Not a single song from the away end today.

And I thought I was deaf. Alright, they weren't the most vocal fans we've had at the amex but they were by no means the worst. It wasn't the most inspiring game of football. It was on telly. It was an evening kickoff. There were no trains back to Hull after the game. We're in a recession.

I know we generally have excellent away support (not always I might add) but it's just a shame that some feel the need to resort to this constant bashing of the away fans - the booing is juvenile and quite frankly embarrassing.

Why have a pop at away fans? Why so much hate?

16 years and a day after Fans United, at a time when football supporters have to fork out near 30 quid for a ticket, 250 miles from home, late kick off, on the tele, during a recession ... And people decide to have a go at fellow supporters.

Not cool.

800 showed up and that is a wonderful effort for all the reasons you mentioned but mainly the recession. I doubt it's too much fun in Hull at the moment. Respect for those who came yesterday.

Isn't Hull a big rugby town? I know they have Hull KR, maybe that takes away from the total number of football supporters.

Does anyoen actually give a f*** if the away sing on not ??? why does it matter, they are there to watch a football match,
Its not T&C of entry you have to sing.

I sat next to them yesterday (in the segregation bit) and they were at times making a lot of noise, as i have said many times, i have viewed the game from many places at the amex, even at the same game, and the acoustics vary a lot from where you are sitting.

Agree and 852 is bloody brilliant considering the distance, the weather, the TV and recession etc and above all, we screwed them over with the kick off time AGAIN.
