City win?

The actual fee that the EFL would get for the playoff final can't be too much. The real money banded about is future earnings for the winner through tv deals etc surely. In my view the EFL should call of the game, promote us and fine Southampton to compensate their loss along with the 4pts deduction.
I imagine it’s the blowback from Sky not getting their showpiece game rather than lost revenue

If we lose Acun will sue absolutely everyone.
Not if he doesn't make his feelings clear now in a public statement he won't.

If he sits quiet and plays the game,he's more or less accepted that it's a winner takes all shoot out and we're up for it?

'IF' we were to lose I can't see what reasonable argument he could put forward.In my opinion he'd need to act now by stating that we are playing the game 'under duress'...
 
Hi,
My friend and I will be visiting London in a few days, and as two huge football fans, when we saw the Hull City A.F.C. match, we really wanted to experience watching a game at Wembley Stadium. However, I couldn’t buy tickets from the website because I think I needed an account with previous ticket purchase history this season.

Is there anyone who could help me with this? Thank you.

Go on Southampton forum be a few there.

Someone did post earlier that someone was probably selling 2 tickets if you read back through the pages.

Should be possible if you look around, especially now that the KO time has changed... try the various Hull City groups on Facebook

There's always the League 1 and League 2 playoff finals happening on Sunday and Monday respectively - a nice 'Plan B' for you if the worst comes to the worst

Good luck with your search!
 
I agree about 3pm,yet once it was decided at 4.30,we adjusted and made plans for 4.30.We're now being told 3.30 for Boro/ 4.30 for Southampton?

It seems that the kick-off arrangements are being made,not with us in mind but to suit our opponent's needs.

That's just wrong on so many levels because at the end of the day we have done absolutely nothing wrong but It's our fans who are being penalised in favour of upsetting other Clubs travel arrangements....Utterly appalling treatment from the EFL!!!
How was the FA Cup final able to kick off at 3pm for a century with no problem. Back in the day fans used steam trains and charabangs to get around in. JUST SORT IT OUT

I asked a few people on Twitter, but they quoted pretty crazy prices, so I wanted to try buying them myself through membership access first. But depending on the situation, I might ask that person as well.

Thanks, I’ll also check some Facebook groups. My friend and I are coming from Türkiye, and Hull isn’t really unfamiliar to us :) Let’s say League One and League Two matches are our Plan B for now.

Would the players really not have known either?
If this happened more than once - the coaching staff/analysts will speak to players around the training ground.

Southampton midfielder Flynn Downes famously praised his manager's tactical preparation, saying: "His attention to detail is unreal. Literally every little thing, he just gives you. It makes it so easy. You go out on a Saturday and you know what you're doing, you know what the other team are doing."

<laugh>
 
Has the official Southampton statement been posted?

The terms arrogance and tone deaf spring to mind.

Whole situation is hilarious. Complete clown show all round. The evidence photo is comedy gold. Absolute love it and long may it continue. Glad it's not city though.

Talksport sugggesting the appeal isn’t being heard until 6pm today and result may not be until Thursday morning!
It'll surely come out tonight. They cant leave Boro selling tickets overnight to take them away again in the morning
