Hull City's play-off hero Dean Windass will face his former non-league club North Ferriby United in a pre-season friendly on 14 July.

Windass joined Ferriby after his release from Hull as a teenager but was then re-signed from them by the Tigers.

The match is being held in honour of former Hull keeper Billy Bly who played for the club in the 1950s.

Ferriby chairman Les Hare said: "It is great for us to be hosting a Premier League team in pre-season."

Such is the anticipated interest in the game that Ferriby have made the game all ticket with adults paying £8 and concessions £4.

It was Windass' goal at Wembley that gave Hull City a 1-0 win over Bristol City in the Championship play off last month and sealed their Premier League status for next season.
