Social media companies must do more to stop online abuse. That is why this weekend we are coming together with English football and other sports and organisations, to boycott social media and demand change.
Hull City will join the EFL, English football and wider sport in switching offour Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts, from 3pm Friday 30th April to 11.59pm on Monday 3rd May.
Why are we boycotting social media?
Following proposals from EFL clubs earlier this month, Hull City, the EFL and the wider game as a collective wants to demonstrate our collective anger at the constant abuse on social media received by footballers and people in the game, as well as others across the world, which goes without any real-world consequences for perpetrators.
