I think during the war years, no team played sporting a badge/crest, in case the Germans invaded- so they wouldn't know who was playing.

I could be wrong but I think competitive football was more or less scrapped during the war years?

My Granny's younger brother was a first team regular at Ibrox but went to War alongside 10 or 11 others from the team between 39-45..

Today, Hull City’s crest remains firmly centred around the tiger, a symbol that has represented the club for more than seventy years. While the badge has undergone numerous changes in style and presentation, the tiger has remained the enduring emblem of Hull City AFC and a powerful representation of the club’s identity, heritage and connection to the city of Kingston upon Hull.​

Hull City AFC Club History​

Hull City Association Football Club​

The club joined the Football League in 1905 and spent much of its early history competing in the lower divisions of English football. Although Hull regularly challenged for promotion, success at the highest level proved elusive for much of the twentieth century. The Tigers developed a loyal support base and established themselves as a well-supported regional club despite never reaching the top flight during this period.​

For 56 years, Hull City played at Boothferry Park, which served as the club’s home from 1946 until 2002. The stadium witnessed many memorable moments and became synonymous with the club’s identity. In 2002, Hull moved to the modern KC Stadium, now known as the KCOM Stadium, providing improved facilities and helping to support the club’s future ambitions.​

A remarkable rise through the divisions followed during the 2000s. Under manager Phil Brown, Hull achieved consecutive promotions from League One and the Championship, securing a place in the Premier League for the first time in the club’s history in 2008. The achievement was particularly significant given that Hull had spent more than a century outside English football’s top division.​

The club enjoyed several memorable seasons in the Premier League and achieved one of the greatest moments in its history in 2014 when it reached the FA Cup Final for the first time. Hull led Arsenal 2–0 early in the match before eventually losing 3–2 after extra time. Despite the defeat, the cup run secured qualification for the UEFA Europa League, marking Hull City’s first appearance in European competition.​

One of the most controversial episodes in the club’s modern history occurred in 2013 when owner Assem Allam proposed changing the club’s name to “Hull Tigers.” The proposal was intended to strengthen the club’s commercial appeal, but it was met with strong opposition from supporters, who argued that it threatened the club’s traditions and identity. Following widespread protests and intervention from football authorities, the proposed name change was ultimately rejected.​

Hull City has experienced several promotions and relegations during the twenty-first century, moving between the Premier League, Championship and League One. Despite these fluctuations, the club has remained one of the most prominent football institutions in Yorkshire and continues to compete at a high level within the English league system.​

Hull City’s principal rivalry is with Leeds United, a fixture that many supporters regard as the club’s biggest rivalry. Strong rivalries also exist with fellow Yorkshire clubs, particularly Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday, reflecting the competitive nature of football within the county.​

Today, Hull City remains one of Yorkshire’s most recognisable football clubs. From its beginnings in a rugby-dominated city to reaching the Premier League and an FA Cup Final, the Tigers have built a history defined by perseverance, ambition and strong local support.​
