    P&O Ferries are already in bed with the Dullers and Adam Pearson. They prefer rugby by all accounts.

    Well but for that MAD OLD ARSEHOLE Hull City would be in the crapper well and truely. As for Ehab it is daddy's money afterall.

    They prefer to spend less so they sponsor a cheaper sport and 'buy' the locals (or at least some in West Hull.)

    How do you know it is? Papa's getting on and, as far as I'm aware, to avoid death tax, property has to be passed on to the inheritor/s no less than 7 years prior to death.

    The trouble is Fez success breeds success and mediocrity either breeds more mediocrity or failure. Being prudent is good, but if it prevents success there has to be a bit of speculation or the club will start sliding again.

    I respect that you want to keep the club's identity, but I feel we have to do what is necessary to be successful. If we stay in this division for the next five seasons everyone will be setting the bar a lot higher and any idea of being satisfied with mid-table Championship mediocrity will be a joke.

    So with all that in mind we should change our name and that will make us rich. Right.

    I've never said that. Personally I don't think changing our name will make us more marketable, but then again I'm not a businessman. I do however think the right sort of investor could make a huge difference.

    Fair enough, I thought that was the point you were making but probably misread it.

    Vaseline to Deep Heat.
    If they really want to moan that should do the trick.

    They sell them in these strange places called shops. In fact I might pop across to Jacko's to get one.

    Nicer than Marathons but not as big.
