Ok, so now know you're not talking about the name change, what were the things you're talking about? I was too young to remember much of BP and nothing before 98, so I'm interested to know what went on. If the situation between some fans was as bad as now or even worse, I'm puzzled why I've never comes across any mention of it before now.
I think you're puzzled by many things. Some you don't even realise. There were threats and abuse to a number of key members. Hardly worth raking back up. I'm sure the older ones will remember.
Well I don' t give a R@ts @rse who owns the Club. I don't give a R@ts @rse who renews their season ticket or not (or why). I don't give a R@ts @rse who is only going to attend away matches. I don't give a R@ts @rse about the name change. I don't give a R@ts @rse about the criticism of Steve Bruce. I don't give a R@ts @rse about people who tell me that strikers don't HAVE to score goals! I don't give a R@ts @rse about some posters who THINK they know better than the Management and could do a better job themselves. I don't give a R@ts @rse if MY club is called Hull City, Hull Tigers or Assem Academicals - I'm from HULL and this is MY team regardless. I don't give a R@ts @rse which league we are in. I don't give a R@ts @rse if we are on TV or not. AND I don't give a R@ts @rse whether you like this post or not. Hull City (Tigers or whatever) will NEVER lose my support even though I am 12,500 miles away. If I were in Hull I would (like my two sons, grandsons and great-grandsons) attend every home game. Have a nice day everybody, live long and prosper and support your team the best way you can wherever you are and stop taking yourselves too seriously. please log in to view this image
I use ALL Hull City forums under different names because I give a R@ts @rse about open discussion - whether I agree with other supporters opinions or not. They do have a right to their opinion and a right to state it same as I do. People who post statements saying they are not supporting the Club any more are obviously NOT supporters are they? So I don't give a R@ts @rse.
Was no internet. This idea that the denizens of Hull have all been close and matey until the Allams saved the footy club is quite funny. The internet gives people bravery and encourages "I'm leaving the club that's part of me..." Posts. In the olden days they'd have just ****ed off and no one would pretend to care.
Are you related to the Akbars restaurant that used to sponsor the Calandat weather But you do give a rats arse to tell everybody that you don't give a rats arse. I only go to a few games nowadays so my support is diminishing. Am I a Hull City supporter.... yes (when I actually give them money). On the match days I don't go, I would still class myself as a City supporter but not an Allam supporter. You would be quite happy following Allam Academicals seen as you are not paying any cash to them. What if he moved them out of Hull, would you still be a supporter of Allam?
Why is you support diminishing? Nobody that I know of supports a team because they like the owners. Of course, when the Glazers took over Manchester United 10 years ago they were DOOMED. please log in to view this image They're still here! (And so will we).
Hull City loses a long-standing supporter – a personal view Absolutely spot on MIke !!! I am in the same boat driven by loyalty and devotion to my HOME CLUB which is being butchered it's shear identity murdered. Sick of the insults and absolute lack of any respect the dictators have thrown at the City I am proud to be born & bred in along with it's fantastic people. Rewarding failure simply because Bruce is a puppet. So I too have had enough How many more feel the same way?
My support has diminished because of Allam. He treats the fans like **** on his shoes. He doesn't care one one jot about the fans. He lies, then tells more lies to cover up the original lies. I am quite an educated man and my brain is telling me Allam will do anything to get his own way. He is a modern day dictator. I couldn't give a rats arse about ManU.
Just because people have decided not to renew their season ticket, it doesn't mean they've stopped supporting the club.
People can deny it all they like but threads like this show what the Allams have done to our support , divided it
Agreed. We are all different and are prepared to tolerate many things. Some fans are quite happy to go along with everything that is thrown at them. Others will put up a fight. Others (me) will not do the fighting but will happily tell him to f*ck off regarding his prices etc. I pick my games ( I still love going) but will never pay the crazy prices he throws at us. Once he goes, I know I will renew my pass (providing the price is right). It kills missing games, but tbh it would hurt me more knowing I was bowing to his every move.
Those of you who are deserting the "Good Ship Hull City" and come sniveling back to these boards next season like 'Desert Rats' with your tails between your legs and start carrying on like you never left - those of us who have stayed will remember and offer you a nice cup of camel's (from a relative of Mr Allam's farm in Egypt) urine and a White Feather to pin on your r@ts arse!. please log in to view this image You should be ashamed of yourselves.
