what you're missing is that someone said we are CURRENTLY trading at a loss of £27m. possibly pedantic on my part, but i pointed out that that loss was not for the CURRENT financial year but for the previous one, and that it was part of a calculated gamble which paid off. nothing more insinuated.
Please get a grip.The sole reason he doesn't like the the word "ciity" is its connotation with the Council. In the past with the good works for the area he has stressed that they have been done for the CITY OF HULL. How things have changed.Perhaps he should be promoting a leopard?
There's a lot of assumption there, unless you are Assem Allam that is. Tell me, how can you be any more certain of your assumption than I am of mine? Promoting a leopard? I'd suggest you put that bottle down and take your own advice and 'get a grip'
You're quite right but to accept he has put £60m in hard cash into the club is resiible unless you you have hard evidence to support it.
Interestingly, I can't recall anyone saying themselves that the name change is a good idea. They primarily see to say 'since Mr Allam put the money etc, he can do what he wants.' Therefore, are some of you judging the idea on its merits or accepting it simply because of who is endorsing it? I seriously cannot remember anyone saying it is a good idea and Allam's past actions always seem to be the first port of call. Some people need to wake up and smell the coffee. The man has done great things for us but that does not mean that we can sit back and applaud his every decision. In our daily lives we will disagree with things with people we care about and love but in turn not disrespect what they have done for us before. So, why should we be any different to what to most of us is a stranger? If Allam can't take people not liking his ideas and throws his toys out the pram, is he all we are making him up to be? I thought as he's such a saint he'd rise above people not liking his idea and not be having a paddy in the media. As for the dinosaur comment with regards to keeping the current name, it's worked well enough for the likes of Man United, Chelsea and Liverpool hasn't it?
Go in for the kill! We know we wont get anywhere with this man. We need to be concentrating on the FA and Premier League. He's not going to throw millions away by messing up the club. He'd much rather sell it and he's more likely to do that for a lot of money if we stay in the Premier League.
What's the point of campaigning against the name change and then stopping when we are making progress by showing how irrational he is? OK, he's showing how irrational he is!
Have you heard of the term senility? Maybe when he was younger he was more alert but he seems really out of touch now.
Over 4,000 signed the on-line petition. To me that equates to thousands of fans. So where is your evidence that tens of thousands of fans disagree with me?
If he changes the name and it doesn't bring in more revenue or investment and then ends up losing money in this area because people are not buying the Hull Tigers merchandise then what will he do next? What outlandish idea will he have. Maybe all the ones saying let him do what he wants will one day have reason to say he has gone to far.
