Actually, you might not have to. If you go to the ticket office on the East Stand allocation days and show both passes, apparently you should be given seats together.
so someone in the east stand can sit with someone in the west stand in the 'east stand' wembley seating if you go to the east stand phase day?
On Sunday I was with a group of east, west and south standees. We'll be split up for the final but we'll all just be glad to be there. I'm not about the term family. I'll be with my kids (11 & 14) but won't be in the family area cos we will stand and sing like we normally do away from home. Hope there's similar minded south standers with us. The other problem with the term family is that there will still be miserable singles or couples (or even those less miserable but less able to stand) mixed in with the general crowd because they won't won't to sit with 'kids'. Perhaps the club needs to clarify that family areas are not just restricted to those with kids but that they should generally be quieter areas.
I believe so. The allocations by stands is to keep like minded fans together, but if two season ticket holders from different stands want to sit together, I think the ticket office will accommodate.
Plenty of us knock the club's organisation when it gets things wrong, so credit where is is due as I think they have it spot on this time
The club is rewarding the supporters who are season card holders and who went to the semi's I agree that it is fair as I will at least be guaranteed a seat. Block by block allocation, fine by me. But us exiles will struggle. Trying to get through on the telephone will not be easy. There is no reason for long queues, but I bet there will be.
I've emailed the club and had this reply: We will put the blocks available to each stand on the website the day before each section goes on sale. So the day before West Stand goes on sale, they will know which blocks they can buy tickets in. Then South and finally East.
The club have got it spot on. So sad that those who stayed away and the plastics wont be able to get one. The fans who deserve to be there will be there.
I think I deserve one, sadly being in Israel it makes it a bit hard, unless I win the lottery before tickets go on sale!!!
There's no way of pleasing everybody, but fair play to the club for trying to accommodate the differing ways we support Hull City in the FA Cup final at Wembley.
They will never get a formula that suits everyone but this seems as good as anything that is practical to administer, mind you i would say that seeing as me and t'missus are in the first wave
What if a season pass holder who bought a ticket for the final wants to sit near a season pass holder who didn't. You have to buy your tickets in different phases. If there enough for all pass holders why not just produce pass get ticket.
They want to prioritise those who went to the semi final. But my advice would be, the one who went to the semi - go buy a ticket to make sure you've gotten one, then exchange it when going for the ticket for the non-semi attendee if it's possible.
I think the fairest thing would have been allowing season ticket holders who bought two to get two again, as long as they fit third wave criteria... Which they must do by definition. That way you end up with the same result but can let people who were together in the semis stay together. Our four will end up with four again but not in the same place. As a season pass holder waiting for the third wave to ask for four seems daft. Good idea but not quite perfect as it separates people for no real reason.
Disagree completely. Whilst they Card Holder may qualify for the criteria, the person they're going to take won't/doesn't. You end up giving random people/semi-final day trippers, priority over Card Holders. Those that went as +1 still have a great chance of getting tickets as they are category 3. Whilst they may not be sat together, at least you're all there and watching.
