Suitedandbooted - do you not want non-hullites to support this club, I know some will call them "plastics" if we stay in the PL for a good few years and attract fans from outside the area. But is it not about increasing revenue and if we get an extra x thousand number of fans is that not one additional revenue stream - which CTWD say they will present to the owners after the announcement is made by the FA on the 9th. Hope that is brief enough for the Sun readers on here
I question why they choose to support a team they have no affiliation to, much the same as we all do when questioning why some random from Hull is walking around in 'pool top. I see no distinction between the two.
Happy nails it again! (Abley supported by Patty!). For me, it's not just about whether the name change is right or wrong, but it's 'interesting' reading with some impartiality how people defend or justify their cause, their integrity or lack of, their consistency, etc etc. In this thread, the CTWD gang throw 'disciples', 'blind faith' and whatever allegations. Rather ironic? Still no credible response (bar Obi who unfortunately went off into fantasy land toward the end). As Happy eloquently states "Seems to boil down to certain xxxxxx demanding reasons for supporting the club and the Allams, then when they get them, they have absolutely nothing at all and end up resorting to petty insults and frankly childish chatter. You got what you wanted, and yet you still whine about it." AA is (rightly) accussed of turning some fans against him and the name change by what he comes out with, it seems to me that some members of CTWD are equally adept at doing the same for their cause. There seem to be few notable exceptions.
Because Hull were in the premier league. 3rd. I thought they were going to be the next big thing so jumped on early. Wondering if I made a mistake now, not much success to brag about.
Cheers Driff, the thread served its purpose though, they've proven they have no tangible or decent argument against the club or the name change, they never did have. It was always about a select group who think they're holier than thou, who don't want the club to get past the 70s and 80s which is where they're stuck. Simply put, they don't want success, they think every football fan should only ever support a club within 2 miles of their birth and that the best bit of a game is screaming abuse at other likeminded neanderthals from the other team. The football is secondary to them. They also expect and demands standards of others that they quite clearly are not capable of meeting themselves. They think they're clever swamping this thread in noise but I'm happy to say that more and more people are seeing them for what they are, and they peaked months ago with membership signups, which says it all really.
All this thread proved, is that you're an obnoxious little prick. Not that we needed any further proof.
Blind faith is something people, who support the Allam's in this unnecessary event, have adopted. Ehab's even said there's nothing to it and you still bang on about it. Do you actually believe people would agree with them when they're not getting any information on the subject? There needed to be transparency in his business dealings and there wasn't any.
Quite a few generalisations in there! And for balance, should be acknowledged that there are some exceptions. But yep, basically fair enough.
