    There is no such club as Hull City Tigers.

    Is this an early April 1st wind up or a trick marketing question?

    £20K, wow, I might apply. Wonder if you can work from home? Can't do match days 'til they **** off mind. I'll mention it at the interview.

    This bit made me laugh

    "Good knowledge of the football industry preferred"

    Haha

    I thought the funniest bit was 'collate supporter feedback'. As if.

    Collate it before binning it.

    I've got a picture of forrester on my office wall! He's celebrating scoring against Carlisle and it was front page of the sports mail! It's was my daughters first game and she managed to get herself in the photo! Oct 2003 :emoticon-0148-yes:

      • Assisting in development of the new club website
      • Manage matchday entertainment, organising activities, ensuring delivery, collate supporter feedback
      • Assist in the booking of external advertising, radio, newspaper, outdoor etc.
      • Work with Marketing and Communications manager to implement supporter loyalty scheme

    I suppose that at £20k they'll get someone who'll do as they're told.

    No. The match nowadays is just part of the "Match Day Experience". Which tends to be pretty crap.

    They not only complain about the lack of atmosphere they don't even go to games anymore.
    I've read posts claiming it's a better atmosphere in the pub ? HTF can it be ? The odd game City I've had to watch in a pub has been awful with half of those watching wishing they were at the game and the other half making up excuses as to why they don't go anymore. If you want to improve the atmosphere at the KC spend as much time shouting or cheering the team on as some of you do whinging about the lack of an atmosphere on message boards.

    The problem with the Ultras (in my view) was that people associated them with protest and to some degree missed the point behind them.

    You are right there was a moment in time when things could have worked.
    Since moving to the North Stand, from West Stand Upper, I have to say that I enjoy the games more. The banter is better as are the chants, I am quite shy and even I join in. I am sure that someone is stalking me though, no matter where I go home and away, I keep hearing "You fat bastard". I don't mind the bastard bit, but "fat" is simply pointing out the obvious!

    There's no such club as Hull City Tigers but his/her employer will be Hull City Tigers Ltd (the company)

    So technically it is right.

    The Allams are still a pair of tossers though.
