    Which is of most importance to the forum members on here? Is it concessions, which presumably have hit some people’s pockets or the approach adopted by the Allams in rebranding the Club?

    Was it the lack of consultation from the Club that alienated the Allams from the fan base to begin with or something else?

    Would compromise on one be acceptable or have the Allams little hope in reaching an amicable agreement with us, the fans?

    Both. But I'll settle for one if they remove a Hull City Council sign from the stadium and put it back when asked politely.

    I'll settle for neither if they also threaten to have the club run by a third party and then run it themselves sell up for £1 and **** off.

    I wish people would stop calling it rebranding - it's about two worthless ****s calling the club by it's proper name - nothing more nothing less

    The concessions are a non-issue for you?

    There's no way back for me.
    I'll never trust them again, bridges well and truly burnt.

    IMO, totally wrong, illogical, irrelevant, set of questions
    Look, all they need to do is:
    1. Revert back to calling us by our proper name and nickname on all communications (bar the stupid HCT on legal documents if they really must).
    2. Revert back to the previous badge.
    Do 1 & 2 on everything that is in their power to do with immediate effect, given it's mid-season, with a commitment to extend to everything at the end of the season. Done in 1 minute flat.
    3. Implement proper concessions as fast at they reasonably can. Consult properly if it really needs it. In the meantime, consider kids for a quid, free tickets en-masse to Schools, bring a Senior, etc.
    4. Apologise, although I accept that would never happen with those 2 twats.

    It really isn't difficult. FFS stop playing along with their games, stop complicating things, stop asking stupid ****ing q's.

    They have no intention of doing anything that we want. It's all smoke mirrors game playing butt ****ing us over and over again. I say that with 99.9% confidence, because if they had any intention they would have acted way before now, and in 1 minute flat they could have appeased most of us.

    Just ****ing do it. Now. They have a whole week to do the above and stave off the disruption. But they won't because they have no intention to give us what we want. It's like deja ****ing vu on here going round in bleedin circles, when it's all so friggin obvious to practical everyone bar the apologists.

    Great post.

    You've just outlined what they need to do if they are serious about building bridges with the fans, it would be simple and quick to implement and repair a significant amount (but certainly not all) the damage. The fact they won't consider a single one of those points shows how serious they are about resolving the conflict between themselves and the fans.

    If you think it comes down to just rebranding and concessions you really don't understand the situation at all.

    Listen soft lad - where did I say concessions weren't an issue - I was on that boat long before many on here were - uber **** Allan doubled the price for the disabled a few years back - most fans didn't give two hoots, indeed some couldn't understand why they were a concession anyway as they received more in benefits - and now when it affects them because of their age or having kids they finally get on board - I say welcome, come and join the club

    Agreed. He's just a wum looking for bites like the usual ****s who appear on here every now and then.

    Wrong again. Genuine fan (not that I should have to justify that to you or anyone else). I pose genuine questions, that is all.

    As you were.

    Soft lad? Lovely!

    I was curious as you did not mention concessions in your first reply - that is all.

    No, I’m really not. All I am guilty of is asking questions to try and understand why our supporters appear so set against the Allams. If I am guilty of anything it is not allowing emotion to enter into my thoughts on these issues.

    Passion can sometimes be misplaced.

    As I have no influence over how the Allams operate, I fail to see how posing the questions I have would complicate matters.

    I do not consider them to be “stupid questions” either but each to their own.

    Shouldn’t you have just signed it ‘K’ ?
