If we had just one decent (even slightly) investigative journalist locally, all of this stuff would have been blown open. As pointed out by others, we've been let down by the local media. They rounded on Bartlett and Duffen when it was safe to do so; but here they've challenged absolutely nothing from the regime.
To be fair to Obi, he doesn't say profit. Hull City will bring in 100 million plus this year but won't return a profit. The Allam's were suggesting they could bring in 10 million extra from non existent sponsors and it would make us self sufficient!
Actually your right... Sunderland supporter Phil Buckingham seems to throw stones at the Allams from his Twitter account, but never puts his name to any Hull City article.
No joke, they may even have got a reminder to vote. Together with the block votes it puts a whole new spin on the majority of 48.
He could try building up the local fan base first before boring everyone to death with his Hull Tigers nonsense. Starting with shifting the remaining semi final tickets.
It’s weird and embarrassing for him. The cult of Assem Allam? Wonder what Freud would make of it?
When is someone going to challenge them on the claim that they emailed ALL season ticket holders ? Because it simply was not true.
I support Hull City over loud ****s who cry over something that doesn't matter. Someone made a good point earlier.... How come all these supporters aren't boycotting the "Budweiser" FA Cup. Disgraceful that the FA have ****ed about with the name of the prestigious trophy after the history of the competition going back to 1872. In fact, this can't even be the same competition now its name has changed. Why did the FA do it? Oh to bring in additional revenue streams...fair enough then
Even now it's being reported the supporters voted "yes" to the name change even though this was not an option on the ballot paper. It appears they're frightened to lose the benefits that comes with PL football. It'd be interesting to find out if the weak journalism came from BBC & HDM management instructions rather than individual choices. I think many of the interviews were only permitted because they had pre-determined questions agreed first. Not so much, interviews but advertising their propaganda through the media. Any journalist worth his salt would of ripped AA to shreds, a simple push regarding HCC would have sent him into meltdown. Ask the questions report the reactions.
A work associate never got one. She never gets emails from the club. I think they take addresses from season ticket applications and can't be arsed to get in touch unless they logged your email address when you applied for your pass. No idea what proportion of passholders included an email address as opposed to mob tel no. Lazy shabby marketing done by people who don't care.
You enjoy the fact he’ll challenge the FA’s decision, despite it having a whole host of repercussions for the club. I find it really really strange you seem to be hopelessly devoted to Assem Allam.
I would feel embarrassed if my 7 year old grandson had come up with that pile of c**p. No connection whatsoever between that and the change of a club name.
Agree with all of that. In summary and to use footballing idioms: we still have a 4th Division local media that hasn't risen alongside the club's rise through the ranks. They still seem starry eyed, like 4th Division fans enjoying their 'big day out' at FA Cup R3.
Why would I need proof? I don't state anything as fact. "It'd be interesting to find out" suggests that I would like some information. "I think" suggests, quite clearly, my opinion. You are a thick ****, I'm stating that as fact & my proof of this can be found in your previous posts.
