I'm pleased to say that there doesn't appear (although I'm probably wrong, I have very little patience) to be a way to get the 25% discount online.

I won't be going to 4 of the regular season games, so I thought that when I renew my pass on-line I would take up the 25% offer. You are right the website won't allow it (unless I also didn't have the patience to find it.)

It looks like if you want the deal, you have to request it in the shop. I wonder if they have a special naughty boys queue so "real" fans who pay full pops, will know and can sneer and throw things at the cheapskates.

I bought a blue hoodie XL last season online and received a white babygrow a ladies t-shirt size 8 and a mug

You could have used the white babygrow as a posing pouch and the size 8 ladies t-shirt to flatten your man boobs (just).

Hang on to the mug. Any fine china with "Hull KR 10 years in Super League" on the side will be trading at Sothebys for at least a grand in 2050.

By way of curiosity, do we have an online shop? I've never got it to work. I usually ring the shop weekdays in the afternoon and any one of the helpful staff bag it up and send it by parcel post to Pickering.

I still have all three items the mug joined my silk cut challenge plate mug in the cupboard my partner didn't want the t-shirt as she has zero interest in any sport and I'm waiting to give the babygrow to someone

No naughty boys queue. The offer from the club is to people who cannot afford the full price. Fortunately, for the finances of our club, most fans have chosen to pay the full whack. You obviously choose to pay less because you will miss some matches, fair enough but why make such a big issue of things? If you cannot sort things out on line just give the club shop a ring and they will sort you out with equal politeness whichever option you have chosen.

I suspect from the unpleasant remarks you made you are actually feeling a little guilty about your decision.

My comments were only tongue in cheek I assure you. Sorry if for some reason it riled you up!

I think the initiative from the club has been very clever and has really helped to galvanise the support base and the proof has been in the number of passes sold already and also those who haven't taken the discount.

Your last line is a bit of an over reaction here, Keith. I certainly saw the tongue in cheek irony of Rover and Out's post. You need to plead guilty to a sense of humour failure on this occasion.

Amazing to see you've sold so many season passes already! Great work! Should be a great season, seems to be more competitive each year! Can't wait to come to your place in Round 1 Hope we both finish top 2!

It's not all bad in the Championship! Makes a change going to some of the older grounds, places some of you may never have been before too? Also get as many fans to Blackpool as you can! It's a great weekend!

After spending half the last 20years in the lower echelons of RL I thought their wouldn't be many of the grounds that would be new to Rovers supporters and to be fair the only one I can think of is Bower Fold were Oldham play.

Toulouse Olympique XIII play at the Stade Ernest Argeles and IIRC we played there in 2013 beating Catalan with a very late try 21-22. Maybe Swinton Lions ground at Sedgley Park could be a new ground Swinto moved to Sedgley park in 2004 prior to us joining SL. They've since played at a few grounds but now returned & Rochdales stadium is Spotland renamed.

I get annoyed when so many people on boards take every opportunity to run down our club. Obviously they do not get everything right, we are supposed to be supporters but I do wonder at some posts. It then becomes difficult without knowing the person what is behind the post. If you post tongue in cheek maybe a smiley or something will make you intention clear. Sorry for the misinterpretation.

Did you see it before or after Rover and Out's reply? I will be more impressed with your intuitiveness if it was before. Then we will never know for sure looking at the times of the posts will we?
