    This is what I was querying above. The statement does suggest that it was 63.5% of the FA members that participated in the vote. And 36.5% were not there to vote either way.

    When Adam Lowthorpe was on Humberside a few weeks ago he explained that the committee looking into the name change and making recommendations is made up of senior members of the full FA council. This is why he said the recommendation was almost certain to be accepted.

    Just more proof of how useless, incompetent and corrupt the FA are, a proper shambles of an organisation.

    In fact in convinced those 36% of votes were bought. There should be an investigation.

    Just hope this is the end of it and the Club can move on. Would hate it for it to distract from our performance on the playing field next season. Please Mr.Allam...I love you....but let it go now.

    Do they allow abstentions, like 36.5% who don't care?

    Hull owner Assem Allam confirms he will launch a formal appeal against the FA Council's verdict to block his proposed club name change.

    I want this **** out of my club as soon as possible.

    Can't you just put a pillow over his head while he's sleeping Ehab?

    Sky are reporting that there is no appeal, all he can do is demand that the votes are counted again, he's going to embarrass us again.

    It probably worked with his ballot.

    It's more than constructive. It's all good bringing down the wall but who's gonna clean up the rubble?
