    The Tribunal will not overturn the decision unless the Allams can show that the FA acted illegally, which they haven't. There will be no name change. Assem Allam is selling because he has run out of money, there will be no further investment because he hasn't got the cash.

    Rather than have a civil war amongst the supporters wouldn't it be better to step back and look at ways of promoting Hull City to get the money we need to keep the Allams as owners and keep our name. Which is what the majority want.

    A civil war will eventually affect the performances on the pitch, especially if it consists of constant booing and jeering from both sides.

    and which source of revenue would that be because it has never been proven that changing the name would bring any extra revenue into the club.

    I have been banned once for trying to rig a c*nt of the month poll.

    I don't have a habit of creating multiple accounts, I did it just the once because I had enough of the abuse.

    Moral high ground? A person like you doesn't know how to have a respectable discussion/debate, the only method you know is resorting to abuse.

    No I don't think the FA will accept his appeal.
    No there is no rationale behind the name change.
    No it won't bring untold or any other type of riches ...... But you completely miss the point.

    WE NEED HIS MONEY!!! And "need" in this case means the difference between a bright future or a return to the lower leagues.
    Therefore anyone with an iota of intelligence finds ways to keep the investment knowing that Allam is a temporary aberration and even Ehab would probably end up changing the name back.

    FFS some of you are so dense that light must bend around you.

    This forum is sooooooo awful now! Way too many idiotic views and way too many premiership fans, 2 years ago in the championship we hardly sold out a game! I hope he sells and then see what happenes, division 3 was way more fun than the premiership anyway!

    That's a new low for me, nearly 45 years supporting Hull City, and home (fans) booing home supporters for singing our name, truly and utterly disgusting, a 100 times worse than booing a player which is bad enough, but seriously booing your own fans.

    Appeasers hang your head in shame, let Allam shaft you again and again, you are the type that would desert in battle, you are the conscientious objector, you are the coward with the white feather, you have let a greedy man with money turn you into a little puppet to hang you by a thread and do with what he wants, I despise you.

    Dr Allam says that it will so it must be true of course, he knows better than anybody and it is his club and if you dont like it you can die if you want to. What a state of affairs seriously, none of this is called for and is down to one man. It defies logic that some people cant see what is in front of them and that the fans bickering and name change debacle is down to one person. Sorry to invoke Godwins Law but god help us if something like the Nazis came to power in England and you would get these people saying 'they are in charge, they can do whatever they want'. It's the same logic.

    No one in the North Stand was booing the CITY TILL I DIE SONG , ( near me )

    I sung it loud and proud as I have done for years .

    The stupid name change would have made us a pathetic 1 million a year ...how will that make I difference between success and failure ???

    It doesn't .

    It's a ****ing con it's got **** all to do with raising more Money

    Drop the name change no one prefers HULL TIGERS to HULL CITY

    IF YOU DONT YOU CAN **** OFF.

    Name change is a stupid pointless thing .

    Those fans booing need to realise Allam has kicked you in the teeth with his threat to leave.

    I supported him only to be told he will dump the club if he doesn't get his own way

    He doesn't care about the club as much as I thought

    He's run out of money. He's said it a number of times over the last year. Our transfer instalments are rising so is our wage bill. He's selling because he hasn't got the money.

    Another part of my club died tonight. Part of our support booing another part of our support makes me feel completely hollow. There is no logical reason for the name change and none has been put forward to support it. At a time when we should be so excited by being in a position that I have dreamed of for 30 years; I have never felt so detached.

    Any thoughts that they might not be boing anti Hull Tigers and instead could be booing the people who could potentially causing an adverse affect on the pitch.

    I can't remember who said this but it was along the lines of this. Protest before and after the match but support the players 100% whilst they are on it because any protests to other things during the match can effect performances on the pitch.



    No one at all is booing our clubs name or history and that is pure hysteria. They are booing a pressure group that is hijacking one of the clubs song and showing they do not support the CTWD.

    I also like the argument that we're being ungrateful for all the money he's spent and players he's brought in.

    So f**ing what? Would you stay with an abusive partner because they buy you expensive gifts? Some people are just whores for the highest bidder, and anyone who is in favour of the name change is just whoring themselves for the Premier League.

    Thanks Dutch, I really appreciate that. Somebody has actually listened, lets some others step back, get the mirror and think about what's best for our club.
