    piss off.

    who are you to decide what someone else does? if someone decides they don't want to contribute any money to the shysters running the club but still want to support the team, going to only away games is a reasonable compromise. they're spending more money following the team than most who only go to home games.

    It's a football forum. I'm not deciding anything for anybody. It's my opinion.

    you still have difficulty understanding the distinction between abandoning watching city and abandoning funding the allams. it's quite simple and entirely reasonable.

    So you're quite happy funding whiter-then-white, butter-wouldn't-melt owners of such clubs like Leeds, Nottm Forest, etc ?

    I was going to put that exact same point.

    I also don't get how it's a different team away than at home. You either support the team or you don't.

    Finally, I assume these highly principled people wouldn't even think about going to any cup games at all?

    Or joining organisations that pay the owners sponsorship money for players?

    Lol.

    i don't give a toss about those teams. anyone going to an away game is going to have to pay to get in.

    it's not a different team.

    there's a lot you don't get. i'll leave you to try and work it out if you can be bothered.

    It doesn't bother me what happens to Forest or Leeds, of course we're not going to boycott on behalf of their fans. Even if they were as bad as the Allams.

    Why would cup games be any different?

    Presumably he means because both teams gets a percentage of the gate money for cup games, for FA Cup games it's a significant percentage.

    Oh I'm sure you'd be able to justify going to an away game in a cup. Especially at Wembley or even a big club. Even though that's putting money in the Allams pockets.

    Principles for sale anyone??

    Hardly. His pathetic principled stance is a complete sham.

    The **** you on about. We both know it's your ilk that sell out for success on the pitch. I'd watch City at any level and I'm sure it's the same for NFT.

    God knows what you get out of this.

    As I've said, everyone is entitled to their own choices - just don't make a song and dance about it as if you;re doing something heroic. Also, please don't call yourself a true supporter.

    As I've said - everyone is entitled to their views. It's just that yours - as expressed above - seems to me to be the biggest load of claptrap I've ever heard! A change of name from Hull City to Hull Tigers, whilst unwelcome, would in no way would have changed the nature of the club that we all support (apart from the odd one or two!)

    You're a joke.

    Jokes make me laugh.

    You make me laugh.

    You're a pompous prick who talks ****e about principles online, when in reality you actually don't have any at all.

    Boycotting the club, at great personal cost, not seeing the team you love with your soul at home because you can't bear to put money in the Allams pockets.

    How noble.

    How full of **** you are.

    That's what I get out of this.

    Laughing.

    At you.
