You said people who support CTWD believe he has a marketing campaign, that sounds like OLM is talking about people who are in favour of the name change. If they were already supporting CTWD they wouldn't be saying they "need" to debunk it.
If every single CTWD follower is aware that he's been bull****ting about his grand master Asian plan then why is CTWD having to combine evidence against a fictitious marketing plan? There's no ****ing plan! How can you build a case against it??? It's as crazy as me saying we should change our name because some unicorn told me so and you building up a case against the existence of unicorns. If everyone knows it's bull**** then I'm not quite sure why it's still brought up and still trying to be disproven. Is it really only for the benefit of the very last few remaining pro-name change forum members?
They're not telling themselves that he doesn't have a marketing plan, they're making the case to the people who are still under the belief he has one. They are not the followers of CTWD. It's about having as strong a case against every claim being made that you possibly can.
You do realise that this is just another example of Southern, M25, Londoncentric bias AGAINST our club?? Doesn't it strike you strange that Hull is suddenly given column inches, and its not to describe us as Dull or Hell etc? The reason is plain, this plan of Dr Allams is genius, and will break the stranglehold the established London Clubs have on the league. Yes I realise that includes Manchester and Liverpool, but think about it, the majority of their fans are from London and the home counties too! The top 6 are bankrolled from London. They are valuable commodities. We're going to upset that gravy train. The LAST thing the London Media wants is a club like ours to break the mould and achieve success, they need us down to make themselves feel better about themselves. If this is as huge a success as it could be, other clubs will cotton on and do the same, and the worst case scenario for these media darlings is the PL actually becomes competitive from top to bottom again. I can't believe some of you fell for this so easily and are sucking up to people who despise you.
Good summary from Soccer News: http://www.soccernews.com/hull-city-changing-name-goes-tradition/134109/?
They have paid for passes so that's why they will go to the games. You are a dimwit thinking anything else.
But didn't old man Allam offer refunds on season tickets for fans who objected? I wonder what the take up was.
The point I replied to suggested that people were still going to games, even though they objected, purely because they had already paid for their pass. My point was, if they object that much, they could get a refund on their pass and not be out of pocket as they protest.
He'd also made sure anyone tempted by the offer lost out financially, such was his fear of people taking it up.
Keep up, that argument was pissed on when it first cropped up. Apart from the fact that we're still Hull City.
http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/...a-refund-over-tigers-name-change-8951815.html He offers to buy season passes back at full price on a pro rata basis. Unless that has changed, I don't see that as too bad a deal.
I am keeping up, clearly it's affecting you and I'm loving it At the end of the day you're all hypocrites if you are trying to fight our owner, all the while enjoying what he has given us. If your convictions are as strong as they are, you wouldn't show up to games as a form of protest. WANT THE CAKE AND EAT THE **** OUT OF IT
The name hasn't changed yet. Why would anyone who didn't intend to support Hull Tigers because they were a Hull City fan stop going to see Hull City games? Surely they'd want to follow Hull City to the end.
If by getting to me, you mean I see your name and think, oh,it's that boring thick kid again, yep I guess you're getting to me. Is that your goal on here, to 'get' to people? As it is you're failing, if you were succesful, with that as your only goal, you'd probably be banned. Either way it seems pretty sad and pointless. In reality, you're simply churning over arguments that were long since shown to be nonsense. Other than looking a clueless tit, I'm not sure what your point actually is.
