I'll bring my sponge and he sponge man. I know **** all about medicine but I'd be cheap. Couple of cans of Tiger Cola would do me
Two things Stan.
one. None of this running across the pitch, a leisurely stroll brandishing the ice cold sponge will do the trick. And two,
this is compulsory, and the jobs yours.

But that's not the point I was making.

When the name change came about, many of us had our breaking point. We wanted to protect our name and not have it changed because our owner had a spat with the council.

Soon, those of us who opposed the name change were branded hooligans and given short shrift by the hierarchy.

Now, my point is that back then there were fellow fans who were openly hostile towards us. The likes of Smartarse and Sunbeam did not condemn what Allam said. They just painted us as the enemy, holding the club back.

Now I have no problem with people having different opinions to others. But the fact that they saw their fellow fans, the ones stood next to them on the terraces and sat next to them at the kc, being treated as hooligans and did not speak up on it was beyond the pale to me.

All they could say was, "it's his club, he can do what he wants." Etc. Hull City fans were simply trying to protect their heritage. And a section of their own fans turned on them.

So yes, everyone has their breaking point. But before you get there, you don't turn on your own fans because the issue affecting them isn't affecting you.

How about if it was the other way round? The Allams take over the club. Next thing they remove all concessions. Those older people and those with families are disgusted at being priced out.

But then I say, "ha, well the price of my pass has gone down and I have no kids so I'm happy. You're all just whingers. It's Assems club. He can do what he wants."

Then a couple of years later he wants to change the name of the club. Something that affects me. And I want to jump on board with all the other protesters. I'd be shunned.

However, the difference is that in reality if my fellow fans had been treated so badly, but it didn't affect me, I'd still have stood shoulder to shoulder with them. We're the lifeblood of the club and should always stick together.

That was lost on the Allam arselickers. No sympathy now.

Excellent post

You've missed my point, when Allam wanted the stadium for free, many people supported him and went as far as to be openly hostile to those that opposed it. A few months later those very same people turned on Allam over the name change fiasco. Those people cannot complain that they were treated poorly by other fans when many of them did the exact same thing to others just a few months before.

Everyone had their turning point, some figured Allam out right from the start, for others it has taken until this season of chaos to see him for what he's worth, it really doesn't matter as long as we're all on the same side now.
