I think his point was that city selling 50k shirts was optimistic, being that they did not sell out the KC for Man Utd, not the away game. And that was £25 against the biggest team in the land.

Hull City selling 50,000 shirts is an impossibility:theres more chance of Rovers building a new North stand
Hull city v Man u did sell out and could have sold thousands more.

Look for a second hand Bo55 tgr reg plate coming on the market soon....

well it does seem to repeatedly happen, all 3 clubs financial history is littered with shady characters and stupid decisions.

You don't seriously believe that Adam Pearson actually owned City do you?

The game certainly was a sell out because I know of people that rang to get tickets. You may have been offered some, but it's a fairly safe bet they weren't offered by the club, but by someone that had already paid for them.

Tomorrows game is also sold out with City fans having to get tickets in the home stand. Again, any tickets you're being offered will not be being offered by the club but more likely corporates.

From a club that can sell out in their own City, to try to say 4 tickets being available (despite being already sold)is an issue is laughable.

Nope i paid for my 2 at the ticket office HTH

Usual nonsense from ill-informed rugby league fans. Every single available ticket for the Man Utd game was sold. The reason for slightly less atendance than another couple of games was the police and ground safety officer insisted on less tickets being sent to Man Utd because they refuse to sit down. Why that should make any difference is something they will have to explain. Again all tickets have been sold for Saturday. How many times do the rugby clubs take 3,000 away (and how many would they take if they were having to pay £50 a ticket seeing as they complain about £20 being too expensive to see a game on the other side of Hull and only take 600 for the biggest derby in the universe and everywhere else)? If they do then a lot of the home fans myst stay away as the attendances don't seem any different to wehn they are playing other clubs so either other clubs take as many, home fans don't turn up for a visit from the two "world-famous" Hull clubs or somebody is exaggerating.

You could well have done, but obviously that would have been before they sold out and doesn't seem to be two of the four you claim to have been offered later, so I take it was right that they were ones that had already been paid for.

Just a guess, but are you one of those Hull born Man U fans people laugh at? Funny how they don't apply the same logic and support Salford RL isn't it?

You really need to take a

I dont think you actually know how to talk common sense so i will just ignore your ill informed comments; you,ve obviously been getting a bit wound up by some City fans so i will take pity on you.

1. Nowt to do with FC
2. Pending legal action makes this topic potentially dodgy
3. It's City troll bait

Ergo - locked.
