What's with all the f**king abbreviations It's frankly out of hand now Mods Erfa Ctwd Twt Fat Fa I want action
There's still other organisations who are yet to release their submissions, the Premier League, Supporters Direct and the Football Supporters Federation will do so shortly, all are against the name change. Obviously, there's also the club, but they won't release theirs.
Just to spell it out to those who don't quite get it... The decision the FA comes to will set a precedent for every other club in the country.If they approve it without conditions then all clubs could theoretically change their name every season and the local football associations will be constantly dealing with the inevitable fallout.That is why the East Riding FA are considered a "wider stakeholder" along with the other 109 local FA's,who no doubt have less of a connection to HCAFC but might be connected to,let's say,Chelsea.If you think the CTWD protest is disruptive just imagine what would happen if Chelsea were re-named the Sibneft Sharks.That won't happen of course,it would be a stupid thing to do,but just because the decision in this case primarily concerns Hull City it doesn't mean it has no effect on others.
This is the first indicator of how the local FA's are viewing this, it's a massive result, as these are the people who will ultimately decide if the application is rejected, or not.
It's good that the ERFA vote was published. It didn't have to be. It's done CTWD a favour hasn't it? But if that's the way the local FA feel then it seems reasonable for them to let everyone know.
Whoosh!!!!! Edit: Since you've only been on for a couple of months perhaps I've been harsh (search the forum for ku de ta)
TWT if the FA back CTWD and the ERFA stance rather than the OSC. AA being OTT and comments re his CV are O/T. IMHO his interviews on TV are OMG/LMAO moments
So will I, unless it ends up with us losing Dr Allam. Hull Tigers, Hull City Tigers or Hull City, I'm perfectly happy with any of them. If it's rejected and we just move on and the things on the periphery get sorted (KC, development, HCC being nobs) I'll be more than happy. If it isn't rejected, guess what, I'm still happy. H A P P Y That's me.
