Three Hull City fans got their “NO” protests all wrong

There is a lot of anger at Hull City at the moment.

The fans are not happy - despite promotion back to the Premier League for this season. But there has been no investment in new players, and so short are the Tigers of senior pros, that only three subs were named for the opening match of the season against champions Leicester City. Manager Steve Bruce was so frustrated he walked out of the club just before the season started. And the Hull fans have had enough. A group of them made their feelings known with a protest during the match, with many of them holding up signs with the simple message "NO". Only a couple of fans got it a little bit wrong... https://twitter.com/prodnose/status/764430068827484160

The replies were typically forgiving:
