    I agree wit that, let the fans decide.

    Just as O/T but a poster on ci has already started rumbling about our new owners. We should be owned by the fans etc etc. lovely in a fantasy world.
    It'll start the ball rolling of nothing owners do is ever good enough

    The take up was high compared to other trusts, it's got higher now, but the prime driver for that increase has been Ehab Allam (taking nothing away from Geoff, who's an excellent chairman and has also had a positive impact).

    Well, if I were the owners, I would travel to every game, and if these guys are dead serious about buying the club, I think they would have an interest in seeing how the club performs away from the security of their home ground. But these are just my thoughts

    Talking to supporters first will get to the bottom of poor attendances, as it's not just concessions, which, in any case, will take some unravelling.

    Edit: Concessions were mentioned in #6 "not just concessions"

    #3 depends on the manager, unless we get Bruce back who bought players not suited to his system (sic)

    #4 a bit rash to make that a priority, let's try a little trust as a starter.

    #7 the badge is the only bit of brand building they got right - everyone in football will know exactly who it is.

    We'll agree to disagree. You made some good points - I just expanded.

    Whoever comes in signing defensive reinforcements needs to be first priority for player recruitment.

    I don't disagree with that, but if you read what I said in both posts, the type of defender depends on which manager we get - WB or FB. CB aye, although it sounds like Harry is returning, so we still need a striker and creative midfielder as a priority, just as we have for a couple of seasons.

    Polo Twat said a new badge would be designed in conjunction with the fans. Then they lost the name change and spewed out the 1 904 badge. It's this reason why i haven't bought a single piece of merchandise since.

    All it will take is to get rid of the 1 904 and have Hull City AFC, The Tigers wrapped around the tiger head. Jobs a good un!

    I would keep the current badge but add a scroll above with "HULL CITY AFC", and another below the badge of "TIGERS".
    A step further would be corporate letterheadings with and amber band with HULL CITY AFC and current badge as a "header", and a black band with The club badgeaand THE TIGERS as the footer, this will maintain our true identity, but allow international brand alliance.

    I really dont want to see The Tigers part of our club becoming a dirty word due to the CSM idiots, used right, in support of our proper club name, it could be a great marketing tool, especially in far east where not very many people with of heard of us before.
