Protesting is supposed to hurt the clubs hierarchy not the clubs long term future like the ideas others suggested. If you want to compromise the clubs future then you're an idiot.

Lol.
You think you’d be compromising the clubs future by not attending games?
As has been said, the club already has our money. A few rounds of 4-5k attendances would send out a strong message to Pearson that we will not continue to be treated like idiots.

| Quote ="bonaire"No point because you are still attending the game
If fans want to genuinely protest then they should not attend.The club already have passholders money so from that point of view they are not damaging the clubs finances too much.
This would also create a media story showing on TV the empty stadium.
If that doesnt resonate with Pearson then nothing will'"
You still in touch with your mate Bumpy?
Could get another petition going?
You signed up to his last one didn't you?
Think you two could even get a moron ike Donald Trump
interested.

| The reality is that TS has been brought in to reorganise the playing side of the club also, as Tarquin has said numerous times, change the culture. Even Gaz Ellis said he couldn’t motivate some players. AP has nailed his colours to the mast, he’s using this season to clear debts and hopefully negotiate a better deal with SMC. I’m as sick of jam tomorrow as anyone else but I’ve been around for 60+ years. Protests won’t work because of the above. TS will move upstairs to Director of Rugby and Grix is the next coach. It’s clearly a case of put up or shut up. What we have is what we have. Staying away won’t make ha’peth of difference, he’s got your dosh and gates of 10,000. The season’s fooked, just wish TS would see sense and get Balmforth in for Houghton who should clearly call it a day, he’s not a captain, he hardly ever shouts the odds to the team. Carlos is another sick note. TS says he can’t play 5 young lads at the same time, WTF we’re getting hammered week in week out, give the kids a chance and get shot of sick notes and non tryers. Oh, hang on, we’d be playing a mixture of reserves and academy. Get on with it Smith

To be honest I’ve already emailed the club, AP and Clark, I did on the Monday morning following the Leigh horror show. I didn’t send an unpleasant email I was simply asking for answers for us as fans which wasn’t too much to ask bearing in mind the backing we have continued to give with nothing changing for years now. Guess what, I’m still awaiting any sort of response, not even the slightest in way of any acknowledgment.
I think the best form of protest would be for all season pass holders to all stay away for one game. That wouldn’t hurt the club financially as we’ve already paid but I would think AP seeing an empty stadium would give him a big reality check as to how serious things are in regards depth of feeling in the fan base.

Well played Sir
For me Adam needs to put the Club up for sale as Adam is the root of the current playing problems.

| In one sense, I’m almost annoyed we rallied that second half, it took us been 132-10 over the course of 5 halves of rugby to seemingly get a rocket up our , pathetic. If it continued in the second half it would’ve got toxic in that away end I reckon, there were several Pearson out chants during the game.
Personally, boycotting the game is such a tough one for me. I appreciate the impact it’ll have, however (as sad as it is) even for as bad as we are it is my highlight of the week, Monday comes and I’m already looking ahead to the next match. I just don’t think i could take watching it on sky knowing I could be there. Maybe I should get a life

| Just had a look at some stats and surprisingly we had more tackle busts than Rovers and also less missed tackles.
Our missed tackles are much more crucial. They're directly leading to trys more often. Nobody else is making a cover tackle if somebody misses.
We only had 3 play the balls in Rovers 20m zone, whereas they had 33. Gave ourselves no chance
Edit: sorry this was meant for the match thread

| What is or would be the protest?
It doesn’t feel like you’re at the ‘Smith out, Pearson out!’ stage yet. If only because there’s no obvious alternative. If there is no money, spending it isn’t an option. The lack of communication is a bit odd, as it should be an easy paint by numbers thing for somebody with his experience… do it in-house via the club website, if there’s a concern Dan Tomlinson might ask any even remotely searching questions.
1. Very disappointing start to the season, genuinely sorry.
2. Nobody is more disappointed than me, and I’m working very hard to fix it - as is everybody at the club.
3. We are spending to the full value of the salary cap (almost certainly true, even if it is one of those truths that is misleading) but we have had to manage (i.e. reduce) our overall budget in the short-term (consider ‘medium-term’ only if things are very bad) to ensure the club survives the fallout of the pandemic and can make repayments on the loans taken during it.
4. Things are tough right now but we will come through this and be stronger (emphasise ‘will’ and ‘stronger’, and most people won’t notice the hanging comparator).

| If rumours are correct Pearson and Smith taking circa £400k from pas holders to pay their wages.
Smith’s contract is up September and Pearson has said publicly he is the last coach he will ever appoint?
Are they both walking end of season?
Can’t sell a club with debts and no assets
It don’t look good at the minute.

| I do think if the passholders can stay away, for 3-4 games, it will at least give Pearson notice that next years renewals will be so adversely affected, the club will be in peril. He may then offer us all an explanation of why we are where we are and the vision for improving our predicament. Or he may just ignore it.

| Ill always be a fan of Hull FC but atm i am not a supporter and cant see myself being so whilst Pearson remains in charge as the whole club is a disaster. Last year whilst living in the north east i still managed to get to about ten games, bought two shirts, two training hoodies, a training shirt and two vests, this year ive attended zero games and bought zero merchandise and that wont be changing. If that hurts the club then maybe thats whats needed. If the club went bust and was demoted then maybe thats whats needed also. The whole club needs a massive reset, theres zero fan engagement and you cannot say one good thing about the whole club. Sometimes youve got to go backwards in order to move forwards, Getting FC out of Pearsons hands would be a massive start. We need a new owner fast and whole new ethos across the whole club - you only have to look at City what a positive new owner can do in a short space of time

The owner doesnt take the club backwards on the field
Smith is responsible for that and needs to be sacked,The most inefective coach we have had for a long time.Even with Hodgson we saw some improvement in play.It was his poor recruitment that killed him
Pearson has made some poor decisions but i feel for him at the moment given his financial restraints

Neither Smith or Hodgson had much say on recruitment,that’s all been down to Clark.We missed out on many players due to Clark offering derisory money based on cost cutting within the club.Costs have been cut all across the club
