    If anyone is seriously still thinking the majority want the name change:

    Note how many people don't sing on 19'04"

    Start your own Hull Tigers song and see how many join in.

    Is that your criteria?

    If so 11000 in the West Stand, about a few hundred tops singing.
    East 6000 about 3000, maybe less maybe more.
    South 4000 about 1000.
    North 2000 capacity a handful.

    I thought we'd put a stop to new threads about name change unless it was something significant?

    Unfortunately, other than this song, only around 10% of the stadium sing anything!

    Hardly anyone sings at home games, and even then it's abundantly clear that those who do are vehemently against the name change. No one sings pro Hull Tigers songs, yet the CTID is comfortably the loudest every game. So nice attempt to put your spin on things but that's a load of **** and you know it.

    I mentioned this in response to the guy on about his coach being full of pro-Hull Tigers people. Today is an away game and like every away game, there'll be almost everyone singing CTID on 19'04", louder than any other song. It's easy to twist a load of **** on here and come up with daft ways to pretend there's this extremely silent majority, but at games no one supports Hull Tigers, and everyone is passionately against changing the name. There's none of the bollocks you see on here about it in real life.

    I'd love for you, Happy or someone to go to an away game and actually try to get some Hull Tigers songs going, see how much of a 'majority' you really are.

    How many of them recently made moves to change their name in order that traders could sell a dozen more counterfeit shirts in Asia?

    Wrong.

    They're really really biased mods on here who ruthlessly persecute the foam-handed 'It's his club, he can do as he wants' clique <laugh>

    He sneered at our fans actually going to the game while he stays at home. These sort of comments only help Mr Allam.

    What's wrong with having a new thread for discussing new articles??? I agree that endless new threads giving individual opinions should be merged but having a new thread for a new article is reasonable. It's a great way of brining new articles to people's attention.

    Makes a good point at the end "Allam is a guardian of the club, not its parent. There is a big difference"

    It's like having your sons step dad trying to change his surname because he thinks your birth names lousy and common!

    A lot of this has been said before, but bear with me......

    We've been Hull City for over 100 years
    We've been nicknamed 'Tigers' for about a year less
    I doubt anybody objects to being marketed/promoted as Hull City - 'The Tigers' anywhere in the world
    Marketing and promotion is going to need expert (and possibly costly) expert work
    Performance on the pitch and in League and Cup competitions can only make the above task/s easier

    Now where in that lot ^^^^^ does it appear obvious that it is necessary to re-brand the Club as 'Hull Tigers'?

    "Crack cocaine is the freebase form of cocaine that can be smoked; it is said to be the most addictive form of cocaine. Long-term side-effects can include irritability and mood disturbances, increased frequency of risky behaviour, and delirium or psychosis"

    I think I'm onto something.

    It was **** having the top page filled with name change discussion threads, about 10 separate threads each for a separate **** article with nothing new to say on the matter like every other **** article on the name change, and everyone on them all arguing about the same ****e over and over again.

    Then it spills over and infects every other thread be it about a transfer or an off topic thread about someone dying.

    The board has been far better since limiting general name change bollocks like this into one thread of its own. It's yesterday's news, boring as f**k, been done to death and no one save a small minority gives the slightest **** anymore.

    Anything that can be said, has been said, a thousand and one times over, and nothing can change or be done about it until April now. Every new thread that pops up is just another revolving door regurgitating the same endless cycle of **** that's been repeated time and time again for 6 months now. Every meaningless thread started about it now should rightfully be deleted or at least merged into the official name change thread.

    If we continue to play like today, the fans in the Far East are going to love us.

    I'd agree with that Bob, if only the small clutch of posters who are supposedly not bothered about the name change also stopped starting threads offering their arses & souls to AA along with trolling every thread they can with their inane drivel.

    It's AA's own disciples that have made the whole debate anti Allam. There is no logical defence to the proposed name change & no reasonable argument has been made for it. These small clutch of disciples have therefore repeatedly swung the debate to an anti Allam one rather the anti name change they should be discussing but are obviously unable to as there's no reason to change it.

    Each time something new appears on the NCT it is immediately trolled by AA's disciples, repeating their irrelevant baloney & diverting attention away from the subject matter. That's why it should be closed.

    It may help, in fairness, to open a thread in which AA's disciples can each offer self sacrifice & bare bottoms to their renowned leader.

    Agreed Ben. There's 2 sides to the argument and it's AA's disciples mostly at fault for bringing it up all over the place. Maybe a name change thread solely for the name change and an Allam thread solely for brown nosing or abusing, whichever takes your fancy.

    One things for sure we can't be doing with multiple threads popping up on a daily basis again because bill the butcher says no to hull tigers or Garry the green grocer thinks it's a marvellous idea.
