Whereas i'd love everyone to sing 90 minutes for City and nothing else, these problems with the club need addressing & if you care it's your right to sing/ protest it.
The whole 1904, CTWD was becoming less & less prevelent in recent weeks. People were singing it with less and less gusto. By the end of the season it may have died all together.
There;s only one person to blame for the esculation of the animosity coming form the stands.
Good call.Protest type songs aside I would suggest getting on Diego Costa's case, the guy has a short fuse and should be booed and hissed every time he has the ball, like the pantomime villan. I think it was at Sunderland when they did that Murinio had to take him off before he got a red card he was so wound up.
I get back each year for christmas and the new year, i posted before that even when back i don't go to home games, i am old school and couldn't do with the modern day allocated seat, heavy handed stewards, photo journalists scaning the crowd hoping to catch someone making an obsene gesture, and all the rest. Every one on here says the away games are better so i asked about a ticket for the Boxing day game at Sunderland, season ticket holders first then those with a record of buying tickets and then ah there are none for the likes of you.Good call.
Do you ever get back for games Balkan?

For me the good old days have gone, it was if you want to sit go over there if you want to stand go there. If you have had enough of standing and singing move to the front or side and have a sit down. For me thats how it was and during the time i have been away ( 20 years ) the whole game has changed, it would be very hard to turn up now and enjoy the occasion. If you have been going all the time and the changes happen bit by bit i suppose it's less of an issue, new supporters only know what they have today.
So as i said in my very first post on here i follow Hull City and leave the supporting to others and dof my cap to them for putting up with all they have to.
The last time we beat Chelsea was in the old division 2. I don't suppose many on here were around then, but I was and at the game. Mid week. Boothferry Park, crowd about 8,000 with a couple of hundred Chelsea.
The noisy City were in the Kempton and we jeered and heckled Chelsea from the kick off. Especially Graham Roberts? Centre half, meat head, Chelsea's main man and so on. And how we got to him! Keith Edwards ran him ragged with the crowd cheering him on, Roberts was rattled and the more we jeered him the more he reacted.
Eventually Edwards put City in front and I'm sure Roberts then lunged in at Edwards and we got a penalty from which we scored, 2-0 City.
From memory Roberts was either sent of or substituted but as he left the field the Kempton gave him a rousing farewell to which he turned and gave us the two fingers.
Great memories from a time when all our crowd was 100% behind the team, a real backs-to-the-wall night, and one which we, the fans, influenced the result.
It was 3-0 wasn't it??
1988 it was, Edwards 2.
Yes 3-0 & our only win v Chelsea @ BP.
Guys, can we be bigger than our owner?
Can we do the CTWD song with Ghusto at 19:04, followed by a rousing TIGERS, TIGERS, TIGERs as soon as the CTWD song dies out?
Show him that we are impartial, but Hull CITY is our name just as the TIGERS is.
The happy clappers & are impartial.
The supporters chanting "City 'til I Die" at 19:04 are in no way impartial.
Those PL supporters booing are probably impartial to the name change as they had no allegiance to the club or the club's name prior to 2008.
That's the big problem.
Allam has dug his heels in & so have the CTWD supporters.
The losers are the team.

How so, dotty?
I fear you may be right. There will be a lot of premier hangers on who are there just to see one of the top teams. They wont be cheering for City.
