Bulls To Go Pay Per View?

An article which appeared on the Official Hereford United Newsblog suggests the club are looking into making the official site pay per view.

The article was posted by Skeets (Keith Hall) last night, but was removed swiftly and has not been replaced, and suggested that the club had "contacts in the specialised service areas" required to make the switch to pay per view. The "contacts" may be Keith Hall himself with the one-time PA announcer now working for both the BBC in local radio and Teamtalk Media doing commentary and camera work for Conferencefootball.tv.

The article cited Woking's recent move to pay per view, with subscription packages up to £99.99 a year, as the model and stated that a poll would be set up on the official forum to gauge interest.

When contacted the club had no knowledge of a move to pay per view, suggesting that the article was not an official piece of club news and was removed when seen by one of the more senior website team.

A move to pay per view would be a kick in the teeth for the existing official website team who have worked hard to develop the site free of charge to the club for nearly ten years, also raising several thousand pounds over time.
