    Prefer Hull like, bastard of a trek down to Brighton, I did it last time just to have a look at the new ground and we all know how that went.

    It's a great chance for a Wembley semi, and I guess Hull & Brighton feel the same.

    Maybe some of the folk without cup final tickets might fancy the trek, get some loyalty points for a potential second Wembley trip (and third, if we made final..)

    Cracking city Brighton mate, be a good weekend away day, the last one, of course, involved a flight home from Malaga, midweek, to lose.

    Bad memories not to be revisited.

    Perversely, it probably cost less (about €120 plus ticket..) to get there from Spain than it would from Gateshead.

    Entitled to 15 % of capacity for quarter final

    Not sure of capacity's though

    Brady????

    Brighton Capacity 30,750 = 4612

    Hull Capacity 25,400 = 3810

    Tell me smug ,what does gus do in the next round of the fa cup , does he play your so called reserve players again because our battle against relegation takes priority or does he play his strongest team in a quest to get to the final,the way i see it is he played the later in the capital cup so why not the fa cup ..

    You'd think we'd get the rest of the usual away end so we'd fill that section behind the goal <ok>

    Win/win mate, justify it to the other half that way, happy days.

    I'd think Hull will give us that whole end, about 5,800 (confirm Brady?), but then again they might actually have some fans wanna see a quarter final.

    Brighton would be standard allocation, as they'd easily sell the home tickets.
