    agreed, i want to sing my ****ing mouths content out, if i was drunk and got told to sit down, i'd probably end up arrested again.. not good but,, if the name change is accepted, i wouldn't care tbf
    would being thrown out from wembley, effect attending hull city home games?

    i have a rather outrageous plan for the last game of the season if the name change does go ahead though, i won't care if i get banned

    I was quite low down behind the goal in 2008 and I thought the view was ****e , maybe up on the side is better ?

    Was up in the top, on the side. Good view but steep.
    Will be more than happy to be sat up there again this time, and hopefully again for the final.

    I was sat in the Red zones for the play offs and bit annoyed that they won't be available again. Much prefer sitting side on, even more so at Wembley. Went to an England game in the upper tier side on and the view was good did it again behind the goals and i wasn't a huge fan.

    Think it was when we beat Israel or someone similar 3-0 one of Gareth Barrys first games back in the squad. Cracking game tbf.

    Apologies if this has already been asked, but I read the ticket info on the club site & it says that general sale will only be for people on the list who have been to at least 2 games this season. I went to the Cardiff game but my Mrs bought me the ticket, I also went to the Huddersfield game but that was in the League Cup, I think I bought that ticket though. I'm back in a few weeks, so I have to go to 1 more game & she has to buy the ticket for me to be able to que up & hopefully get a ticket for the semi? Where are all these people coming from all of a sudden. It was the same in 2008.

    Do the club really need 3941 tickets for players families and corporates?

    Can't imagine there being anywhere near that many. **** knows why they need nearly 4000 tickets for a handful of corporate guests and the families of about 30 players (not sure on our squad size).

    I guess Steven Quinn needs about 1000 for his family alone.

    Some of them should be sold really. In reality we only have 28000 on sale to the fans. 18000 pass holders, of which 8000 can buy two tickets = 26000. That's where the minimum number of 2000 to go on general sale came from.

    If we take this same formula, if we reach the final there will be around 21000 tickets available to supporters. If were in the final, any non pass holders will be extremely lucky to get their hands on a ticket. I assume the club won't have any sort of decent priority system in place and once pass holders have their share they'll be on sale to any tom dick and Harry with a customer number be it their 2nd ever hull city match or their 2000th

    I think it's a great system. If we had loads of fans then I'd agree that there should be something for season ticket holders who've been to cup games to get priority over season ticket holders who hadn't. But with this system every season ticket holder is guaranteed a ticket and those who were around in the Championship get two. Perfect. If you're not a pass holder you frankly don't deserve priority for a cup game. If it's because you moved away then tough, that's the price that you paid (not you personally of course OLM). How can someone who watches on a stream from thousands of miles away expect to get a ticket over someone who supports the team every week?

    The way I read it they're doing all they can to limit the number of people going to queue in person.

    Yep agreed that's the bad bit. Reserving all the best seats seems a bit unfair.

    Cruise ships in Australia/NZ somewhere!

    There's nearly 2,000 Premier Club members/box holders, none of them are concessions and the memberships are for longer than a year, so they all qualify for two tickets. When it says 'given to', it actually means allocated to, as they'll be paying £60 each for them.

    As an out of towner I totally agree. I think I have a good chance of getting a ticket for the semi-final but those who have season tickets and go to more games should have priority. If I don't get one I shall just get the train to London and try to find a pub with some City fans.

    It would be great if Wigan beat Arsenal. It would be a lot easier for us to get tickets - if we beat Sheffield United of course!

    If it's one ticket per pass then I would think that going to FA Cup matches away would be treated as a priority - maybe NOT the semi final!

    Fair enough.

    I guess paying what they do for their season pass they earn the right to the second best seats in the house. No complaints then if that's the numbers, I was under the illusion it was a far smaller number in the lower triple figures.

    Will you be using your Club Wembley seats for this one?

    Except some non pass holders have supported the team during the FA Cup this season (that's the competition we'll be playing in at Wembley) yet they get no priority over the general public yet a pass holder that couldn't be bother with cup games this year but fancies a day out gets 1 or 2 tickets.
