And it's that sort of apathy that the club now rely on. If we all want change then not attending one game as a protest will not kill you, but attending will probably bore you to death.
We need to look at the bigger picture here and just because you don't turn up to support the boys for one game will not make a blind bit of difference to the players but will show the board we have had enough and hopefully that the tide is turnng against them. It will not make you any lesser of a fan.
I have been a Hull fan for many years too but will not attend whilst that clown is in charge as I can't stomach watching how boring and disappointing we are.
I attended Cardiff in hope and expectation and spent the best part of £500 that weekend so don't let your over exhuberance to see your first game cloud the issue here. We need Agar away from our club to progress.

Spot on i am with you.I go to support my team through thick and thin and nothing will ever take that away.

We were sat at the other side of the stand to the banner and only noticed it during the 2nd half. Fair play to the lads for having the courage of their convictions. I didn't see the incident at the end of the game with Meley so cannot pass comment on that.
Like many posters have alluded i think the protest that would get the board to sit up and take notice would be one that got less bums on seats.

People don't go to games out of apathy. Someone who is apathetic is not likely to go to the effort and expense of attending a live game.

Whether someone wants to attend a game or not is a personal choice, and all this nonsense about 'the bigger picture' is just that - nonsense. Attendances will look after themselves and trying to convince a few people on here to stay away will achieve nothing other than to cause rifts between fans through the use of intemperate language.

Are you a passholder?

In cases like Mr Z Head it's not just apathy, it's martyrdom. It's one thing to just blithely go along and support the team each week disregarding the bigger picture, people can do whatever they like. But when the people who take that position disparage those who do not, implying that they are somehow an inferior type of fan, then it borders on the ridiculous.

If passholders dont go that will send a huge message to the board. They've paid for all the home games and still not turning up.

If hundreds of people send James Rule an email stating their displeasure then he will have to take notice. The players, for all their shortcomings, are obviously putting in the effort and they don't deserve to be playing infront if an empty stadium.

You just dont get it do you.
The apathy he speaks of is the 'we will continue to pay our money no matter what dross is served up to us, we dont care that we are getting taken for a ride'.

That's not apathy.

HTH

You're missing his point. Plenty of people go watching rugby because they enjoy it/ it's a hobby/ part of their social life/ it's what they've done for years. That's not to say they don't care about the club, far from it, but it can easily mean they are pretty apathetic about how the team is performing because they'll be going regardless.

Exactly. I was going to reply to Kosh directly but you beat me too it, thank you.

You are entitled to your opinion and if you want to stage the protest then good luck to you, but I won't be joining in. I am by no means a big Agar fan but I guess I am in the minority that I go because I love the sport and the team, not because I want/expect us to win trophies every year. If we are successul then great, but if not then life goes on. People can call me apathetic or unambitious but tbh I really don't care.

And as for disparaging comments, dont forget that you threw the first stone by referring to people who don't agree with you as sheep.

[iApathy[/i (also called impassivity or perfunctoriness) is a state of indifference, or the suppression of emotions such as concern, excitement, motivation and passion.

Think that sums it up pretty well TBH.

I did to enjoy it.
I still go to rugby games as a hobby and coach.
It was part of my social life but me and my friends just don't go now due to the performances.
I've done it since i was 5.

All of that and i have no problem not going. As i've said its the only way the board will act.
