According to RLW magazine most standing prices are about £17-£18 so £2 more to sit in the best stadium in the league isn't too bad really.

Reet then. I've just emailed Ian Lenagan to charge you £20 for your visit to Wigan, that okay?

The thing is that although this sounds good in practice it wouldn't necessarily work( Rogues suggested the same thing earlier in the thread). What could happen is that the away fans who are to be charged £20 in the North stand (ie Hull, HullKR, Leeds etc) could decide to pay less and pay home prices in the South , East or West stands. Just imagine that. I know that RL fans pride themselves in being able to mingle but I also have to admit that the KC with its segregation is a safer place to take the family than the Boulevard ever was.

It's also the best stadium in SL.

I'll happily pay £20 for a seat in a good stadium with an uninterupted view of the field and under cover. That covers Hull, Wigan, and Huddersfield.
At the other end of the scale Wakefield, Castleford and Bridgend should be £10 with the rest somewhere between.
If the RFL actually enforced a pricing structure of this nature it would be a big incentive for the poor grounds to improve or not be able to compete with the richer clubs.

Or we could just borrow our richer neighbours football stadium. Mind you we may not be able to play there when we need to.

Yeah they are also charging £20. KC Stadium has always been expensive but at least your getting good facilities and a roof.

Thing is at the KC Stadium they charge the away fans a higher price for food and drink than they do at the kiosks in the "home" areas of the stadium.

Now that truly is a rip off about which something should be done.
