    Now? No, I've been calling for it for a while.

    Supported earlier action? You mean the anti name change thing that was successful? How would my support have affected that any differently? Or maybe you think I should join in with the spectacularly brilliant twitter campaigns?

    Newsflash: Previous "protests" were, and this was stated VERY clearly, even by CTWD, not about a regime change. CTWD if you recall, wanted to work WITH the Allams. Maybe they've finally woken up too, and if they'd done more, we wouldn't be in this situation now? Actually you'd have a point if that's what you mean.

    Wake up to them? I was fine with them until the membership scheme (which personally benefits me). I've wanted them gone since just after that.

    I see, so you were passive about changing our club name and badge, you probably booed the 19.04 chants? And now the protest groups arn't radical enough because you have changed your opinion?

    You took great delight in scoffing at the actions of CTWD, claiming that the business genius Assem Allam was laughing at us.

    He ain't laughing now.

    No. You don't see.

    Yes, quite relaxed about the name change. Badge too. No, I don't get hysterical about who we are, I know that already.

    Boo? No. People who boo are cowards and ****s. I've never boo'd anything ever. Least of all a club song I know the words to. Booing and hating that would mark me as the type of **** who suddenly hates any references to "Tigers". Soz, I ain't that shallow.

    I haven't changed my opinion because of "protest groups", partly because, there isn't any. The Trust isn't a protest group btw. The evidence of that is quite clear to see.

    I changed my opinion due to my not liking the new membership scheme. I decided that in everyone's interests, the Allams as well as ours, they should go. I do not hate them. I just think its time for a change. We really do not know what is happening in the selling of the club, despite some notables making claims on the subject, with no evidence or proof. The Allams may or may not be keen to go, I, nor anyone else on here (despite the claims) know's either, so I feel the time is right for a more direct form of telling them they should move on. I also don't think childish twitter campaigns is the way to do it.

    I make my own mind up about things, and I'm perfectly happy with others to hold contrary views. Not a trait that is reciprocated by some. Things that bothered others, did not bother me. I make no apologies for that.

    Not sure why I need to repeat this stuff, none of it's new. Its like some of our "fans", who blame the Allams for causing a split in the fans, like to start fights with their fellow fans. Barmy aint it?

    I'm pretty sure I've never "scoffed" at anything. Or "chortled" just in case you were about to wheel that one out.

    I might have made merry with some of their statements and actions, which are still funny and hugely ironic. Some of them were not of course, but we only like to reflect back on the history of stuff that suits our own agendas, so I'll spare you that.

    He is still laughing at you btw. He's not alone.

    Alright it might have been between Boxing Day and New Years Eve, but a Christmas game none the less. Could have been the one when Gregor Rioch was subbed and he took his captains arm band off and threw it to the ground in front on the Kempton. I gave him some verbal and he actually ran across the pitch at the final whistle to confront me ! Went to a house party that very same night and who should come walking in but Gregor Rioch, all 5'1''' of him.
    Don't know why I'm bothering describing a game from those days, me being a Premier League whore and all.

    I aren't one who would describe you as aPremier League whore as you well know.

    Only time City have lost at home to Rochdale in a league game that I can remember was in February 1998. I have a reason for remembering that game.<laugh>

    Was it a Gregor Rioch impersonator as he was 5'11. I know you are tall but didn't think you would tower over him that much.

    He shrunk when he walked into the kitchen believe me. I don't believe he was 5' 11'' either, maybe if he was wearing a pair of platform boots. Not saying you called me a PL whore. That was a reference to a post about people supporting City at home this Boxing Day. My point was it's not that long ago when we couldn't get a crowd of 5,000 on Boxing Day at home, I thought it was against Rochdale, maybe it was another one of footballs giants who used to turn us over on a regular basis at Boothferry Park at a time when the majority of those harking on about PL whores and boycotting games were either not born, following FC or HKR or a PL team from the pub. I say that because there wasn't many following Hull City when we were ****5e.

    The best time for action against the owners was at the beginning of the madness, you and others like you gave them permission to carry on. There are many, many examples of your unequivocal support for them but as I'm busy I will summarise: you are a hypocritical tart.

    Have I still got a club? Yes? I didn't back anything wrong at all then did I?

    The best time for action was at the start of the madness? Back you mean when the actual protest group formed, and campaigned against the name change and...to restore relations with the Allams? Who've turned out to be a bit more bonkers than anyone thought? So back when basically everyone gave them permission to carry on, as long as they dropped the name change which they lost.

    Hahahaha! Brilliant. At least I've stuck to my guns eh? You're not pretending you campaigned for them to go! Just brilliant.

    If Id said one thing, and meant or did another thing, that would make me hypocritical. Which I'm not, because I've always stuck by my convictions.

    You on the other hand are a deluded **** who seems to be suggesting back in the day, the protesters all wanted the Allams gone, when, they did not. Go look at HCST/CTWD websites, they stated, quite categorically, they weren't looking for a regime change. I guess they (and you) are all hypocritical tarts now eh?

    My stance has never changed. You are the one who argued against anyone and everyone that was against the Allam's, ridiculed everyone that campaigned against them or their decisions, and then have the nerve to tell the Trust that they aren't doing enough to get them out. I was wrong about you being a hypocritical tart, you're a hypocritical ****ish tart.

    Boycott it, Chazz.


    'Tis a far, far greater thing you do.

    A sacrifice for the greater good, as it where.


    You know it makes sense, as much as it pains ya.

    You wanted the Allams gone right from the start? What did you do to push that case forward? Angry internet posts? Well done you!

    I argued against a lot of bollocks that was claimed, on and offline.

    The Trust didn't want them gone back then.

    They do now, but they're trying to do in a way so that noone really notices. I'd assume given your stance you're not happy with that decision either?

    As I've said before, you're one of those "online vocal types" who don't like anyone disagreeing with them, your way is the only way and you're always right. Always first to screech about how right you were, how terrible other fans are, you were the only one who stood up when it mattered, etc etc.

    Other than success, money and a football club you own, you're a lot like the hated Allams.
