    Firstly that time seems a long way off yet. But even if he does sell and we keep the name why can't they become a supporters trust long term? There's clearly a lack of groups for City fans to have a voice.

    Almost as ironic as him defending Allam and calling someone else stubborn <doh>

    It pisses me off that as recently as a few days ago it was considered taboo on here to criticise Allam, yet people routinely talk absolute unsubstantiated crap about CTWD who have done nothing but good and been always respectful. Any criticism Allam gets has been earnt, but the same simply can't be said of CTWD.

    I hear that CTWD are putting a bid together...So far they have raised £32.65, a dog eared copy of Mayfair, featuring Linda Lusardi, a David Bowie album and three cans of Special Brew.......Andy Dalton said he is quite prepared to throw in his push bike if it seals the deal....Allam is said to be interested...

    Blame the Allams or blame ctwd? I think one party has gone unnoticed and was probably the main cause. I truly believe that if the council hadn't rejected plans of AA buying the stadium the name change wouldn't be on the cards.
    Firstly I'm going to be honest with you that at first I wasn't bothered about the name change, I swayed towards the idea of voting no when we had heavy handed stewards at the home game last year regarding the no to hull tigers banner and have quietly been on the side of ctwd. However after hearing the interview it got me thinking and are we blaming the right culprit? I mean yeah he is losing it and making himself look like a fool, but the man has said he can't take the club any further because of obstacles in our way. I honestly believe that if the council sold the stadium we wouldn't be in this predicament as allam would be getting income elsewhere, it would also be easier to sell the club.

    Dunno who they are?

    There's no doubt the council are a problem, but an owner who cares about a ground development more than his own personal pride would be able to sort something out, and the problems with the council are no excuse for what Allam has done in the last year, and continues to do.

    They were the main instigators and push behind Tigers 2000, which was a quite successful protest group/fans voice group back in the day. You must be too young to remember them as they were in the papers all the time fighting our corrupt owners. Unless she's given up football, I'm surprised she isn't very vocal about what is happening right now. She's the only one missing from the old guard.

    You all need to remember that CTWD is no longer a protest group, its focus is creating a Supporters Group by absorbing/taking over the Tiger Co-Op.

    Allegedly.

    The HDM ? You mean the same old few people commenting ? Not sure how anybody could take that remotely seriously as indicating anything . Bitterly divided with even fewer facts than here and a lot of rugby fans

    He's a liar, an unscrupulous manipulator and a shameless blackmailing bully; don't let's look for options, as there aren't any. :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Aye, and the one that CTWD is taking over, so they can neatly slip into the places they can't currently, and as there can only be one...it's them.

    You need to remember the supporters trust thing was rekindled by Mr Allam himself, suggesting that in the future he would like to see the supporters owning a share of the club. Unfortunatly ( for them ) some members of CTWD took Mr Allam at his word and began to look into the possability of such a trust.

    How's that Fez? Have they reverted to being a protest group and dropped the supporters trust idea? Got a link for that?
