    I'd appreciate any information/ideas how expats can get tickets to the Final (assuming we beat the Blades). Obviously I wouldn't qualify for the allocations available to Hull City season ticket holders, unless anyone would be interested in selling their ticket. I've tried Club Wembley, which I used for our Wembley playoff final against Bristol City, but they require a 1-3 year membership costing a few thousand pounds to sell me a ticket. Sportsworld has a deal available only to people living outside the UK for 700 pounds including a one night stay at the Marriotts Regents Park. Most other agencies are 650-820 pounds for tickets only.

    The Sportsworld deal sounds the best as they are good seats (Club Wembley?) I believe. Anyone have more info on this or other deals? Any input appreciated.

    Club Wembley seats at the final are:

    Gold - £469-829.
    Silver - Dunno, the price on the website is definitely wrong.
    Club - £309-369
    Bobby Moore - £599-£1,459

    The club should have some Club Wembley seats to sell, once Club Wembley members put them up for re-sale.

    Thanks OLM. Do you have a seating plan where those seats are located.? I'd be very interested in hearing from the club if any of those seats come up for resale. Please give me a heads up if you can if that happens.

    I was going to post the same question, but not posted on here for years now!
    I've also not been back for over 4 years now and didn't have any plans too, but if we do get to the final I don't want to miss it.

    Thanks OLM. The Gold and Silver look like the best seats for full field view.

    I have a feeling this could be the only way for people that live over seas to maybe get a ticket for the final, if we get there!
    It's a shame the club don't keep a few tickets for people that live away but used to go for years home and away but then moved out of the country.

    Turn your back on the club, why shouldn't they turn their back on you?

    How have I turned my back on the club? Please explain
    I moved to Canada after leaving the Army, but I still buy the shirt every year and other merchandise, I've even got a Hull City Tattoo on my leg.

    Anyone who can afford the plane ticket back can probably afford to do what CanadaTiger is doing and spend a few hundred quid for a ticket. If not then tough.

    I can't see it being that easy. The FA cup final is a pretty big event, I can't see there being a tonne of corporates dropping out to free up loads of spaces in the first place, and there will always be demand from neutrals, not to mention if we get there our most likely opponent would be Arsenal, who have a huge worldwide fan base of millions, lots of who will be clamouring for tickets to see them win their first trophy since our lord Jesus Christ walked the earth, and will be willing to pay well over the odds for tickets.

    I think any non pass holder would be extremely lucky to get their mittens on a ticket.

    Think you might be right there, just have to wait and see what happens now, fingers crossed we will get there and I suppose there is no point in talking about it till then!

    I'm sure the club would do something to help if you contacted them.

    There's seating plans on Hull City FaceBook page in the comments for ticket information. They don't give the details for the different parts of Club Wembley but I'm sure the view wouldn't put you off if you plan on travelling from Canada again!

    Do you have a link to that seating plan Peter? I'm not a member of Facebook and can't find the ticket information on the Hull City OSC Facebook page.

    It's not the OSC Facebook page it's the Hull City AFC page.
