    On what grounds could he be banned though?

    What rule has he broken ?

    In the absence or Polo Guy and Colonel Mustard Shirt, who is calling the shots when rogue sponsors go bad?

    Must be that James Deacon fella - MD of the SMC

    Maybe he thought the banner could've incited a riot.

    FAO HCST:

    "If they want to express their feelings they are free to do so, either outside the stadium or pay to take space. Seriously they are welcome to talk to the stadium management about buying a space for a permanent banner, ten times as big if they want. I am a supporter of democracy, I have no problem with that."

    Assem Allam, December 1 2013, talking/gibbering about the banner at the City v Crystal Palace match of the previous week. Is £2,500 enough?!

    Not had confirmation from Hull City, but it seems that while John Oxley told me he was expecting a ban after his protest he won't get one.

    John won't be invited back as sponsor or be a guest of the club anytime soon, but will be able to attend matches still. Sensible outcome

    They can't encourage any more empty seats. Soon empty seats will out number the occupied seats, there can't be much of a swing required?

    They would just look more stupid if they banned him.

    Which is why it's so surprising that they haven't.

    Advancing years has turned Mr Hawley into a grey seal in human form - his bones have become covered in many layers of blubber. The fat **** him.

    It was a photo of the KCOM on a round sign with a diagonal line drawn in red crayon across it.

    Presumably the current owners have seen the popular support of the sponsor and his gesture, and the way it has echoed round the media.

    Classic morally bankrupt regime: punish the malefactor to warn off others.

    That's unfortunate though not unexpected.

    But they really are bastards aren't they. Why a complete ban? It's totally unnecessary, he held up some fabric for god's sake. He broke no laws and didn't endanger anyone's safety (apart from possibly his own). I know he was expecting a ban but that's not the point.
