    Have not been to a game since before 1981 so I am a little confused (well maybe a lot) about buying a ticket for a game. In particular the notion of home and away areas. In my day you just bought a ticket and stood where you normally stood-just behind bunkers and if City were playing towards the north stand second half move down there-not that we were not interested in the other team. And if we went to an away game (which we did on occasion) same thing just bought a ticket-actually no ticket involved just paid you money and went in-and stood where you wanted. Now it appears that they shepherd all the away team into one section?

    What is to stop me as an away supporter buying a ticket and say sitting with the Chelsea fans??? They don't know I am from Hull, especially as "you guys" would say I had a foreign accent. I am guessing there is nothing to stop me or for that matter anyone else buying a ticket (assuming they are available) anywhere they want.

    ****in ell.

    There have been a lot or rule changes since then, keeper can't pick up ball from backpasses etc

    You will have to give your details when you buy a ticket inc postcode etc

    They will soon winkle you out if you're a thug.

    There's also the premier league, it's not division one anymore

    and we have magical cameras on the goal posts that detect if a ball passes the line, plus footballs in colour

    No smoking in the ground.

    People dressing as animals and acting camply.

    I hope you weren't laughing at the unnecessary apostrophe in the
    Hull FC poster.

    What happens if you are a foreigner do they take ZIP codes.

    Also if you are an away City Supporter do you have to wear one of those silly shirts. And if so can I get one with "Waggy" on it failing that "Bill Bradbury or Brian Bulless". I would imagine I could get some on sale with Ghilas or Zayette on it.

    If you an away City supporter, it may well be flask, blanket, tupperware and selection of crisps.

    Facepaint and fancy dress not really encouraged unless the game is live on tv.
