    Not 606 Hull, has something like 1800 Hull City fans using it. Are you seriously suggesting it's not a good place to canvass Hull City fans ? The mind boggles. Survey completed.

    I didn't realise that you are pro name change.

    Odd isn't it that City till we die is louder when sung in the second half, more join in then than at 1904.

    It won't let me tick the 'to what extend' boxes on an iPad, so I can't complete it.

    It's loudest at 19.04 at away games, where pretty much everyone joins in, which probably says a lot.

    The problem is that any forum may not reflect the average supporters view and this is certainly the case in divisive subjects. Surveys then tend to be slightly unbalanced.

    It's obviously true that it's not 100% accurate, if you ran this survey on CI for instance, the results would suggest that there isn't a single fan who supports the name change, but with 2,500 members, this site will give by far the most accurate response.

    If you want a real gauge of the accuracy of supporters views on this site, check all the other Hull City forums. Not a single pro name change scumbag in sight.

    The very tiny handful that exist all reside on this forum. So if anything the percentage of pro name change feedback you receive will be vastly inflated from here.

    Of that 2.500 how many contributed to the In Bruce We Trust banner the ****ing greedy tight ****s? I'd deduce from that they and this board arent actually supportive of Bruce as they didnt contribute.

    Whoa <ok>

    There really isn't any problem Mel, there are "2500" Hull City fans on here. The op is asking our opinion, simple as that.

    Have you conceded that the name change idea began with Allam's wish to get the word "city" out of the name simply because in his daft way he thought the council woouldn't like it?

    If you think his first reason for
    the idea was because he thought it would make more money for the club then you are more Allam than Mr Allam. :D

    Times are tight Chazz. Just finding the money to get to games is as big ask.

    I find it amusing you think someone as hard headed and successful at what he does would follow this name change idea through because of the council. If it was about the council he'd be wanting Hull removed more than City. Of course, you will choose to ignore that.

    If the good doctor had the balls to do a survey without loaded questions then he'd find out most people are against the idea.

    The only thing more stupid is he thinks changing the name will upset HCC.

    I find it amusing that he told twelve of us at a meeting that this was his reason, he even told the Premier League that was his reason, yet you still choose to ignore it.

    What, like snubbing the councils offer of a promotional party, or neglecting to invite any to our FA Cup final, which would be standard etiquette in most cities. No, of course he doesn't have a grudge. <doh><doh><doh>

    Maybe Happy worries that Allam might have been lying ? Understandable <ok>

    You categorically stated you would report in full from that meeting and would provide full minutes. Hows that going?
