Boring! FFS how many more threads are we going to have on this subject? All this hatred and vitriol spat at fellow HULL football fans who happen to have a different opinion to yourselves on something that in todays violent world is totally insignificant. There would be no hatred left in any of you if you concentrated it and redirected it at something that really warranted it. IS have just publicly beheaded yet another innocent aid worker in Syria, that is a little more important than a name change, whichever side you're batting on! Get a grip guys.

Apologies for talking about Hull City related matters on a Hull City forum rather than things which are political and against forum rules.

Also, in terms of our club, which is more important - ISIS killing a Brit, or the name change?

Does that mean nothing else matters?

It's absolutely barbaric what those cowardly, faceless bastards continue to carry out in the name of Islam, the supposed religion of peace, it is also completely irrelevant, unconnected & incomparable to any part of this thread or the name change debate.

You could apply this to anything. Next time somebody says "did you watch the match on tv yesterday?" You reply BORING, an innocent man just got beheaded." You ask your partner / mum "what's for dinner tonight?" she replies "BORING, an innocent man just got beheaded."

This is a football messageboard, this issue is the most important thing to face our club in it's entire 110 year history. It's more worthy of discussion than any other topic ever posted on here.

I'm pretty sure that our nickname, "The Tigers" has never been part of our name until AA made it so for the parent company. I suppose that this means that, if his employees refer to him as "The Boss" and "The Gaffer", then his full name is now "Assem Allam Boss Gaffer"?

Perhaps he should shorten it to "Boss Gaffer".

Just put us into administration and let's drop down to League 2 like Pompey and start again. We'll always a have a ground because the council, wisely, kept hold of the ground for future generations. I love away days at the lower league grounds.

Since when have we ever been called Hull City Tigers?

Hull City AFC in League 2 is nothing to be afraid of.

Yes let's do that.

They may just shorten his name to Ass.

Good suggestion Benjamin.

Who is this Benjamin you speak of?

to be correct - Dr Ass sole, owner of Hull City

He is not a doctor, real doctors emerge from uni after spending years learning things. Many people are given honorary doctorate titles, but not many use it.
The rest is all ok.

Precisely. I have never heard anyone refer to Dr Nick Barmby.

People generally just use his normal name, Sir Nicholas of Barmby.

How about. Cur Ass the Barmy?

The value of his investment is entirely dependant on retaining Premier League status and he's not going to risk losing it, forget the nonsense about giving the club away, he's no intention of losing money.

Bollox that is a blow

He's doing a very good impression of the contrary. He can't string a coherent argument together and simply regurgitates old points.

AA is a successful generator manufacturer, by his own admission he knows **** all about football, as he's currently trying to prove to the world.

That were poor & idiotic the first time around.

 

[The FRENCH TICKLER]

Could somebody just pop a bag behind his head or something. That's Bruce off as well I don't think he's going to stand for that ****.

He will IF Allam does leave you can bank on that. For now not a chance.

The Tamil Tigers have such a great Global reputation don't they !!

Hull Tigers sounds more like a terrorist group than a football club
