' Beam back of games live at our stadium '

Mon Sep 14, 2015 5:42 pm

During the meeting with the club last Saturday it was agreed that there would be a live beam back at our stadium at a cost of £10 a person for some away games this season

The distance away games on a Tuesday night this season are at Hull, Middlesboro and Leeds and these three have been chosen....as a special offer the club have said that they will put a promotion on....The concept is that by sending us in a picture of a Hull stub from tomorrow night you’ll be entered into a draw to win ten tickets for the Beam Back in January.

Please tell me the hull stub is some kind of joke :lol:



After all the fuss over the hull stub 6/7 years ago lol.


Great idea mind. Will certainly be taking advantage as am unlikely to travel to those games

It's actually a play on the old joke but a serious offer, negotiations with leeds and boro are ongoing but Hull have agreed to beam back...both clubs have to agree to make it happen

Fair play to both clubs, but at the same time I hope we can take a good following :thumbright:

Any news on Leeds tickets yet? Hoping to go up with a mate from work who's a Leeds fan.

I thought £10 including food was pretty good, I'm quite tempted !

At least they're trying things.

I thought beam backs were only ever an option if the away tickets were sold out.

The home team can put a stop to it if it stops ticket sales and it will for the distance games.

Always wanted this since technology has allowed it.

I reckon it would be worth showing all away games for a season. Personally I don't think it would effect away attendances and I certainly think it would attract a lot more people to come to the stadium.

Good idea from the club

Won't stop those wanting to go going, club get a bit more money

Why charge? Disgraceful.
Its all about money with modern football. This is the thing I hate.
Our club is so far apart from its fans.

Think this is a great idea. Id love to go and watch it (as I did in the local pub when in the PRem) for away games I couldnt go to.

£10 per game is a bit harsh though I feel, maybe nominal fee of £2.50 and then have cheap food available, bar open etc. This is a v good idea however

Sorry to come across like a moaning old fart but Hull are only charging their fans a Fiver for adults and a quid for kids.

I see this as another missed opportunity by the club to connect with and thank loyal fans.

Should be free to season ticket holders on a first come first served basis as a thank you for our loyal support. They would still make a profit or at the very least cover costs on drinks sales alone.

What an excellent opportunity to give something back to the loyal fans who have put up their hard earned cash up front to support the club this season, now sadly missed all in the name of what, a few grands profit for a club owned by a billionaire.
