    Probably keep but depends on cost , bills keep going up and still no sign of an email from work about a pay rise to match

    I’ll keep it because it’s what I do on a Saturday and for the money it’s still good value.
    However it’s getting harder to persuade my daughter to keep coming, she spends most of the game with her head in her phone. She says she’s “bored”.
    Which I understand, so anyone cancelling for the “bored” reason id understand.

    relegation might change my stance a little

    I've already cancelled mine. Unfortunately I'm on antidepressants and what we were getting served up each week had a negative effect on my mental health so I had to stop going. The medication I'm on now seems to be doing a good job so we'll see next season.

    Definitely keeping mine. My best mate Phil died last year age 65 and we’d spent 45 years going home and away, come the end he struggled to get to a game so I don’t want to waste the opportunities while I can. Also, my grandson is two, I’m so excited about taking him to his first game in a couple of years.

    Think ours will be cancelled. Travelling 2 plus hours each way is no longer attractive particularly with all the changes to fixture times and days.

    Glad to see more are keeping than not. Although it is a small sample at the moment.

    Will always keep going, it’s my club. Our family look forward to being together on match days as we have done for years.
    Ticket prices are pretty good value compared to other clubs as well to be fair, but understand cost of living challenges for families nowadays makes it hard for some.
    Biggest challenge is keeping grandson interested as performances, entertainment and results at home have been so poor last two seasons that crowd atmosphere is not that exciting as it used to be.

    Agree with Muffin the Goat. If you can, do. Don’t knock it til you try it,

    Football wise. You won’t miss it truly until you can’t go. If going is an option do it, regardless of results & performances.

    I will keep mine. At my age one of the few pleasures left. Did I just write pleasures?
    I must be a masochist.

    I'm keeping mine but not happy with the number of games that are moved
    away from Saturday 3 pm , that's my biggest gripe

    Compared to other things City membership is a relative bargain

    Understandable that some have to cancel
    for important life reasons, but shirely people aren’t cancelling because the football hasn’t been great? We’ve all seen much worse.

    I have 7 hour round trip - don't go to all the games any more but happy to keep membership as good value, helps get away tickets, happy with seat and can't really be arsed to buy single tickets on a game by game basis- having said all of that, watching ****e isn't what I find exciting - Rosieball with good players was crap - watching Walterball with average players was crap and watching Rubenball with a limited squad is a hard watch - I have no problem with Acun and what he's trying to do- we've been unlucky with injuries plus he doesn't have the money old man Allam had so we have to cut our cloth accordingly

    I won't stop going until the day I die. For me at £19.00 pm is great value. I'm at retirement age in August so it gets me out the house. I agree it's not great viewing at home atm but I'm sure that still change for next season.

    We are the club and never forget that.

    Its what I used to do on a Saturday for as long as I can remember. Saturdays always revolved around Hull City and I have a pass/membership ( which I hate) because of it. I hate the term membership because I was one of those who fought against the Government who wanted to bring in ID cards ( membership cards) for football supporters. And we won that battle, only to have it forced on us in later years.
    But the goalposts have been moved too many times. The traditional 3.00pm Saturday afternoon kick off is now a rarity. We can be kicking off at 8.00pm on a Monday night, 12.30 on a Sunday morning, in fact anytime that suits those watching at home on the telly and not a thought given for those who actually make the effort to get their backsides to the ground to actually support their team, come wind, rain or shine. And I'm getting a bit sick and tired of it. For example I will get home close to midnight on Monday after the Coventry game, and we are at home FFS. I've arrived home far earlier than that when I've been down South to watch City on a Saturday afternoon.
    So for the first time in over 50 years my decision to renew my pass/membership for next season is in doubt, and I'm not fussed which league we are in either, although I hope it is the Championship, it's the lack of consideration, the taking for granted of our support, and the overall attitude from the ruling bodies that our support means **** all to them and they can do what they like with us. So I'm seriously thinking of telling them to shove it.

    That's one thing I forgot to mention - all the inconvenient times - travelling 3 and a half hours is one thing but travelling to get there early for a 12 30 kick off and travelling across the country during a Friday when everyone is on the roads at the end of the week for an 8pm kick off and then driving back late when the Highways decide to have motorway closures and diversions make it ever more difficult to actually be bothered to put up with it which is just another reason that my attendance is less than it used to be when I hardly ever missed a game

    Will keep mine and 2 for my kids, it's cheap enough and even if we only go to half the home matches it's worth the money, but I really resent the changing KO times, esp when moved to mid week like the Cov game as it means we can't go as we live Sheffield....performances need to improve too, already this year there have been 2 games my 11 yo eldest hasn't come to as he wanted to do stuff with friends instead (one was the Leeds game the nob head) and if the **** performances continue then they may lose a customer for life

    I will keep mine as I've had a pass/membership consecutively since '83 so seen worse dross than what is currently being served up.
    Which division we are in I don't care, if there is a team playing called Hull City I will go and watch them.
    PS Be happier still in 3 seasons when I can get my pass at OAP rates!

    Not enjoying it at the moment but it's a hard habit to break.
