    Yeah, but drop the 'Dr' and it's spelt Allme.

    Well
    I've just joined the OSC
    That's something I never thought I'd say, but for me it was worth £8 to are sure I get a vote with them if they ballot existing members
    I might gradually infiltrate it with anti Allam propaganda and eventually run for office !

    I joined the trust on day one you buffoon <doh> ( can't quite remember my number but it's around the 50 mark)

    But now I have two votes......so on average it's only cost me £6.50 per vote

    I can stand that

    im pretty sure a tannoy announcement and hold aloft a yellow or black sheet of card can be manageable (50,000 sheets of paper ) - i suggest that if the estimated figures look LESS that 75% in favour of HCAFC , then give it to allam - otherwise sod the F off .

    Of course Allam can't even ask a simple yes no question - it has to be loaded to soften resolve.
    (see the last 3 days of the scottish referendum - but obviously dont talk about that bit ;) )

    A 100% vote in favour still wouldn't guarantee a name change. There are other criteria to satisfy FA regulations and if they can't prove that there is, amongst other things, a clear financial benefit the FA can still say no.

    I think the FA would quite like the thought of the club reducing the prices if it went through. It would help to rebuild the bridges that have been destroyed. It would be a start to making football affordable for the everyday fan.

    He has already said that he isn't going to reduce prices when he's guaranteed over 100 million a season. Why do you think he would reduce prices after a name change? He thinks he could get a few extra bob from the Far East, then you suggest he give it away on irrelevant fans? He can't even give the fans the ASI money, and that's not even his!

    Remind me again, where does the ASI money ACTUALLY come from?

    Don't misunderstand, if you've even bothered to read this far down before furiously replying, I would have liked to know whats happening with the money too, and I'd like it to be used to reduce away ticket prices, but I was under the impression the money came from the club, therefore, it IS his. Pedantic I know but I like facts.

    Pedantic, yes. First you are a cocksucker now you're just being a ****er. The fund is from the money paid to the club (not him personally if you want to be factually correct) and is specifically for spending on away fans. You know the point I was making. You're just being an argumentative ****.

    Resigned from the OSC when Bernard Noble took it on himself to go to the press with his opinion on the name change and passed it off as though he was speaking for all of the OSC members. He isn't even the chairman.
