As such, we will boycott the otherwise attractive fixture on a Friday night to watch your team get tonked and instead save a day's holiday and get an early night! We support you!!
You don`t mean (gasp) they will be staying away in droves?

I didnt trawl right through the thread, but I dont agree at all, I feel that if a boycott could be properly organised imagine how it would look if fans who had already paid to attend game stayed away, the board would be caking it becuase it would finally show that the fans are not willing to take the cheap options anymore, and if season ticket holders stayed away it would force the club into action to get pass holders to renew.
But that would never happen becuase people are to willing to spout the loyal supporters and any kind of weather rubbish rather then look at the bigger picture.

as I said in another thread somewhere, i'm surprised that CEO's from around the world haven't descended on the FC offices to find out just how they've managed to fleece and embarrass their customers, yet still have an eager and loyal crowd ready to pay more money year after year.

Indeed, people say we have a bad board, maybe the fans are the problem. I think the sports business is unique that it is frowned upon if you withdraw your custom if you are unhappy with the service, especially at Hull FC with the "In any kind of weather" verse, Im considering not renewing next year and not buying official merchandise, although I would still travel to all away games and support the team when we are at home on TV whenever this is possible, people confuse making a stand with turning away from the club completely.
