How many have Narwich taken and sold - if there's just 1200 left, disappointing but hardly a poor gate.

Haven't we sold all but 20k season passes? - compare this to Swansea who I believe have sold 16500 and they rarely seem to attract more than 20k at their place so why such a big deal being made of the Hull FC thing?

According to that article earlier in the thread we've sold 17,000 season passes.

Swansea's ground has a capacity of 20,532, that's why they rarely attract over 20k, 16,500 season passes is a sell out for them.
 
We tried to move the game 24 hrs later but Norwich wouldn't have it. Im football through and through but there is a some who like both, its a shame because it will affect both crowds plus its live on tv. Anyway lets get behind the lads come on City

I agree it's a shame it couldn't be moved, like you say there's plenty of people who would have gone to both.

On the plus side people who a few months ago were complaining about plastic supporters taking the seats of real fans don't have to worry anymore!

Norwich have sold their 2500 allocation, so that's 23800 tickets sold so far, not bad but it's anyone's guess how many season ticket holders inexcusably desert us for the chubby league final.
 
Too many tubby lards - can't fit em all in standard seating.

Driver instructed to go real slow over Selby Bridge and north of Donny to avoid causing subsidence.

Funny runt. Bet you either smoke or are one of them vain ****ers in the gym or both.

I know quite a few pass holders who are going to the final instead, however they've given their passes to people who 'follow' City but don't attend many games. Good on two fronts, it keeps our attendance up and might get a few of these stay away fans to attend more regularly in future.
 
That poster is ****ing embarrassing. Poor grammar, poor English - it just makes Hull look clueless (not just FC)

How the **** can that sentence get through a number of people in a company without someone pointing out that the apostrophe is incorrect English....
 
NT says he's expecting around 23,000 - segregation is now down to about 500 seats so he hopes we will hit 25,000 at some point this season.

23,000 sounds much better, but I assume he is including all season ticket holders. Quite a few will be going to Wembley instead.

We will definitely hit 25,000, sadly it will be when loads of plastics turn up to Man Utd and Liverpool.
 
I am a not from Hull but a HKR fan and hope that Hull FC win the Challenge Cup at their 3rd attempt against Wigan at Wembley. After losing heavily in 1959 and then narrowly in 1985 hopefully third time lucky may come into play.
On attendances the 1985 was played in front of 99,800 people a record for all Challenge Cup matches played at Wembley and 79,800 watched the 1959 match.

My husband was at both of these matches and would have returned for this one except for family circumstances beyond his control.
