'"
It was against Warrington in July 2006 - ironically the last game in our 13 match winning run.
Last night was our 60th consecutive 10,000+ attendance (not including Cup games). It will be a struggle to make it 61.

I reckon I know a fan who will oblige as well, he has a great stadium voice
No issue with that, but that is not a boycott more of a protest which would be much more effective.

| The dissatisfaction with Agar seems to be increasing, but wouldn't it be good to have a range of protest measures ?
I think the iPetition is an excellent idea, but wouldn't it be good to have something on matchday ?
We were sitting there last night and thinking about getting 7 large letters spelling AGAR OUT for the Crusaders game
Or even just OUT - which would be quite easy for people to do and I am sure would be seen as the same message.
Thinking of the size required, we would probably need flip-chart sized paper with black letters on, so that means it would need a hefty bit of cardboard backing too. No point waving a bit of A4 as it wouldn't be seen over in the West Stand !
I am certainly going to arrange this for the Crusaders game - hope others do too and it makes me feel a lot better than just talking about it.
I think WE CAN add the pressure that is needed here.

Go for it, the more pressure the better.

The phrase go forth and multiply mean anything to you. My kids do fine thank you very much. If you don't understand what I am getting at then you clearly didn't even attend any of the top quality schools in East Hull.

| Now then Guys & Gals
Just wanted to come on this bloody forum for the first time, not a regular visitor to this site but just got to an all time low last night watching the club that I have supported from being a three year old boy standing on an old milk create with my mum and dad at boulevard.
firstly would just bring to the attention of all Hull fans an incident in the game that identifies the technical fraeilties of the man who is coaching one of the top supported clubs in the league with the financial capacity to compete with the very best on a week to week basis.
before the season started it was reported that Sam Moa had trimmed down by so many kilo's to allow him to have more game time for longer spells, on 22 minutes he was introduced into the game to spell Mark o Mealy and at this part of the game Hull were 10-6 down for the further 8-10 minutes Hull were in the game and on the line at around 31 minutes when a offside decision from senior gave Hull a great opportunity to get level or possibly go into the lead when Sam Moa burst onto the Ball on the second tackle to only spill it over the line.
Instantly the SKY cameras went to the team coach and his reaction to this was Effff offff "Sammy" then in the next breath "get him off", he remained on the pitch for a further three minutes and on 34 minutes sure enough off Moa went and On come O mealy with 6 to go to the half, in this period from 34 to 40 minutes Hull went from 10-6 down to 20-6 down, which inevitably was the game in my opinion.
I could go in to even greater detail about more technical issues about the game but I think it would be good for all you Hull fans that recorded this on sky to look at this incident and say to yourself this is the difference between a good decision making coach and a poor decision making coach?????
on reflection of all of this some further pointers Danny tickle spilt 2 balls in the same manner during the game and was not spelled, so put yourself in Sam Moas shoes how would you feel seeing your coach criticise one player and react the remove you from the playing fireld and then sat in the dug out watching his team mates do exactly the same and not be criticised, hmmmmm i wonder...
Anyways I have had my rant and will never criticise the badge as that is bigger than any individual in the club either on the board or on the field but there has to be someone sat in the board that feels the same passion as what some of our fans do "hence Neil Hudgell,Phil Lowe rovers through and through"
food for though eahhhhhh....... so i beg you all to let your feelings known as it's us guys that can make changes.
FC till I die....

that shows how far the club has come, 5 years ago we coulden't get over 10K despite being on a 12match winning run and playing a playoff side in Warrington.
the way the club is being run will un-do all that good work in building crowds and income.

Bless.
Maybe you could quote where anyone said that shareholders would pull out if there was a boycott? Or are you, as usual, just shooting your mouth off without pausing to engage your brain? Although I'm quite flattered that you think I have the power to undermine any protests.
Now calm down before you post yourself into a ban.

| I know there has always been a vocal group on here that have never thought Agar was good enough. I, like I think the vast majority of us, wanted to give him a chance.
He's had that chance.
Last night I felt a definite sea change, in the crowd, and talking in the pub afterwards.
Maybe it is the truth that our board are primarily interested in the money making side of the club, and very successful they are at it too. But any successful business has to have a good initial product. Our initial product is on the field, and it is being slowly eroded away. If you look at it this way, this is one of those times when the boards aims and what we want should be the same.
The time for the board to act is NOW or we are going to loose what talent we have at the club, and we can wave bye-bye to challenging for honours.
