Not entirely keen on Clubs 'threatening' (for all intents and purposes) Home fans by saying they're going to just give all the tickets to the SL clubs who get them for free.
York have sold 600 and have the same article in the Press here saying if they don't buy them soon you can't have any and Hull KR are getting them all.
That's not 'having a go' at the Club per se but this free ticket malarky is clearly putting pressure on the Clubs in regards to what to do for tickets and when and who to sell them to.
As far as I am aware it is the RFL (as usual) forcing clubs to give UNSOLD tickets to the SL clubs, what a flaming cheek I say.
Fat Controller is so desparate to have a crowd these days he even makes the home club have to give free tickets to the away team and just to make sure there is a good crowd (its a numbers game for fatboy Nige, as long as it says xxxx he don't care he loves big numbers).
Obviously a SL club will have a good take up, who would not want a freebie when we are paying £15 for ths same bl**dy match!
I hate the RFL, they came up with this idea of a free CC game for all season tickets holders to boost crowds but it should be for HOME games only. As a Fax season ticket holder myself I am happy to pay for an away cup tie, I do not expect the home club to suffer just because I paid Fax for my season ticket its nowt to do with them.
