I genuinely don't know how they've dared to do it. But they have and will no doubt get away with it. And no doubt plenty of people will pay the extra £2 and it will make Fev some money so they'll do it again next time. Personally I won't attend again. A club only gets one chance to try and rip me off before I give up on them (with the exception of my own club who unfortunately I can't give up and have to let them rip me off every season....)

A friend of mine had if clarified with Featherstone earlier. It's definitely the stand behind the sticks (that Bulls were in last year) and the new small one just to the left of it, that they're going to rip you off for. The old stand ("Community Stand" on the back of the ticket) and the stand at the opposite side (next to the bar and other facilties) you can still sit in without having to pay the extra £2.

How much is it to sit down at Odsal?

You have been ripping championship fans off the last 2 years, got to be by far the most expensive ground for a seat and a pie in the league

Well I ain't paying their surcharge so it might be one empty stand and everyone else trying to cram into the remaining space. Doesn't seem a very well thought out idea if you ask me. It will confuse a lot of people on the day as well.

It's not the same comparing it to our more expensive entrance fee, difference being you know how much it is before you buy and you either decide to or not

Ideal situation for me would be for everyone to refuse to pay it. Especially if it's getting anywhere close to capacity and health & safety says they have to use the stand. What would they do then? They couldn't force people to pay extra.

I don't understand people comparing it to Bradford's prices or other clubs that rip you off too though. If your next door neighbour murders someone, does that means it's ok for you to too? I don't see anyone defending Bradford's prices, most of our own fans are annoyed at those too.

Couldn't agree more. I won't be paying the extra 2 quid. They will have a problem if H&S say something and also may have to que to get the wrist band which is a pain in the booty

Explain to me what that's got to do with your club upping prices after tickets have been sold.

Having mentioned the food, I've got to admit that I never actually buy any of it. It just looks and smells good. Eating cheating and all that.

The same price as that advertised when you bought your ticket.

Although your arms start to ache after your fourth.

Gets a bit pricey when you buy a round of those things ha
