Nothing embarrasses me about it at all. I just think with football awash with money, the Allams being Philanthropic it would have been better used by putting a charity on the front and donating some money from each shirt sale as per Filey. The money from the Sponsorship will probably not have been huge and as a percentage of our turnover probably pretty insignificant. Sometimes it's good to give back. I'd imagine this charity suggestion would probably have been well supported by our fanbase.
At least it's getting us some press and Flamingo Land is currently trending on Twitter... Hull City have just announced the oddest shirt sponsor in English football... http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/row-zed/hull-city-just-announced-oddest-6040301? Hull City mocked on Twitter after unveiling 'Flamingo Land' as new shirt sponsor... http://www.standard.co.uk/sport/foo...mingo-land-as-new-shirt-sponsor-10380152.html Hull fans see doom and gloom lifted as Tigers confirm new shirt sponsors Flamingo Land... http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/...ew-shirt-sponsors-flamingo-land-10380488.html
Not at all, I just think that there isn't much room for morality if you're running a football club, especially one that's just taken a massive hit financially.
Kinnel, Flamingo Land have been busy today... Yorkshire’s Flamingo Land Resort joins forces with the club Boro are delighted to announce a new partnership agreement with Flamingo Land Resort Yorkshire.

will you keep quiet, the man has over 50,000 posts on an internet forum, he's clearly more important than us, therefore the derision is totally valid.
Are you for ****ing real? We can't even sneer at the ****s now? You make out like it's the fans who are being really nasty to those nice Allams. The silly bastards have made it their top priority to antagonise us with everything they do. They're driving long term fans away from their own club just for the sake of their mission to show they won't ever back down. It's a big part of people's lives they've ****ed with. Of course people are gonna ****ing sneer.
How does it feel to know that if on average, posting something on here would take anything from 10 seconds to 10 mins that you have spent an average of 170 days of your life simply posting on here....that's without twitter and without all the reading. Which must easily tally up to a year of your life.
