    The No to Hull Tigers campaign have already stated many times that it should be peaceful protest. How many times do they have to say the banner tussle was individual supporters and the banner was not a CTWD banner. The only protest they have initiated is a flag being passed over peoples head to the halfway point of the East Stand. This was done without any bother at all. The other protest is to sing City till I Die. How the hell can anyone call that offensive of inflaming a situation. I just despair of some people on this board. You want us just to roll over and accept the club to have a different name. Have you seen how naff Hull Tigers looks, now ridiculous it will look on kit etc. If you think Allam will be happy with that you are wrong. He is unstable and will inflict all sorts of damage to the club, what other crazy ideas does he have. When this one fails to bring in investment what else will he do. I honestly think people come on here just to oppose the CTWD campaign and really don't care about anything but the wind up.

    I agree with the first paragraph. Such as the whole pissing contest with Leicester etc. he won't be pushed around if someone comes along with a bigger wanger, he'll fight his corner tooth and nail and its exactly what football needs is someone who won't bend over and accept bum rampage by any who approaches with a bigger wanger, if he has to be rectally violated he'll at least made sure the wanger leaves with the clap or something irritating.

    But there is no way at all he should treat the fans how he has done recently.

    Not often i disagree with you ben. But, he does take advice and listen then he makes a decision. Thats what successful people do. He may be right he may be wrong on this. But with that investment he is going to want the final say.
    He will have talked to other Chairmen, the consistent portrayal of him only talking to Tan is to further his isolation, which again isnt true.

    I agree he isnt media friendly but i rather like it, he is who he is. Instead of a smarmy package.

    How much would it cost for an advertising board opposite the cameras I wonder? Despite Allam's suggestion I doubt he'd allow that.

    This attitude makes me sick. "He started it etc".
    Yes he started it by ploughing millions into the club when no-one else would.

    I see nothing to be proud of standing back and watching the flames as your club goes up in smoke.

    Because Mr Hat said if he wrote off the debt nobody would be interested in buying us. I was just saying if he wrote off the debt people would be interested. I could have quoted Mt Hat but it was so long I didn't.

    I think he should be repaid every penny. I've said so many times on CI even before the name change was suggested.

    What you said isn't relevant to the post you quoted.

    Read the post Cocknose, you've got the wrong end of the stick. Carry on being sick though.

    Where do I say "he started it"?

    Get your head out your arse & look forward to Liverpool & Stevie Gee Gee Gee coming today.

    Is there a city board of directors that could intervene. Surely his family must now realise the damage he is doing with his ranting. Why can't someone step in and stop him.

    Yes well think about these words when you are watching the team in the lowest league in a largely empty stand.
    "At least we haven't got a naff name"

    Yes or a team worth watching.

    I'm guessing that would be something new to you?

    You can give him 66 million. Its simple he owns the club he wants to take us down this line. If not he will get his money out and leave. Thanks and goodbye. That may take a year or two but he'll do it and will always have had an exit strategy.

    Some claim Mr Allam is aware of what gets posted on message boards, that being the case;

    Mr Allam, you said you wanted to leave a legacy for the people of Hull, and you've clearly put a large amount of money to good uses, but all that is being undone. If you are not very careful, you will be remembered across the world as the petulant man that tried to kill Hull City AFC. Everything else will be forgotten.

    Seeing as it's the FA that has the final say on the name change I can't see how the latest outburst by Mr Allam can do anything to show the FA there's a genuine consultation process going on.

    This is not about the survival of the name now. This is about the survival of the club. Do you understand this?

    Obi, I didn't write that at all. I said if Mr. Allam was to sell up the buyer would need buy the amount his loan equates to plus whatever he wants on top for the controlling stake of the club.

    You dont like his business plan dutch, so he is going to walk away. Nothing petulant about that. Petulant are some wanting their cake and eat it, **** off Allam but leave your money here and buy us a striker.
