from EASTCOSTFC.

Is this Standee?



Decent catering? Is this the most snobbish RL post ever? Most people eat before going to an 8pm game, I certainly do.



And no, it's NOT expensive. Cinema is now around a tenner (and the catering is poor there, y'know) Football is £40 and over and nowhere near as entertaining.



Even when we have a "low" attendance, most clubs in the game would kill for a 9,000 gate, or even an 8,000. The club can work on getting more bums on seats with giveaway tickets, but the reality is that the team have to perform consistently to build that core-support to 12,000.

What I'm enjoying the most about this new Standee alias is that upon signing up he spelt his username incorrectly as "EASTCOSTFC", and now after I assume submitting a request to correct it with Admin, it's now "EASTCOATSTFC".

great spot

He might be from east hull, surname coats , and support fc. But then that would mean he spelt his surname wrong !

Maybe it's supposed to be "EASTCOATSTLC"



Takes old coats from the East and refurbishes them?

I missed Standee anyway, good to have him back!!!!!!!!!

Quote downtheante="downtheante"Agreeance is a word that seems to be continually reinvented and recycled. The term first appeared in the 16th century and enjoyed its greatest popularity in the 18th and early to mid-19th centuries. Since then it has fallen into disuse. Most likely unaware of the word's history, modern writers who recoin the term seem to like how it sounds, even though it adds nothing in meaning to its workhorse counterpart, agreement. The suffix ‐ance indeed is used in English to form many nouns from verbs: for example, appearance, acceptance, performance, and remittance. So while there is no rule preventing the formation agree + -ance, the coinage may sound quaint or pretentious to some people. www.dictionary.com/browse/agreeance'" Oooh, thanks for that! Love things like this. Like this word. Agreeance, [iAgreeance[/i, AGREEANCE! Yes, like that. Nowt wrong with archaic words. Gotten is another word which causes angst. Far from being an Americanism, it's a traditional English work dating at least back to the early medieval period. Gotten, [iGotten[/i, GOTTEN. You've gotten my agreeance on that. Mmmm.

I don't think £21 for an adult ticket bought individually is that expensive, however when kids are involved in your family unit it's not always easy to take them (cost) or maybe it's too late if they are young or indeed they'll get bored.

Justifying ££ when kids are involved and things are tight is a tough choice, you can do a whole day with the kids for £30 (bearing in mind £31 is an adult+ child ticket)

The atmosphere when we play great no matter how many turn up is good, when the place is rocking the feel good factor for the fans is brilliant. The derby wins, the Saints comeback, the Bradford playoff and a few more besides.

I think if the team keep producing the goods then slowly some fans will be more drawn to come back. Showing that we really are contenders and being able to replicate that next year with possibly some silverware will really heighten people's interest to maybe renew passes or at least attend more games.

It's down to Radford, the players and AP to make fans feel like they want to come and feel good at being entertained and it's VFM, not just out of loyalty

fair post bumpy

The answer to the OP's question is NO.



There will be very few Giants fans at this game.

Just thought i would get that in early before you start going on about the away support on Friday
