    Anyone go to that away game when City were given a huge section of the home allocation.

    It’s amazing that game finished. That didn’t half rile the natives !

    Carlisle are not selling any online. Queue in person or queue on the phone, that queue only holds 60.

    Can not see them stopping City fans going down Midland Road to Queens Road, or parking on there.

    EXEK upper Sunwin, rumour at game today was that they were planning extra hospitality sales so would need our seats rather than the normal suites.

    What is wrong with the communication’s team at City? The messages that come out is like knitting fog!

    1. All ST holders have until Wednesday 6pm to purchase their normal season ticket seats. (Time, dates and where)

    2. All fans will be able to purchase their tickets from Wednesday 6pm online. (Times and dates)

    3. Pricing structure.

    Keep it simple when communicating to thousands of excited fans.

    Feel for those in Midland Road who are being moved when allocation could have been covered in usual arrangement. However, those who went into a mad panic and bought any old ticket and are now complaining need to have a word with themselves. The first announcement from the club said season ticket holders have until 6pm Wednesday so to go all trigger happy and book any old seat is, frankly, your own fault so you will have to get a grip and contact club to change seats.

    Yes we are up there EXEJ. Well that would really upset ppl if they did that. We have already paid a premium on those seats. But I have said that if they are not available for whatever reason I will watch on TV.

    This rings very true. I was telling @Bronco@Bronco theres a bloke who sits on the row in front of us, has done for ages. He hasn't been for quite a few home games, me the lady at the side of me were hoping he was ok. Turned out he'd been pretty ill. You build quite a bond with the people around you, i sat next to lovely guy for a few years who unfortunately passed a year or two back, really miss his sense of humour on what could be an awful 90 minutes.

    Come Wednesday evening at 6 oclock there will be 3 seats behind me available in the kop , because the season ticket holders that sit there can not make the game, i am sure that will count for a few others as well, plenty of room for everyone.
    All season ticket holders were counted today , but many were not in attendance.

    If you mean Hull in the early 90s, yes I was there.
    Quite a lively day.

    Harsh. When I read that I assumed that only ST holders could buy tickets. Ppl rushed to get their own seats but due to the glitches they had all been greyed out. So then they bought any old seats. A combination of poor communication and computer faults. Please don’t blame fans.

    Yes I was there. We had horses on the field of play to try and stop the incensed home fans from fighting with city fans.

    Yes I was pissed and pissed off.
    Sober now but still pissed off with the way our club can monumentally screw things up.

    why did they have to announce ticket sales tonight? Some fans will still have been travelling home or out celebrating getting in the playoffs.
    Why not wait until tomorrow.

    yes they’ve now cleared up the mess but it’s a mess that shouldn’t have needed clearing up.

    Because on the original email it didn't say your seat was reserved, just that you had until Wednesday to buy a ticket. So I logged on and looked at usual seats and greyed out, fair enough maybe using those for hospitality like in past for big matches so then booked five elsewhere. If the email had been clear and said you have until Wednesday to get your normal seat except those in Midland Road, I wouldn't have rushed.
