Hi Folks,

Making my first visit to the Willows (had to come and do it before it parted). I'm bringing my father-in-law who isnt very mobile. Is there seating areas in the General admission areas/family stand?

Hi guys. Trying to find some coach parking for fridays game. We parked on a pubs car park last year called THE WEASTE. Anybody know if its still open ?
Or if u know the telephone number that would be great.....Theres a pint in it
Cheers.........HULL F.C. FAMILY TRAVEL CLUB..

Yeah it's still open here's the number 0161 789 1556.

Enjoy!

Cheers king....i will put 1 behind the bar for you

There's two options for seating at the Willows. The Austin Trumanns Stand along the side of the pitch, and the Family Stand/North Stand Seats behind the goals (behind where the away fans stand). I think that it costs more to sit along the side of the pitch, but that stand will be more easily accessible for someone with mobility issues as you can enter a turnstile near the ticket office and walk on the flat to the front of the stand. With the Family/North Stand you need to get up to the top of the standing terrace, and then up the steps into what is a much higher stand (with great view though). I [ithink[/i that you can go in the family stand without paying extra.

Thanks for that. Muchly appreciated.

id rather we win to be honest even if the game ends up 2-0 or something stupid like that.

True, I don't think anyone cares how bad a game is as long as you come out with the 2 points. Would love to see a good open game of Rugby though

Hull beat Warrington at the HJ and we lose 60-0 at home to them. I'm not saying it's impossible, but it's going to be tough to get a win. COME ON YOU REDS!

That's just indicative of the season as a whole though isn't it? We beat Catalans in France, yet they beat Wire at Wire, who murdered us at the Willows etc etc. I don't think you can read into that too much.

I agree it's the biggest game of the season and I do expect it to be a closely fought contest, it should give us a real idea of just how good (or bad) we are.

don't forget your pistol !!

Just a quick one, will I be able to use my junior away voucher on the turnstiles on friday?

Not 100% sure on that one, they may take the voucher at turnstile or you may have to exchange it at the ticket office, but will find out in morning & post on here.

Here's the 19-man squads

Salford: Patten, Broughton, Nero, Jewitt, Clay, Ratchford, Holdsworth, Cashmere, Godwin, Boyle, Neal, L. Adamson, Anderson, Smith, Sneyd, Gibson, Sidlow, Paleaaesina, Wild.

Hull FC: T. Briscoe, Dowes, Fitzgibbon, Gleeson, Horne, Houghton, Lauaki, Manu, Moa, Obst , O'Meley, Phelps, Radford, Sharp, Tickle, Turner, Westerman, Whiting, Yeaman.

Still no Henry, Gleeson or Parker.

I'm no longer a Junior Passholder (this is my first season as a Student Passholder) but I went to the match at the Willows in 2008 and 2009 (I think it was those years, anyway, I know that I've been twice) and on both occaisions they accepted the voucher at the turnstiles, but you have to find the correct turnstile as not everyone of them can take the voucher. Luckily, I asked a Steward and they pointed me in the right direction so you should be fine.

Depends how old you are

yes you can use the voucher at turnstile, but as posted, find the correct ones to use & the stewards will point you in the right direction.



Spoke with Henry last week said another couple of weeks, Gleeson was 4 weeks away, Parker wasn't in full training, but didn't say how long off.

Thanks for the info! I thought you would be able to, just that with their been a different ticketing policy for the game I wasn't 100% sure.

Could've done with playing Hull 3/4 weeks ago as they seem to have picked up a bit of form now. If our defence tightens up it should be a decent game though.

Hull Vs Hudds a couple years back at Hudds, I was queuing (sp?) up to get into the ground and there was this bloke infront of me, a bit stout and clearly in his mid-thirties with a bit of a scruffy beard, too, got in on a junior pass.
Ticket Officer: "So you're under 16 then?"
Man: "Yes, obviously"
Ticket Officer just gave him this really long stare and then just let him in.

Basically, if you can find an officer who can't be bothered with the hassle of arguing, you can get in on whatever ticket.
