No. You don’t get Whitby jet on the North Bay beach at Brid. And, unfortunately, so far don’t come across whale puke either.
Think they did it for the Omur signing too (I’ve no idea how to do one on here, but I think he has one)
Used for teasing the signing if I remember right.
I haven’t started identifying as anything else as a result though
The stripes make a big difference, you just have to look at the away kit to see how different a shade it looks when it's plain.
Doffs cap…Those are like the patches on cans of paint - look quite different when on the wall. I know it's not the same palette, but look how different the 'apricot' shade is to the one OLM posted.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.

Will he be flying the St George's Flag at the front door???
Manufactured outrage welcome...
Sometimes on TV over recent years it has looked more the colour of Wolves kit,

Black and Amber was actually deleted from our club identity twice, 1935-36 & 1946-47. Never Again.

The orange thing grinds my gears.
Someone at the club really needs to get a grip with the media, it's only been our colour for 120 years after all. Agree with that top left being the shade I've always associated with amber - time was when it was indistinguishable from Wolves' 'old gold'.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.

The 1946/1947 one was only because they couldn’t get the dyes as they were in short supply after they war. Harold Needler, as has been mentioned before, wanted to the change our name to Kingston Upon Hull AFC playing in orange and blue. The first programmes for Boothferry Park showed that kit. The outcry stopped him but he did not like striped shirts and altered them to plain ones. Wonder what our history would have been and our nickname if he had got his way.

And, 1936 was the year the steam loco carrying our name was built so the name plate was coloured blue under the name Hull City until during the war.
For me, the club has got it's identity back. The community feel is back, the passion is back, fans feel part of something again and feel valued. We have an owner who on the face of it "gets it". We're moving forward in all aspects. Other clubs, fans, pundits and football in general don't see us as the butt of jokes etc anymore.
It feels like Hull City again for Me

Well said, I couldn’t give a **** about the Turkish flag flying over the ground, it’s the least we can do for Acun after everything he has done for us
Thought this was going to be someone complaining about the use of tigers again, phew
