    Tickets for Hull City's next home game against Manchester United are selling fast, after Saturday's magnificent win over Premier League champions Leicester City.

    A surge in ticket sales since the weekend has seen the West and East Stands almost sold out for the eagerly anticipated clash against Manchester United on Saturday, August 27.

    Fans keen to see the Tigers take on Jose Mourinho's side are now being urged by the club to snap up tickets as soon as possible to avoid disappointment ahead of the 5.30pm kick-off.

    'If there is demand, the club says it will issue details for opening West Stand Upper Tier blocks UPP7-UPP11 in due course.' - If they let people move back into their old seats, it would be full already. Dozy bastards.

    I'm guess the tickets selling fast are by Man United fans.

    Plastics or not, this is what we need to get a bigger stadium.

    Don't knock them. It's a false argument if you want bigger capacity stadiums!

    I personally couldn't care less about having a bigger stadium.

    I would rather have a full 25k stadium with zero plastics.

    I reckon the Zlatan factor will draw in the neutrals or 'plastics', its like having somebody like Pele playing in your backgarden for anybody who loves football

    By plastics are you including the many HC fans that listen every week on the radio, or watch out for our results every week, but only go, for what ever reason, to actual games a couple of times per season? or are you just saying that ordinary people who live in Hull and like to see a good football match once in a while would not be welcome? I really dont get all this crap about plastics, they are just people like you and me?

    No, by plastics, I refer to fans who either actually support another team and/or have jumped on the bandwagon whenever we do well rather than supporting us through thick and thin.

    I thought this was an obvious term to football fans.

    If rather decrease our capacity and introduce some sort of support scheme, where those who support the team get priority, and those who like to be entertained, moan, slag off players, and tell everyone what the players/manager should be doing stay as far away from a ticket as possible.

    So a son asks his dad "will you take me to the Man U game I'd love to see
    Pogba? " what his old man to say?

    Well, if dad is a Man U fan, as long as he got an away seat, that's fine.

    If he's a City fan, the dad should've told him to **** off. <ok>

    It suppose it goes without saying. But I would rather eat my own **** than go to a game whilst the Allams are still our 'owners'.

    Add to that the fact I couldn't give a flying **** how many superstar footballers I would see...

    I'd be far, far happier to bump into the likes of Sam Clucas, Curtis Davies etc, than I would Wayne Rooney or Ibrafuckingherovic.

    Completely agree. Even though Ibra is my fave player around currently, give me Clucas any day of the week.

    Don't ya think a few might have gone to last weeks game with an eye on vardy? And come away raving about snoddy? How a fan becomes a fan is irrelevant it's if he stays a fan that's the important thing! Let the dad take his son & if he comes home taking the Piss out of his dad because he chose the wrong team then he can tell him to **** off & walk home!

    Haha I bet you would faint mate if you saw Ibrahamovic coming up the path towards you, lets face it, anything else I'm calling bullshit. If anybody wants to spot City players by the way Anlaby Retail Park Costa Coffee see them there all the time and Barmby, or you could stand at bus stop near Fields and watch them driving past

    Some fans are so consumed by their loyalty to the club they fail to see it's also showbiz and some come for the ride.

    We won't grow as a club without plastics. And a local kid who wants to see manure may become a local kid who wants to go again the week after.

    I want as many paying customers as we can get as much as we can get. Current ownership bollocks aside. Think big and get big.

    If watching Man Utd playing City develops the love of football for a little local kid who eventually wants to watch his local team then I for one don't mind. Before seeing the light back in 1970 aged 8, I followed whoever was top of the old Division 1. If a day out as a "plastic" creates a new City fan then so be it.

    Probably not, I'm such an awkward bastard I wouldn't dare even try to speak to him. I'd probably cross the road <laugh>

    Hope I can get my hands on two tickets tomorrow morning while in Hull for Man U fan I know ...hopefully in the west stand.

    She may support United but shes one of the nurses who looks after me each month.

    Anyone other Man U fan I wouldnt do it for
    But shes a special case and she wont wear anything red or cheer if they score.
