    Here's an idea !

    I suppose the FA would ask that. At present though, apart from the infamous meeting, he has no answer to the consultation issue. Were he to pursue the above course he could say he presented a choice of the only available options. Turn it into a poker game as it were. I don't think appearing a...

    Here's an idea !

    Be careful what you wish for, I'd say. AA could ask season pass holders the following question: Would you prefer (a) Me to leave the club and withdraw funding or (b) To accept the name change? He would perhaps get the result he wants and could claim to have consulted...

    Is history cast in stone?

    Yes, I've seen the light! Your superior debating skills and intellect have won the day. And I have some great news. We're going to win last year's FA Cup! Those schmucks from Wigan think they've got it all sewn-up and it's their's for keeps. How little they know - the poor misguided fools...

    Is history cast in stone?

    Not convinced he knows the name of the club at the moment, seems to think it's Hull City Tigers. If so he's mistaken. He knows which club he believes will become more marketable under a new moniker though.

    Is history cast in stone?

    Nope, the stated aim, rightly or wrongly (most think wrongly), is to make the club more marketable. That is to make the same club more marketable, not some other club, this one.

    Is history cast in stone?

    Nope, don't have a gut feeling. Nor do I have any idea what you would accept as evidence to support the uncontroversial assertion that the history of HCAFC will not be expunged should the name change go through. I think you know this to be true but for some unexplained reason are unable to...

    Is history cast in stone?

    I'd agree with this. That is we would either be the same club, or the direct progeny of the former club. Whichever you prefer.

    Is history cast in stone?

    Are you requesting a potted history of HCAFC to the present? If so, may I direct you to google as a start. The content of the history of HCAFC is, however, irrelevant to the question of the continued existence of the history of HCAFC.

    Is history cast in stone?

    My version of the key points of what? Clarify.

    Is history cast in stone?

    Documentary evidence and oral testimony. You're not expecting me to actually physically present you with all the books, DVD's, Internet sites etc, which make reference to HCAFC are you? Let alone all the people who will bear witness to it's existence.

    Is history cast in stone?

    The wealth of evidence to which I have alluded, which will still be available should the name change go through. This evidence will not disappear. This is not a gut feeling but an assumption about the continued existence of objects and people through time. This assumption is shared by all...

    Is history cast in stone?

    You suggested (erroneously) in post #89 that I was basing my opinions solely on the Hull Comets experience, despite the fact that I clearly only supplied it as an example, and suggested I have a play on google. Presumably you regard this as an answer. OK, so what about the documentary and oral...

    Is history cast in stone?

    Must have missed it, my apologies. Perhaps you could direct me to one of the many posts in which you've answered my question. Though it is a question which could be answered with a simple yes or no. In reaching my conclusion I pointed out as an example that Hull Comets are still known about...

    Is history cast in stone?

    So, do you agree that the possibility of Hull City AFC being expunged from history is an extremely unlikely scenario or not?

    Is history cast in stone?

    Don't understand the first line here. You asked me what my previous user name was. I answered that I don't have a previous user name. As to the second point. I repeated my non-argument (as you call it) because you gave no adequate response to it the first time. This was my assertion that the...
