    It will be back to tigers player for me next season. Honestly actually winning games and listening to burnsy and swany talk about pies is a lot more fun then watching us lose every week in the PL.

    The local USL team which is on TV here also has a live YouTube feed for their fans who live outside the local coverage area or who don't have cable TV. We could do a similar thing if we wanted and had the rights to our own games. Or we could do a paid service, I mean how much did we ever get from tigers player anyway?

    It's not fair at all is it? Next they'll be saying he forcefully took over an arena he didn't own, kicked everyone out and re-decorated it for his own purposes. Or that he made a conscious decision to avoid spending dedicated ASI money on fans, just to make a point, and tried to defend it by implying we're just scrounging ****s who want something for nothing. Ridiculous.

    Something like, i sold all my good hard working Championship players and replaced them with proven Premier League stars but it turned out they were all fake.

    How many Hull City supporters decided not to attend an away day fixture this season specifically because they didn't receive their ASI subsidy handout?

    No idea, but OLM has said he is one. What's your point?

    I didn't realise OLM was that hard up.

    it's supposed to encourage additional support - the question is how many more would have gone if the ticket price had been reduced - whether you like it or not Allam has ****ed up big time - he's actively encouraged away support at the KC and discouraged his own customers from going to support the team at away games

    I would say very few. How many owners didn't spend a significant part of the ASI money on their own fans?

    Well look on the bright side. There won't be any ASI money for him to spend next season.

    The visiting fans will be crying into their non subsidised beer.

    I stopped going with my lad when the club refused to say what they'd done with the ASI money, but I've no idea who else did.

    We would have had more fans at Swansea, Southampton and Palace if we'd slashed ticket prices or offered free travel.

    So even though you can afford to go, you chose not to because of principles? Presumably you'll be given up your season ticket next season for the same principles?
