The Hull City Supporters Trust (HCST) has been in contact with us to ask for all LCFC fans to show their support for the planned protest activity that will take place at our game on Saturday.
HCST explained “The aim of what we’re encouraging now is to highlight for the TV cameras how upset City fans are, and bring attention to the various issues we have with the Allams’ ownership of the club, such as the detestable pricing out of children, seniors and the disabled from attending matches, forced seat moves and the ongoing obsession at the club with eradicating any reference to the word ‘City’. A lot of neutrals still don’t understand what is going on at Hull City. We want to make sure that they can start to understand after seeing this match on TV, we want to make the pundits discuss the situation and we want to bring attention to the shocking mismanagement of the club by the Allams”
Timeline of protest activities:
10:30 – Meet at the William Gemmell pub if you’d like to help with protests. Also at this time, the ‘Allam Out Protest March’ meet at Tigers Lair.
12:00pm – Demonstration outside the West stand reception including fans who are not attending the game.
12:25pm – Teams come out for kickoff. Hold up your red cards and banners and make yourself heard vocally.
19 minutes and 4 seconds into the match – Hold up your cards and banners again, sing ‘City Til I Die’ and anything else you can think of to make yourself heard.( This of course is the time at which fans have protested against attempts to change the club’s name by singing ‘City Til I Die’, in reference to the club being founded in 1904. Get those cards and banners up and sing loud. Make sure the cameras see and hear how unhappy we are).
The large red cards have been printed with a large "NO" in white. The protest is against the Owners several shortcomings:
· NO Concessions (this can apply to visiting fans too, but that isn’t the case for this weekend)
· NO Fan Dialogue
· NO Honesty
· NO Sale
· NO Identity (refusal to use the name Hull City)
The Foxes Trust would like to encourage our fans to back the HCST protest and take a red card if offered to join in with above schedule
