Going back just under 15 years and there was what at the time felt like a massive campaign from Hull City fans to get Mark Fish to sell the club, and for Terry Dolan to be sacked. This got a lot of media attention at the time iirc and it seemed every lamp post in the City had stickers with the slogans in the thread title on them.
If people are so bothered about the board, why don't they try something similar to this? The only way they would sell up is if they were under a large amount of pressure and protests from a few hundred people outside the ground won't do it really. Things like the stickers, banners at grounds, getting the media involved etc is surely the way to go if you want the club rid of the current board?

If they had called him Martin Fish perhaps he would of just packed up and gone, he probably never realised they were talking to him

Martin Fish I remember someone running up behind Dolan and planting a ''Fish out' sticker on him.
tbh Terry Dolan wasn't that bad, he just never had any funds available when he needed them.

Martin Fish was also a great bloke and did his very best.
He never stole any money, he simply didnt have enough of his own to be able to take City out of a very large hole.
He ran the club the best he could. I remeber sitting having a meal when there was our table and one other with around 30 empty. How can he work with what is not there?
i remember them days, fish, chisolm, things got really nasty and totally over the top, i know were going through a rough patch, but i hope some of our fans don't resort to doing stuff like city fans did at the time, i remember reading about martin fish having fish heads posted to him!! and numerous threats
