HULL City boss Steve Bruce has called on fans to fill the KC Stadium tomorrow and lift his side to three vital points in the race.

Billy Davies' in-form Nottingham Forest side are expected to be roared on by more than 3,000 travelling supporters after five wins in a row have lifted them into the play-offs.

    Can't help falling in love: Hull City fans at the KC Stadium

City were backed by more than 17,000 who watched their impressive 5-2 victory over Birmingham at the KC Stadium a fortnight ago.

And with the promotion race now in its home straight, Bruce is hoping the city backs the Tigers and attend in big number to roar them home.

"I know how difficult it is for people at present financially as we are the highest unemployment area in the country, so it's hard for people to find the money," Bruce said.

"But if they can, I'd love for people to come out and back the lads tomorrow and in the coming weeks at the KC.

"If people maybe do without their Saturday night out and come to the football, that would be great.

"I know Forest may bring more than 3,000, so if we can fill our areas in the stadium it will be a real proper game.

"With their support, hopefully we can go out and get another big three points.

"I know how hard it is for people to find the money, but if they can dig deep it will be appreciated by me and the players."

    “The finincial reward for City going up is not to be sneezed at.
    I would suggest, chop a few quid off the price of remaining games to ensure the people of Hull get behind the team & help turn promotion into reality.”

    “Well all we need do is take someone with us who doesnt usually go.
    A young nephew or Niece or brother or sister.
    A new supporter for the future :-)
    and it doesnt cost that much more for under 16 even less for 10 and under.

    i have been taking my two Nieces to some games this season and i am taking them on saturday so thats me taking 2 new supporters with me....Both are now playing footy in there school team and this will be there 6th game they have been too.

    I got into going when my dad started taking me to Boothferry park when i was 8
    ( he wouldnt take me sooner )

    49 years of being a HULL CITY fanatic / supporter

    ( even though i only look about 30......rofl )”

    “What Bruce is really saying here is it's about time you all got off your fat lazy ****s made a few sacrifices and start attending some games! Our attendances have been absolutely woeful this season for a promotion chasing team.

    I know dozens of city fans who hardly ever go anymore, everyone trots out the 'skint' excuse but Princes Ave is still bursting at the seems every weekend and i guarentee we'll sell out again if we go up.

    We either want a Premier League team or we don't

    Stop making excuses and get a ******* ticket.”

    “Why are some of the comments repeated three time, three times, three times?

    When will the HDM start their Premiership 'Believe The Dream' campaign? I guess 2 games before the end of the season, same as 2008.”

    “Why can't the HDM do a simple check on our attendances this season?”

    “I 'll come then for a free coffee at half time....oh hang on a minute .. I have already got a ticket.

    the tension is mounting in me.... in 2008 I never thought it would happen so I was fine - but now - we might make it
    It's like holding your breath for 90 minutes at every game now
    COYH”

    “17,000 against Birmingham our biggest attendance of the season? What about the 23,000 for the Leeds game? Or the 20,000 against Leicester? Or the c. 18,000 against Burnley? Hull Daily Mail, you really are an utterly garbage news service. Amateurs. A complete embarrassment to the city.”
