    Fries are a no-go I'm afraid, though the KC was built to accommodate fryers, people kept burning themselves and starting fires, so they were taken out.

    I was pushing for pattie, peas and chips to be served on the concourses.

    Just goes to show, you really do need a undergraduate degree to work in McDonald's.

    How does this help the Club Dutch? I'm sorry but the club do need our money to buy their merchandise. How will they see it if fans are buying snide merchandise and taking it out of their coffers.

    As far as increasing profit in the short term, I can't see how it will, but I doubt many buying the 'unofficial' stuff would be buying it instead of the club stuff, so I don't see it harming the club in the short term either.

    I think the biggest losers would be the existing badge and scarf sellers, so maybe an arrangement with them could be mutually beneficial.

    In the medium to long term, I'd hope that it would generate more interest in buying club related clothing and produce and the extra competition could be a catalyst for more official products and an increase in sales.

    All absolute guesswork of course.

    Never mind fries. How about getting all of the kiosks open on the East Stand concourse on a matchday?
    No-one should have to wait nearly all the half time interview stood in a queue to get a drink and a bite to eat.
    Also get those ridiculous 'We had six floodlights' and 'Hull City cannot be coloured in' banners removed and replaced with something more fitting to the history of the club ( like FC have). Plus if we have televisions on the concourse can we actually have them switched on?

    Yeah I made use of your fine facility a few times.

    So the club can't do anything on the website? That's good to know.

    Any idea why we have to pay to listen to local radio but others don't?

    would not give reasons but as far as website domain providers basically they took the football league easy version for the least cost ,.. was 2007 from what I was told .. they do plan to change it but contracts being contracts they cannot yet

    Load of fat blokes having a kick about in West Park while eating chips, smoking and drinking cans of lager. Defibrillators at the ready.

    Do you mind? This threads for ideas to help the trust. Can you post your sexual fantasies on some other thread.

    One thought for the future.

    A supporters group conference.

    Subjects for discussion could be:

    The setting out in clear terms the objectives and differences between each type of group.
    Establishing areas of community and charity work etc.

    Possible groups invited to attend
    HCST
    HCOSC
    HCSS
    Tigers Trust
    Ultra's
    FSF

    The conference should not have any political aspect, it should not be about point scoring or personalities. It should be about creating an understanding of the roles of each group within any supporter base and in a sense it would not be directly about the club we support.
    No anti owner debate, no name change debate and no personal attacks on the individuals or membership of any group.

    There are crossovers in what each group provides, which in my view dilute what could be done, if one group was selected by the conference to undertake it.

    I do not think that the time is quite right yet, but as an objective for the near future it is something that could be considered.

    Could HCST employ some of the fat blokes in West Park to buy and renovate an old blue and white double decker as a mobile public art exhibition of City Psycho away days to compliment HCSTsponsorship of the old ground art installation. The Decker could do tours for city of culture of the lost grounds of Hull, Pattie n chips lunch at Silver Cod etc .

    How do they make the wedges then? I was in the lower west for the first time in years last night and they were on the menu.
