Hull to scrap Season Tickets

Looks like Hull are going to replace season tickets with a membership scheme.

"The Championship club claim the new system could see some supporters save as much as £282. Hull will give fans the choice of three different levels of membership, with the cheapest costing £21 a month. The BBC's Price of Football survey 2015 found that the Tigers' cheapest season ticket cost £531, while their most expensive was £606. Their cheapest ticket is currently the costliest in the second tier of English football, but eight clubs have more expensive tickets in the top band of pricing. If the Tigers, currently fourth in the second tier, reach the Premier League this season then some supporters will pay £13 per match next season, while remaining in the Football League will lower that figure to £11 per game. It is understood this is the first time such a scheme has been tried by a Football League club, although Barnet, then in the Conference, scrapped season tickets in favour of a monthly non-contract membership scheme in 2013."

I can't say that I'd be happy to have this sort of scheme at Reading. I'd be happy to have it alongside the usual Season Tickets, though. The most expensive tickets will work out at £20 per game in the Championship (£51 per month). For comparison, our season tickets were £395 (£445 in Upper West) this season (£17 per game/£44 per month).
