    It's a no brainer for me, of course they should.

    Yes.

    If not do one further and forfeit the game completely.

    In a way, we should reject the tickets, to send out a message, but in all honesty, can we afford to allow City to play away at Huddersfield at what is a crucial time in our Season with us fighting for the automatic spots with no supporters?

    YES. If we don't and this becomes the norm EVERY game will lack support. Some things are bigger than the season.

    Problem with rejecting the tickets is it hurts us by not having any fans at the game, hurts Hudders by not getting any ticket money and gives most of them idle bastards the WYP a ****ing day off....

    My natural inclination is also a straight forward yes.

    Morally, we should tell WYP to **** right off, in the long term this issue needs to be sorted, it's ridiculous.

    But what concerns me, is Nick Thompson tonight on Blunderside, saying that it's a **** situation, but that Bruce and the team don't want to go into an important game with no support.

    If the club had just said 'you're taking the piss, **** off', then it would have been easy and WYP might well have backed down, but unfortunately, they didn't. Hard to judge what will happen now, if the boycott continues, I'll support it 100%, but I think the club will do what they can to get us to turn up.

    When put that way, it becomes glaringly obvious that we should boycott it. But, couldn't we just buy out the full allocation, turn up, voice our opinions (banners, chants etc etc), allow that lads legal case to progress, eventually get the media on our side and progressively campaign against them.

    Surely there's another way without leaving our side in a Yorkshire derby with no support?

    Nah, plod suck the ticket money anyway, if this becomes the norm, EVERY game will be effectively fan less then WYP would have killed their golden goose.

    There is NO compromise to freedom.

    Anyone who buys a ticket is a splitter!

    Of course they ****ing should

    Unless you're happy to be treated like **** at every subsequent away game provided it's in the Premier League.

    NO, NO, NO. Any agreement to ANY part of this will be the death of the game.

    This isn't about this one game, it really, really is about the whole future of football.

    Couldn't agree with you more mate, I would quite happily rather buy a ticket to watch the game being beamed LIVE to the KC and fund our own Club as opposed to going to Huddersfield. I'm just thinking, if we lose this game, and miss out on Promotion, would it be blamed on lack of support?

    I won't be buying a ticket before people accuse me of being a scab, splitter etc, I was just thinking of our bid for Promotion that's near to it's climax. 3 points dropped could be fatal.

    Have no doubt at all IF we lose and IF we miss promotion, it won't be the one game and it wouldn't be the lack of support BUT if the fans show a lack of support to this fight, being promoted will be irrelevant because you will not want to go under the conditions they'll bring in and even if you did, it would be a flat atmosphere.


    Over and above that why the **** should we accept this insult and conditions that they wouldn't dare try on any other member of society?

    I think Burnsy will ask Bruce about this after tomorrow's game and his response will largely determine how many people will go.

    We should definitely utilise the fact it's on telly to make a statement. I don't mean a few crappy chants here and there we reeally need to do something to send out a message. if we could get even 100 people to turn up wearing this it would be ****ing hillarious. 51tB8zCjQ5L._AA1500_.jpg And only 12 quid on amazon!

    Seriously for a minute, all you guys on this thread - I assume you normally attend games - are you honestly not buying tickets? Because this is stand up and be counted time.

    We can't accept this ****.

    I would have gone to this game but am no not going. Problem is though that is mainly due to the inconvenience, the people who normally go on TT will probably continue to do so Boycott is pointless unless backed by the club. Should have ringfenced all the total diehards and just let them go, there is only 90ish of them anyway.
