| Quote UllFC="UllFC"The problem with the pricing is people have seen the highest price tickets such as the ridiculous £70 at Hull and Saints and then bad word has spread and people then just think 'I won't bother then'.
The stadiums they are playing at are modern grounds with good views in all blocks, there simply isn't a need to pay the premium to sit on the half way line. There's too many price categories they only need 3 at most, one price for behind the sticks, one for down the sides and then one for the padded seats/corporate.
And while I appreciate they have a difficult job of not ripping off the people who booked tickets 2 years ago, a reduction in prices for the cost of living crisis would have gone down well on the PR front, instead they've stubbornly stuck to their guns and now appear to be in a trench they can't get out of now.'"
They did reconfigure the seating plan for St James park in the run up to it to make more category E seats available, they could do something like that for the remaining games as they haven't technically reduced prices, just reconfigured which areas are which categories, so you could downgrade more areas of the kcom to from grade c to D and move those who paid for C into another part of the ground.
All tickets for tonight's game are only £20.21 and £2.21 for concessions...so the crowd will be a good test for the theory of those saying ticket prices are too high.

Again though its the cost of getting to a game and the fact people will have work the next day, that will put people off. Also got to factor people who will have gone to the opener and booked finals tickets, not alot else left in the pot for most people. Id go tonight if it was on my doorstep but it isnt so ill watch on tv in the comfort of my own home, I suspect most will be the same.

Tonight's game will be a good bellwether yes as Donny isn't an RL heartland and it isn't a prime fixture. One of the Donny games was actually down to be a weekday afternoon during school holidays, but that was another thing that had to change with the years delay.
One factor that we have to consider compared with 2013 is that every game can be streamed whereas in 2013 it was really only the England games and Final on free TV the rest was on Premier Sports.

Only British RL fans would sit and complain from their armchairs about not enough people buying tickets so that they can sit in their armchairs and it look good on TV
Whilst offering the age old answer to the issue of attendances of "Give tickets away", "Give them to school kids", "Charge half the price and get twice as many in" solutions that have never worked.

| The two local amateur clubs in Donny took a load of kids to the game last night. I'm assuming the cup organisers worked with them.

| They gave a certain number of tickets to essential workers through a ballot.
