Leeds United manager Steve Evans has urged supporters to get behind their players amid talk of a mass walk-out at Elland Road on Saturday afternoon.
Fans unhappy with owner Massimo Cellino's running of the club are planning to leave their seats in the 17th minute of the match in protest over a new 'pie-tax proposal'.
On the field, Leeds have now lost back-to-back games to see their mini revival come to an abrupt end, but Evans is eager for supporters and players alike to stand together when Hull City visit at the weekend.
"Team spirit comes through winning football matches and players leaving the pitch with the supporters singing their names and supporting them for the right reasons," the Scotsman told reporters. "If ever we needed our players to get a healthy boost of confidence, it's now.
"We'll have another healthy attendance at Elland Road and we're going to need every one of those supporters to get right behind the boys. What happens on that pitch on Saturday is massive for us. The people off the pitch are going to have a major part to play. I've said since I first came in that the Leeds United supporters are known worldwide.
"We took almost 3,500 fans last week and gave them short change, but the one thing we need them to do is to be with us. Collectively you can be successful against Hull. Separately and divided, you don't have a chance. We don't want Hull City to arrive at Elland Road believing there's already a chance that they're in front mentally in the game. We need to pull in the same direction."
United are currently 17th in the Championship table, sitting just four points above the relegation zone.
