    "I should never have got the way I did. I can only blame myself for that."
    Some honest words from Andy Cook about coming back a lot fitter after being out of shape last season ... #bcafc

    As a professional sportsman you shouldn't have got out of shape but understandable with his injury and playing for Derek Adams both depressing situations.

    Also implied in that article is that he didn't feel he needed to try as hard to keep his place in the team last season, because he knew the competition up front was poor. Probably became a bit complacent about that, which is another depressing situation to be in.

    I can't see there being anymore than the usual 4,000ish. Hull have only just sold out their first block so not a lot of interest from their end. Still plenty available with all blocks on good availability so I don't think there will be a sudden surge of tickets bought.

    So why did the ticketing website ask you to select your seat?
    I selected my usual seat in C block, believing that it was now reserved to me for this game. Now it looks like I'll have to get there early in order to be sure of getting a decent seat.
    This is miss-selling.

    Never seen this happen at City before, but there was a similar situation in the away end at Rochdale a few years ago. People had tickets with seating allocated but all the pay on the day were told sit where you want it’s unallocated, caused quite a bit of friction

    That happens on many away games. Nothing new.

    We've actually booked and paid for the same seats that we have for our season tickets in the Sunwin.
    How can it be unreserved seating when you can select your seat?
    Tickets also show seats reserved.

    It’s the same everywhere not just at City. First round cup ties don’t attract many, just check other clubs gates next Tuesday, they’ll all be well down on a normal league game. FA cup will be the same in early rounds.

    Tell that to two fat ones that wander round my garden looking for the tree they once lived in (after I cut it down). It's starlings that have gone. Remember the millions that used to swoop over the City Centre back in the 70s ?

    That’s my understanding, yes.

    So arrive early if you want your beloved seat(s).

    I don’t think the club see it as a problem, as both stands will be circa 50% full. However, those who have purchased a specific seat might be a little disgruntled to find that actually it’s a free for all. Namely, the 346 seats sold in block C - Main Stand - if Jamie-boy from Canterbury who purchased his seat in block F wants to move more central, he can do.

    Not great, I know.

    I rang the ticket office. Seating for the Hull game is unreserved. The seat numbers on the tickets mean nothing.
