If you want to see it that way. In the same way that my customers "blackmail" me by not buying my product if they don't like it.
I'm seem to recall you asking me (and demanding others to) say what we'd do if the name change happened. So its sweet of you to vote against the name change just for me. I appreciate it, but its not necessary. I'd rather you voted for what you feel is right.
question... will the name change effect season pass sales next season? if it stops certain people going, do we really want them at the club anyhow? plastics that support the team "only if they're in the PL" or "only if they're called Hull City"
So people who have been going for decades, since we were ****e, at the bottom of the Football League, you would consider 'plastic'? Liking your logic.
There is a difference between a team and a football club. Teams come and go but there's only one Hull City. For you nothing changes if the name changes, for me it does. You can call me any name you like, it won't change how I feel.
Plastic is supporting a team just because they're in the PL. Supporting Hull City and only Hull City because they're my only team is the complete opposite of being a plastic.
Makes me wonder why certain posters change names and log ins as often as they do. It's as though some are trying to avoid the scorn their previous reputations earned them.
Surely, those are the exact arguments the one's in favour of changing are saying. Yeah you can change the name as long as we're in the top division, playing the best teams. Seeing the best footballers come to the KC every week. Identity means nothing so that I can see Suarez, Rooney & Stevie G every week. If we're Hull City we'll be relegated back to the bottom division.
Phil Buckingham of the HDM has just tweeted: @PJBuckingham: FA committee has recommended #hcafc's proposed name change to Hull Tigers should be rejected, reports @pkelso
Sky Sports News reporting FA Committee to recommend rejection. https://twitter.com/pkelso/status/445578419703926784
That is good news, so you can bet your life it will not be a straight forward question "Do you support the name change or not" it will be a loaded question.
The campaign is not about constantly chipping at the Allams. It is about showing that this one decision is massively flawed. I'm sorry if that doesn't suit your purpose. Perhaps you need to set up a more militant group, because CTWD isn't spoiling for the fight that you favour.
Simon Clark ‏@simonhul 3m It seems the @FA will reject name application as they're not convinced by the commercial opportunity argument #hcafc No surprise whatsoever there.
