    Whilst waiting for the return of concessions, I think having Match Cards with £3 per match discounts is a first step in the right direction. I got mine when it was free. Just a pity league regulations have forced a £12 charge.

    With new arrangements I think they need to publicise them initially outside of the website. Local radio, household leaflet drops and the press should all be considered.

    Finally they need to start ticket sales earlier so at least 2 home games are on sale at any one time.

    'Just a pity league regulations have forced a £12 charge'.

    I'd be interested to see which EFL rule states that you can give away free cards for a week and then have to charge for them, or even refers to a charge at all.

    I can't answer your question. I assumed that the league or other clubs pick up such things and they were simply told to stop or else there will be consequences. It would be interesting to know if the league have a minimum match day card sum and if so, does this apply to all memberships?

    A Match Day Card can be obtained from the club and you register with the new ticketing website. You can then purchase home matches for a £3 discount and upload the admission to your card to be used at the turnstiles. Originally they were free but apparently the League has made them charge £12 but if you pay this you get £6 worth of points to use in the club shop and £3 off all home admissions.

    Your ignorance comment is welcome as it verifies what I am saying about lack of publicity and over reliance of the Club website for information.

    With the 2018/19 season fast approaching, here’s a quick ‘How To’ informative guide on how Hull City fans can purchase tickets for games throughout the season.

    please log in to view this image


    • If you’re a Member, please keep a hold of last season’s Membership card as this is still your access card for the 2018/19 season.

    • If you have lost or misplaced this card, please call the Sales centre on 01482 358418 for a replacement.

    • If you haven’t already, please re-activate your ticketing account by following the instructions here.

    please log in to view this image


    • If your Match Card has arrived, you can now get a £3 discount on each home league match ticket.

    • If you have registered onto the ticketing website, you will receive your card before the opening game of the season against Aston Villa on Monday 6th August.

    • The Card is only active for the ticketing discount, once you have received it through the post.

    • Match Cards are now priced at £12. With this, you will receive 600 Teamcard points (£6), which you can spend in Tiger Leisure, along with the £3 discount for each home league game.

    • Please note that we have had to start charging for the Match Card due to EFL regulations.

    please log in to view this image


    • If you don’t wish to purchase a Match Card, you can still buy tickets in person from our Tiger Leisure store and Ticket Zone at the KCOM Stadium. Tickets will also be available over the phone and online, with the option to print at home or order your tickets to be delivered through the post.

    • However, this will be 2017/18 season matchday pricing and will not be eligible for the £3 discount you would receive with a Match Card.

    • Due to moving our new ticketing website, you will need to register a new account on our system if you haven’t already. Click here to register.

    Selling details for all Championship fixtures and cup competitions will be advertised on our website in advance of games. Please note that all sales are subject to availability, with dates and times of kick-off subject to change throughout the season.

    Tickets for our opening Championship fixture of the season against Aston Villa at the KCOM Stadium on Monday 6th August 2018 (KO 7.45pm) are now on general sale. Full details are available here.

    2,000 people have apparently taken up the match cards, these will no doubt be added to the number of 'members'.

    Just trying to re-register to buy tickets as stated above , apparently

    "it is important that we have your correct date of birth for games when ticket pricing is categorised by age."

    Did I miss the return of concessions as well ?

    Thanks for your reply.

    Nothing like complicating a simple procedure.

    You have to pay for the privilege of buying a ticket.

    Concessions, reintroduce them.

    Sell up, as you said you would.

    Get children off the street, putting their energies into sport, as you said you would.

    Make shares available to supporters as you said you would

    Generate those bigger crowds to bring prices down as you said you would.

    Oh & don’t go back on your word as you purported, quite animatedly, to never doing.

    #AllamOut until then nothing else matters.

    I wouldn’t give the lying pieces of **** the steam off my piss.

    Is the match card seat specific? If so won't that limit attendances (ha, more like give more imaginary people to add to the attendance)? If not, how does a fan know which seat he should be in and how does a steward check in the event of seating disputes?

    You pick a seat from those available when you buy your ticket, exactly as you would with a paper ticket, the email confirmation has the seat number on it.

    Charging £12 for that card is ridiculous.
