Assem Allam on meeting with supporters re name change.

I believe they were paid in full as the interest rates were phenomenal. I think Duffen used Wonga for the loans.

 

Don't know about that. When you start banging on about Alex Bruce, I certainly start to feel a bit queeezie!

 

Interviewer "And what's your final message, would you say, to the group that you met the other day, the group that calls itself City Till I Die?"

Assem Allam "Yeah, they can City Till They Die as much as they like. Nothing will change. Look it's me who is paying. They can City till they die as much as they want."

You've just gotta love him. Assem Allam, take a bow.

 

Yes, I heard that as well. Reality doesn't matter to Allam. He just says anything that suits him. He also said that if you shorten a name it isn't a name change. He also refused to answer various questions on the radio interview and the TV interview. That seems a strange action.

 

I doubt PLT cares what Allam thinks of him. Similarly, I doubt Allam cares what PLT thinks of him.

 

I would gladly be a member, I see a lot of tarting over this and just point scoring for some, No point me going on and on why iam against the name change or trying to change peoples views,(Was going to go on a big rant but whats the point)

 

I watched Hull and Rovers on TV a while back and when they showed the league table it was embarrassing - full of "Leeds Monkeys", etc. It makes you think it's some kind of mickey mouse sport. The football in England and Wales has a proud tradition going back a long time. Bringing in silly names will dilute respect.

 

Oh well I guess that's alright then, let's all call each other what ever despicable names that we want, after all this is keyboard warrior land.................................WHOOOOOOOOOOOSH!

 

One thing is the accounts that Dr Allam said will be out next week. The Guardian reckon we will announce loss of 27.8 mill in our promotion season. So the financies cannot continue without major investment from somewhere.

 

If he does sell the club I am sure the first thing the new owner would do is to change the name back. Unless he's some asian businessman!

 

According to the script the response is: **** Off!!!

 

You spelled that wrong. Should be "Fack Off!!"

 

can someone explain something to me. AA keeps saying that he's spend a ton and that we are still short of cash, hence why he wants to change the name.

Then what was the point in promotion? if we're still struggling financially now we're in the prem, then what the hell would have happened had we not gone up?

 

Maybe he will decide that "Tigers" isn't inclusive enough and he decides to use "Animals" instead.

 

You are Roy Hodgson in disguise and I claim my £5...

 

I'm struggling to accept the loss for last season at £28m

The accounts will make interesting reading...
