    We all do what we do, it's an individual thing.

    What revenue stream - I have never seen anything credible to endorse the name-change proposal as an added revenue stream - maybe the opposite. Any club can be sold at any time, we can only fight the causes before us with this owner and that is the name-change - it always has been for me.

    <doh>

    You said the FA like us being in the top flight. Just because you don't remember saying that nonsense doesn't mean you didn't say it. :biggrin:

    " The views expressed to me by several supporters is that they like us being in the top flight and if the price paid is a change in the clubs name, they may not like it but they will not stop going if it changes."

    Read this again. The views expressed to me by several supporters!!

    Utterly disgraceful by the plastics and clueless muppets. No proper / decent or genuine fan would stoop so low.

    All the boo-ers can now go and ""do one"" imo. Deano is well within his rights to agree with the name change without the boos.

    You have stated on here that you don't attend home matches in protest against the name change. I talk to several people from the club, the OSC, HCSS and HCST at most games. I am not trying to impress, just stating that from my point of view and in my opinion there has been a sea change in how the people who I speak to see the name change going. Just in the supporters who sit in the same row as me there is a change. I don't even know who they are, but they are not the flask and blanket brigade, they do not like the name change, but feel that it will happen.

    As I said the conversations this week have been about the banner and it generally led on to the attitude of the club towards supporters and moved on to the name change as it nearly always does.

    If he's prepared to consider alternative income streams then he needs to step back and invite the new supporters' trust to a meeting to discuss the future. He may have done this already but every time the heat gets turned up it becomes more and more difficult to find a mutually beneficial solution.

    There is no way that Assem Allam will speak with HCST. Its a false hope. The Communitty Asset application adds just another nail in the coffin.

    He talks openly about his depression and challenges with alcohol and I applaud him for it as it takes courage and it might help another sufferer. The fact that you would prefer him to 'kept it private' and suggest they he's even using it to somehow promote himself, says all it all, ignorant fool

    Would you like to start a conversation about how many people sign up for a thing out of the total pool available?

    Here's a clue: CTWD membership.

    Over you to Einstein.

    Surely, as they seem to think the Allams should do over the first decision, they won't be hypocritical and they'll accept it with good grace?

    No?

    There's only one person lacking any grace and he's called Assem.

    The decision was made, our owner is trying his best to ignore it, petulant child that he is.

    No, it was said to me in private and it will remain that way. The jist of the conversations was that the fight was a long way from being over. To be honest OLM, I do not even know how much involvement or influence they have in HCST. I doubt that there are many in HCST who know me anyway as I said the conversation was mainly about the banner and supporter involvement. Remember your inside view of who has or had influence in CTWD and mine from the outside may differ.

    No. What he did was take his tales of woe to the papers to see who would give him the highest financial reward for his "plight".
    It had **** all to do with helping another sufferer imo.

    Fine, I'll assume it wasn't actually any influential member of CTWD.

    As you were.

    You're talking rubbish mate, there's no legal crux revolving around the poll. It wasn't even part of Hull City's submission to the FA, and the PL's guidelines don't specifically ask for one.
