My boss said he wanted me to come up with a plan of work for all my staff each week. I'd waste Monday mornings getting more and more frustrated. He said one guy should be able to do all the inter-company reconciliations in 20 minutes. I showed him one of them and he said that shouldn't take long. I said he has to do more than write it out he has to work it out beforehand. He still didn't agree so I said if you think it takes 20 minutes can you show me but he refused. If I wanted something done quickly and my staff said it couldnt be done that fast I'd tell them to give it to me and I'd do it. Anyway this guy came up with a plan for the week with very little input from me because he'd argue with everything I'd say. An hour later he came up to me and said he needed something done and I pointed out it wasn't on the plan and he looked hurt. I'm happy to flexible but I am resistant to plans that have no bearing to reality. So many times management spend weeks coming up with budgets or cash flow forecasts and I point out they are ridiculously optimistic. Later I point out the actuals are wildly different and their response is: "Well they were only budgets/forecasts" and I point out that they devoted weeks of their time to producing worthless numbers.
I used my Hull City account on the phone and they said I didn't have sufficient privileges but I did when I tried the website!
try going through the activate account route, i was getting the same until i tried it the other way and this lead me straight to the purchase site
I've talk to a lot of people today and I've been told that Hull City ticket office and Ticketmaster have given out duff information. They seem to want to say anything to get people off the phone. I don't think they seem bothered about selling as many tickets as possible.
Even Arsenal allow a real General Sale eventually I think our membership scheme is aimed at lowering attendances as much as possible TBC and price on application gives the impression they haven't thought it through
with a sensible ticket sales plan I think we could have sold all the tickets I remember when there was a lot of infiltration at football the police would ask fans who the reserve left back was or something similar we could sell tickets face to face all week without a problem
In theory I havent a problem with the system adopted- it seems best way of rewarding fans who have at least paid to see a CIty game in the recent past, and of avoiding major incursions by Sheff Wed fans- BUT it doesn't effing work properly. It certainly wouldn't accept my perfectly bona fide client ref no and ONLY worked (perfectly well I admit) when I borrowed a friends season ticket ref no.
If all City fans can get tickets I'd rather other people from the Hull area could buy tickets rather than have empty seats I know you can say they just have to ask somebody who is a City fan but why make it hard? I could stand on Bunkers and spot an away fan (without colours even!) so it shouldn't be too difficult to recognise them from a bit of chatting to them if they tried to buy tickets
Yup. Back of the queue please unless your a member. No room for part time lightweights anymore at Hull Tigers. Appleton OUT
Thinking of the Burnley away match when we needed to win by three goals to get promoted. We scored our second with 20 minutes to go and then hardly had another attack. It was weird.
If you're having trouble e-mail James Mooney. Seems a lot of people are foing that on the internet [email protected]
I've not counted them one by one but all the blocks on the lower tier are either completely sold out or limited availability barring the two making up the family zone (what a **** ****ing place to put the family zone by the way. ****s.) and more and more blocks on the club wembley and top tiers are turning orange. All blocks on all tiers behind the goal are about gone as well as most down the sides.
At about 4 pm I couldn't get any tickets in the tunnel side or right behind the goal. I couldn't get any tickets on the side opposite the tunnel except for high up and a few in the areas just above the middle tier which I went for. Most of the tickets available were in the corners.
