    Or hers, but that depends on what age a 'child' is.

    Mixing in people from the upper west is more liable to dampen the atmosphere, if that's possible.

    Well I like it. It'll save me money. As it will my mates.

    Of course I'm not one of those arseholes who misused child tickets to get in. That's who should be the object of anyone's snarling.

    Yes it'll cost some honest people more but on balance it favours the majority.

    Well played Hull City AFC. Now just try being as ****ing efficient on the pitch.

    The membership scheme will apply whatever league we're in.

    There seems to be plenty on here that would have started going to games alone or with their mates when they were 13 14 15 years old. I don't see any incentive in this new scheme to get kids going to watch ( unless they are going with an adult )

    And how many adults can go in the kids section per child? If I was to take my littleun id have to go sit on my own with a toddler whilst the rest of the group sits somewhere better (and twice as dear)?

    So could a family of three still save money? Dad, mum and one dwarf?

    What's to stop members saying tey hve children with them and just turning up in a group of adults in the cheap seats?

    Has there been any detail in how the club hope to handle these thousands of fans moving about?

    Do people get first refusal to remain in their current seat?

    What sort of man celebrates because a nine year old subsidises his ticket? Genuine question.

    Indeed.

    Kids are currently U12's, though there's also discounts in the South for U18's, so maybe they'll allow anyone under 18 to qualify for the Family Stand, I've no idea of the criteria yet.

    So me and my mate sit in W5 - always have. We take our 2 boys, both U12. Next season the cost for a father & son day out will go from circa £680 to £1200! I'm afraid that this has pretty much priced me out of the market :(

    How many season ticket holders have been displaced, assuming they all renew?

    on top of this marketing **** up, if we get promotion he'll probably apply for 'Hull Tigers' again - the guy must have been very lucky with his marine company because his business acumen and customer focus in running a football club is lamentable

    I thought it was under 13's, but above that are still classed as juniors. Some from both can go on their own, or in a large group, such as football teams.

    But ... the 'move' of home fans from E1 / E2 - North Stand 're-location' , price increases above inflation, new 'ticketing system/s, reduction in match day staff, have all worked so well & attendances are well - statistically pleasing for the Allme's

    been a pass holder for over 20 years in south stand and now i have to move, what a joke. most people sat around me don't have children where are they going to go? have always tried to back the club and the owners. but this is the final straw.

    As I travel with my 8 year old we tend not to do midweek games as he's knackered at school for a couple of days after. We buy tickets on a match by match basis. If we only have adult prices at the KC then I'd be surprised if we do home games in future. Thanks for your 36 years of support and introducing both of your kids to Hull City. Is that still our name?

    Are you all really surprised? This is so wonderfully consistent with the name-change debacle. It won't be long before Steve Bruce will be telling the media that the owners have done so much for us all, pay their money and have every right to do what they wish with their club.

    Chazz will be telling everyone who seldom attends it has nowt to do with them.

    Happy Tiger has already nailed his colours to the rotting mast.

    ¿Help The Bairns' will be the next so-called anti- Allam campaign - they will be blacklisted by the club and unacceptable as supporter group officials¿

    I sit in E10, which is the cheapest section now apparently (good view though, so god knows why they've done that), But it says qualifying restrictions apply?

    Do I have to win a penalty shoot out or something to get my seat back? I've got a horrible feeling I'm going to be moving...
