    Just done my own research (above) and Princes Dock Street seemed to be the first to drop it.

    Makes sense, apostrophes are often dropped for street signs.

    Anyway, back to the main point - why the frig do Hull people pronounce double s?

    i don't this pronouncing princes as princess is a "hull thing" at all. some people have heard it wrong and their friends who can't read have heard it wrong from them.

    Tiger Leisure is on the move to the Prospect Shopping Centre.

    please log in to view this image


    We are delighted to announce that Tiger Leisure will be relocating to the Prospect Shopping Centre.

    The new store will replace our existing off-site unit currently located in Princes Quay. This Sunday (14th June) will be the final day of trading at the Princes Quay store ahead of our exciting relocation later this month.

    Conveniently located in the retail centre of Hull, with the main high street just outside its doors you’re sure to find everything you need within easy reach and with over 200 car parking spaces and its close proximity to the interchange, the Prospect Centre is ideally situated with easy access for Tigers fans.

    James Mooney, Marketing and Communications Manager, said: “The Prospect Centre has a really exciting and vibrant feel to it currently with some established brands already in place and more to follow.

    “We will be at the heart of the city and our supporters and are very excited to be part of the Prospect Centre’s ethos. Our partnership with Umbro has brought great success to our retail department and this move into the Prospect Centre represents further growth.”

    Lee Appleton, Centre Manager at Prospect Shopping Centre, added: “Football clubs are renowned for being at the heart of their communities and that is especially true of a club like Hull City Tigers.

    “I have no doubt that the opening of their retail store here at the heart of Hull’s most community-focused shopping centre will only further strengthen the bond between the club and its local fans.

    “Speculation has been rife about which retailer is going to launch next and I am confident that both shoppers and our existing retailers will be delighted to see Hull City Tigers open their doors here.”

    To mark the closing of our Princes Quay store this weekend, there is huge reductions at Tiger Leisure - both in store and online.

    Tigers fans can get their hands on some amazing bargains in our clearance sale with huge discounts on numerous items across the store, including fantastic savings on all remaining replica shirts - £12 adults (very limited stock) and £10 kids - with shorts prices starting from just £8.

    There’s plenty of savings to be made on our official 2014/15 Umbro training wear range as well, with training tees at £10, shower jackets and sweatshirts at £15, along with many other great deals.

    Please note that stock is limited on a lot of items, so don’t miss out by heading to Tiger Leisure at the KC Stadium (Saturday only) or Princes Quay this weekend.

    I can't wait to walk past their doors.
    Quick question for you guys....are those opposing the name change to Hull Tigers still buying merchandise from Hull City?

    This is part of the problem, they do exist. It's the business trading name (not to be confused with the playing name)

    I wonder why I never get any e-mails from Hull City Tigers...or do I.
    As soon as I see an email from them I click on delete.

    The limited company name is Hull City Tigers Limited, but the business trading name is Hull City.

    Glad they moved it to the Prospect Centre, the only time I go in Princes Quay now is to go get something from there. I used to work in Princes Quay in the 90's in the Virgin Megastore, a shame to see how the Quay has gone downhill so quickly, hope they think of some stuff to revitalise it and utilise the space before city of culture comes in 2017.

    If that's the case why doesn't he change the business trading name to "Hull Tigers", drop this whole name change, he gets his wish and we get ours. BUT NOOOO, THE ALLAM'S ARE ARROGANT TWATS AND NEED TO CHANGE BOTH! <doh>

    I notice that there is this piece of exciting (??) news about the new store but they couldn't bother to write a piece about Ian McKechnie..

    Who writes this **** anyway? What actually is exciting about one store replacing another store.
    It is not expansion and it will probably be a smaller store.
