    Could you not have added it to one of the other million threads on the subject?

    Yes, but this is a press release from fans groups that may have more impact than discussion. I don't think it deserves to be hidden away amongst rubbish from trolls.

    How can the various "fan forums" be quoted, on bloc as being anti name changing ?

    We've seen many on here who are not !

    Grow a set, for Gods sake

    They haven't named this forum, and the respective owners of each of them domains reserve the right to speak on behalf of their users.

    You can agree with it all Peter, if it was in alphabetical they would have had The Ultras before Tiger Chat ;)

    They have left this board out because we do not have a nominated spokesperson or are not owned by a Hull City Association Football Club fan.

    If you use "The" as part of a title is usual to ignore it for alphabetical ordering purposes.

    Still presents a nice "United" front doesn't it? Statistics eh? Make them say whatever it is you want to say.

    Should really say a "mostly united, small representative of the actual total number of fans agree on something".

    Not everyone on CI disagrees with it. Can't be arsed looking at the others, but as factual things are a minor concern in this sorry saga, I don't see that as important and it would affect the message I'm presenting with my united supporters.

    Calm down. You give the impression of being over-excitable.

    So, what you are saying is that those 3 letters are redundant and can be disregarded? Hmmm, interesting...

    This is probably as good a time to ask as any; we see a lot of stuff coming from CI and Amber Nectar, but are we actually taken seriously as a forum? Are the club aware of us as a group or, because we're part of a larger forum, are we not worth bothering with?

    It is a united front. People like you are not in the front.

    The other forums are more than forums they produce publications etc... We don't even have an elected leader who could impartially speak on our behalf so how on earth could we pull any real rank with the club.

    Edit... That wasn't suppose to sound argumentative. :emoticon-0111-blush

    I think the statement is ridiculous. Don't get me wrong, I'd like the name to remain but, in an official statement on behalf of fans, why on earth would you start spouting conspiracy theories regarding the council etc

    Some people don't know whether there is a "The" in a name so they may look under G for "Garden" and think it's not there and not bother looking under T for "The Garden"

    I did an audit of "The British Petroleum Company Limited" and most people would look for it under B.
