A perfectly reasonable post, but because you disagree you resort to abuse. This is what pushes people to vote against CTWD, who no doubt wish you would grow up and stop embarrassing their campaign.
The reason some folks get mad is that you lot keep spouting the same old nonsense, whilst continuing to ignore the old man's spite, lies and lack of a business plan.
Indeed it was, but it remains the only "independently" scrutinised ballot. And, as I said, I suspect he will go down the restraint of trade path which rather makes the F A's view of the ballot irrelevant. And thanks for a sensible reply rather than the rather pathetic "you're a twat" that the shallow end of the gene pool have responded with.
You aren't really clued up, are you? The FA can stop a club changing their playing name. It is in the rules you sign up to abide by as members of the FA. Restraint of trade is not an issue. No one is stopping them trading, they can trade under name they want as well, which is what we are doing at the moment under the name Hull City Tigers. A lot of clubs trade under a name which is not the same as the team on the field. What the FA have power over is the playing name of the team which is in the league. Sponsors names are irrelevant.
Reasonable post? It was full of bollocks & childlike reactionary bullshit. You more than many others have failed miserably in attempting to provide any reasonable argument for the rejected name change. "I'm off to bed now, I'll be back tomorrow to give you an answer" We're still waiting you small minded ****. There's no appeal & they'll be sanctions if he initiates court action. Come out of Allam's arse & see what's happening. Your ignorance is making you look more stupid than you usually appear.
The FA couldn't give a flying **** what our company is called, nor could any of our fans. The playing name however, they can dictate.
I'm not ignoring Allams stupidity. But my points are valid. I'm not saying I'm in favour of the name change, or against it. I'm merely suggesting what I fear will be the next step. I fear the effect on the club, but I don't see either side giving up soon. If CTWD want to win in the long term they will have to do so with reasoned argument, not simply by calling everyone who has any other view a ****er or twat.
You are going to lose. Again. 2517 against the name change out of a 25,000 crowd. 10%. In the long run you'll lose.
Lose what? 2517 out of a 25000 crowd? A crowd wasn't asked to vote. 15033 eligible season ticket holders were asked to vote by the owner. The silent majority were asked to come out & be heard in supporting AA. 2565 supported him the rest didn't. The silent majority shouted their disapproval straight back at him. You really are a little dim aren't you. Time for bed yet?
Allam has already changed the company name, and he's quite free to advertise it as he wishes. What he can't do is change the club's playing name (the one we all care about), and that is in accordance with the rules he agreed to abide to when he took over. Businesses are not football clubs, and vice-versa. There is a distinction. Also, the ballot
1. Our capacity is 24,505, so I don't know where this 25,000 crowd is. 2. You are a ****. 3. At least 2450 of that capacity has to be away supporters. 4. You are a ****.
Forget those who were FOR; those who were AGAINST; and the DON'T CARE lot. The real Silent Majority is those who didn't enter a vote, surely? All 9000+ of them......
