    It's been like that for weeks. Always chuckle when I walk past it and 2 men in suits are guarding his car.

    It's not really practical to travel around in a roller and hasn't been for years.

    You can bet the Glasers, Abramovic, Sheikh Mansour, Randy Lerner etc wouldn't be seen dead in such a provincial nouveau riche car.

    This is 2013 not 1963.

    Don't tell CTWD that. Living in the past is the thing atm.

    I thought we wanted the name to be Hull City in the future?

    Adding tacky names to sports teams to make them sound grander than they actually are is something that the yanks started many decades ago. Trying to do that here is around 30 or 40 years too late.

    That's right.

    I listen to the wireless dressed in Elizabethan garb, and eschew modern transport in favour of a horse and cart.

    Just remembered the Harry Potter chant to that speccy kid who was giving it plenty.

    Found that funnier than it probably was. Unmerited levels of laughter I think.

    I blame the stalemate game.

    I will reign it in in future. Cool again.

    In some ways the name change controversy has had beneficial side effects. Since CTWD got going the atmosphere (noise level) at home games has improved. People are never more vocal and never more unified than when there is something to moan about. The atmosphere at the KC - away from the NE corner has often been a bit limp (I am being kind there). CTWD has got more people joining in. On Saturday 19:04 just happened to coincide with a moment - on of the few - when we were looking threatening. People were conflicted between urging the team on and CTWD. It was still there just not as unified.

    Anyway, perhaps this is all a bit of amateur psychology to goad the less animated supporters into being more passionate in their support.

    Why does Mark Herman being an Oscar winner have any relevance or lend him any more authority in regards to the name change?

    Let's hope he has more insight into the matter than an aged marine diesel generator mogul.

    Actually, he could hardly have less.....

    I only remember the bloke dressed like Big Bird.

    There was more banter when we played Millwall a few years a go, and they brought a taxi full.

    I was singing in W4... got some awful looks from the people around me! Was a young lad in the West Stand (in W2/W3) who had a "City 'Til I die" banner up the whole game if I remember right.
