    I think this is all Allams fault.

    I thought we had, too. I thought you finally responded with something like 'there is no way the club will work with CTWD or the new Trust'. I thought it was an informal arrangement with Moody, without senior management consent.

    Long may that continue. The FA are the biggest Fcuk-up merchants going. They might be the Knight in Shining Armour to the NoNameChange group, but that does not alter their complete ineptitude on a wide rage of issues.

    I never said the FA where perfect, but they are still the governing body.

    So you're basically saying everyone should ignore the FA rules and regulations and do what they what?

    That would be farcical.

    That already happens. The Premier League completely dominates the FA.

    Depends on the rules and regulations doesn't it.

    In general The FA is a completely worthless organisation as it has virtually no power. It will never do anything, no matter how necessary or beneficial it is for football, that contravenes the wishes of the Premier League.

    I'd like to hear what Deano has to say himself.

    I was in Mumbai last May, I wore my Hull City shirt with the full name on it.. Mumbai is a cricket city, virtually nobody is interested in football

    If you want football go south to Goa - ex Portuguese and more footie orientated.

    Richard Scudamore has come out and side he doesn't like the idea. So Allam's would be going against the Premier League too

    What a car crash of a statement that is. Reads like a forum post.

    That's because the local football club is called Mumbai City. If they changed their name to, er, Mumbai Tigers...

    But I hope they don't do that because it would cost our club millions in lost revenue.

    I'm starting to think you're actually a little on the dim side, you often seem to miss the point of things and half the humour on here whooshes way over your head.

    You have to admit it's a teeny bit amusing that what with the crying and tantrums over the clubs name, hashtags and Facebook names etc.

    All supposedly sending out conflicting, misleading and wrong names and confusing people.

    HCST which was meant to be a clean slate and would attempt to appeal to a wider range of support than CTWD is using the CTWD website to post stuff signed by the CTWD Secretary.

    For all the anger and angst aimed at the club, you seem desperate to emulate them.

    Now I'm questioning your intelligence. Obviously it's a case of I'm still getting to know your posters so not aware of everyone's sense of humor yet. The same is clear in reverse. I didn't miss the point, I didn't really have any input on it so haven't read anything more than the op's link. I just point out things that tickle me, which in this case was the way the statement was worded which was god awful and made me chuckle. Clearly my humor went whoosh over your head. Don't let it bother you, it's not a big deal<ok>;)

    Yes - there are a few, but I, like many other Supporters, am thoroughly bored with the whole name change thing & now that the HCST has shown its true colours as just the CTWD (with a new name ironically) in another guise I shall not be joining. I was hoping that the HCST would be a new group representing all supporters - not just the anti-Allam CTWD in disguise.

    All our network social media and website domains will change as soon as it's practical to do so, they've all been registered already and it's just a case of switching them over(some by third parties), they'll all be in line with each other soon and frankly you'd have taken the piss even more if we'd decided to remain City Till We Die.

    And though we've moved on from a campaign group to a trust, protecting the heritage of the club remains one of our aims and committments.

    You seriously think any group representing the fans of Hull City could completely ignore the name change nonsense?

    It's the elephant in the room, it can't possibly just be ignored.

    Oh, they're not Anti-Allam, they're just Anti-NameChange.

    They still want him to stick around and plough his millions into the club.

    Yes, but a nasty smelling turd will always be a nasty smelling turd, no matter what it's called.
