    If it's one ticket-per-pass; I reckon if/when tickets go on general sale the new "Hull Tigers" ticketing system online could be an enjoyable experience. Barnsley away last year was bad enough! Waited 45 minutes online to get through to the ticket page.

    Quite agree. Giving 2 tickets to a pass holder all too often ends up with the spare ticket going to a wife or friend who goes for the day out and isn't really interested. Last time at Wembley I was surrounded by people sat like dummies and tutting at the people having the day they had waited decades in some cases to come along who they regarded as somewhat uncouth and they had paid for a seat so in a seat they were going to sit.

    This^

    If pass holders are first priority, it's got to be 1 each to avoid this happening.

    I get the impression in twitter theyre going to arrange priorities and such out tomorrow looking at Ash Lord's tweets although there seems to be some idea already. The confirmation of which game is when should be tomorrow but it looks like we will be sharing the same day as the London marathon. Hopefully most of those watching that have left London before 3/4pm.

    Isn't Wembley more north London and the marathon more south London near the Thames? Just wondering like

    Wembley Stadium
    Probably not as tickets will be sold via the clubs involved to their season ticket holders and members first. If there are any tickets left after this then they will go on general sale but through the club again.

    Just seen that on the official Wembley Stadium website. A clue?

    The marathon comment is more related to transport and hotels.

    Pretty sure one of the terms you sign up to with a season ticket is the first priority on cup tickets. <whistle> (Should definitely only be 1 per pass though)

    I'm one ot those living abroad real supporters with over 45 years behind me. I do accept that I won't be a priority especially as I only get to two or three games during the season. Rest assured I will be getting the general ticket and with many of my colleagues here in Ireland will be ready to party, hopefully twice.

    Don't get why passholders are panicking?

    It's people like me who should be worried. Hull exiles who only get to pop over for 2-3 games per season. Saying that, if it is 2 tickets per pass then I'm ok, likewise if it is 1 ticket per pass I've enough common sense to get myself sorted for a ticket.

    I'm screwed should we reach the final i presume

    I'm not worried about not getting a ticket. I just don't want to be stuck at the back/top with a crap view. Yeah it's better than not going at all but it'd be annoying knowing people with better views attended one or two games and therefore had priority.

    (For the record I've attended two FA Cup games this season, one of which was today's)

    Yeah & I was saying the marathon is more south London so wouldn't effect north London that much.

    If I could afford to come over for the final, I'd be on the first plane... granted we make it of course.

    I'm hoping we get the Saturday slot. I'm back from Uni that weekend for a Christening on the Sunday...and as i'm going to be godfather i can't skip the proceedings either :emoticon-0112-wonde


    I would hope also that those who attended the Semi will have priority when it comes to the final BEFORE season ticket holders.

    I'm actually pleasantly surprised by them. I expected higher.

    <laugh> isn't the mother hoping we get the Sunday slot because she doesn't trust you and the father to be in a fit state for the Sunday if we play Saturday?

    I'm pretty sure the year we were in the playoff final our tickets were more expensive than the FA Cup Final tickets. I definitely remember there being a fuss about them.
