I got my matchday card before the deadline so it costs nothing, does this mean I now have to buy a new one?
 
Another step in the right direction for me tbh ... a lot of water has run under the bridge and there will be many who will hold onto the dislike of these owners .. but I have to say I for one am welcoming the sudden change of direction. For those suggesting the price changes wont make them any more money .. if they increase the numbers regularly coming into games then yes they will .. more positivity is the fact the Ehab is now finally acknowledging that he has made mistakes .. we all make mistakes in life but half the battle is realising it. Credit where credit is due ... and may the positivity continue.

The membership reductions are, I'm sure, welcome. But for those buying one-off tickets (and presumably they're some of the key people to win back), isn't this a price increase, at least in some parts of the stadium? Which seems Allam-bonkers. Eg, I paid £30 for West Brom at home, this would now be £33, no?

I agree think one off games are still expensive but probably online with other clubs however if you can get to a few games but don't want a membership then these 6 and 12 game plans are good, I went to see non league York city and it cost me £17

“If you look at the work we’ve done over the last 18 months has all been about us reengaging with the fans and to fix some of the issues which admittedly we’ve created ourselves,” said Allam.

“Eighteen months ago we decided to reengage with fans. That’s what we’ve done with the crest and branding, with the return to the concession model.

“But we were still receiving some complaints from that so we decided to set up a steering group from the Supporter Committee group, which we did with seven members.

“We looked at the concessionary pricing with feedback from the fans and it’s been a process over three or four weeks. The feedback has been really good and everyone is very happy with the pricing structure. For me it’s been about the repairing of bridges with the fans.”

“It’s nothing to do with the loss of the parachutes,” he said. “We’ve had a reduction in the player wage bill to offset the loss of the parachute money. Our player trading has been really good and again that’s offset the loss of the parachutes.

“We’ve always said we want to build a sustainable model for the football club and the player trading can do so much more than a few tweaks in the matchday (ticket) pricing.

“The real reason for me is that we’ve worked so hard behind the scenes when you look at all the departments to put on a show for the fans. If we’ve got all of them with us then I think we’ve got a really good chance of a top-six finish.

“We need the support of the fans. The team needs the support of the fans.”

Still some more bits to do, but I have to say, well done Mr Allam.

They've obviously tried to address at least one of the issues keeping fans away, using this opportunity to also add disabled concessions would seem an easy fix and it would cost them peanuts.

Exactly. How many disabled people actually attend?

I've sat with my Dad in quite a few of these disabled areas. They hold roughly twelve people (please take wheelchairs and such into account).

How much money do these ****s think they are saving by removing concessions for these people?

As you say, peanuts.

I just gave you actual facts. Those enclosures are very small and you really can't get many people in there because wheelchairs are a bit like pushing your shopping trolley around in Tesco on black ****ing Friday, except you've got people in them.

The fact is, that Hull City have traditionally had disabled concessions, but the Allams scrapped them in 2012 and this season, we were supposed to revert back to the 2011/12 seasons pricing structure, but didn't for disabled fans. There's not many of them, why not take this opportunity to resolve the issue?
