Hull
When the Allam's were here and they had their brainwave of an idea to change the clubs name, they were called ****s (and rightly so). Since Acun has been here, has he stealthily and slowly being changing the clubs identity? We have a Turkish flag flying outside the stadium, all of the amber has been removed from the club (we're now more orange than Blackpool) and now the new merchandise has has an umulat in the word Hull. Before anyone starts I think he's done wonders for the club and the area and he's been the best chairman we've had in a very very long time, it's just something I'd noticed.

We are still called Hull City last time I looked?

The shade of Amber seems to change every few years regardless of who the owners are.
I've always assumed this is because Amber is bit of an ambiguous colour

Think I remeber someone saying before it changes because everyone’s interpretation of amber is different
 
Do the match day jackets have some sort of red V on them? Don't recall seeing red anywhere else on our gear.

Indeed they are. I think the one on the top left is the closest to the colour on the shirts when I started watching in the 1960s. Some more recently have been more orangey and some have had a hint of gold. That could be my eyes of course.<laugh>

I think all your other nonsense has been dealt with, so finally, the umlaut was on one T-shirt provided to fans on the current Turkish trip, a fairly mild joke by the club but yeah, what a bastard trying to change the club's identity!!!!

The Pantone reference the club uses is actually called Apricot...

Shows how impressions can vary. The city shirt you showed above looks a different shade to that. Maybe being in juxtaposition with black alters the perception.

I always get wound up when commentators say things like ‘Hull City, today playing in their traditional Orange and Black shirts’…

Or Gold…

Or Yellow.


I’m still waiting for one of the ignorant imbeciles to announce ‘Hüll, in their traditional ambergris coloured jerseys’.


It’d be enough to make a whale vomit.
