    The doubt and recent speculation has finally been put to rest.

    Basically, he's still all systems go with the Hull Tigers idea. Is apparently appealing against the FA's decision to reject it and has put the Club up for sale months ago.

    Now he's on a 'whichever comes first' basis:

    I.e. if the Club receives an offer from a potential buyer, then we're sold but so long as he's in charge still, he'll still try and get the name changed.

    The conclusion is that even more supporters think he's a ****ing clown who needs to either sell or depart this mortal realm.

    Sorry if that offends those who like their mother in law.

    Our owner made a fool of himself.

    He clarified that he is the owner of Hull City Football Club and NOT Hull City Council.

    Is it me or did he insist (again) that we are called Hull City Tigers and that removing the City bit would shorten the name and then go on to say that it wasn't like Arsenal's name being changed to Gunners as this is just a nickname not part of their actual name. It must be me no-one could have said that.

    It appears that nothing has changed.
    The sooner we concentrate on football, the team, the Premier League the better.

    Apparently this Press Conference was to put all the uncertainty rumours to bed. He's caused more uncertainty.

    What, speculation that Mr Allam is certainly a fruitcake?

    Smart move to offer the club for sale if he doesn't get his way, and threaten to give it away for nothing if he can't, too. Masterstroke in raising the asking price of the club from any potential suitors that was...

    Fev, as soon as I heard him say the bit about Arsenal I knew he had lost it. It was the most idiotic analogy I have ever heard.

    The "Burnsy's Jacket" sketch was quite good.

    It WAS a sketch, wasn't it?

    If you haven't got £100m, you can't have an opinion on the future of your football club?

    Pathetic.

    I've changed.

    I've changed from wanting to protect our history and our name; to wanting to do that still and now get Allam out.

    We'll have to fight the idiots; the illiterates, the HDM/Radio Humberside/Patty types.

    But they're f**ing stupid. We can outwit and out gun them.

    ALLAM OUT
