Normally I ignore the anoraks giving out stuff like this but I will take as many as they are prepared to give to me this time.I will show how I feel about the CTWD group(esp it"s main agende-little to do with names) by posting them in the place most suited to them.yet another example of how silly and unqualified for leadership this group actually is
Sorry i've clearly not paid attention. Do you mean the David Brown that scored the goals that kept in the football league ? What's not to like about him ?
I knew Rich was asked, and responded as expected. Haven't seen anything official from Ash. Will take "several others who can't come out publicly" at face value and finally, good for Deano, not sure why because he doesn't agree with you, there's a need to try and sneer at his view. I'm sure if he'd come out in support of you, you'd be printing posters with a quote and his face on it, but I guess anyone in support, or not directly against it needs to be subjected to the dirty tricks bollocks.
Erm yeah, I realised after I'd hit return on the first reply, so my initial comments were about Phil Brown not David!
Hey come on, he's doing you a favour. Now, when a load are found littering the area up, you can confidently blame him and his ilk for trying to smear the campaign!
I think I remember olm telling us he knew Ash personally(amongst others).I know he is not a boring name dropper but if you ask nicely you may be able to tease out something about his connections.He just hates trying to big himself up so do not be too insistent.
BBC Humberside Sport ‏@HumbersideSport We understand Hull City vice-chairman Ehab Allam met with FA officials today regarding the club's proposed name change. #hcafc Smart move not letting AA go. Pity.
PRESS RELEASE - SUPPORTERS DIRECT STATEMENT: HULL CITY AFC NAME CHANGE As an organisation, Supporters Direct believes that football clubs are something different, something special. You don’t get your ashes scattered in Tesco, or have it tattooed on your arm. The relationship between fans and their clubs transcends normal loyalties. So, like most of you, we’ve been angry at what is happening at Hull City AFC. The cases of Coventry City, Cardiff City and as far back as Wimbledon in 2002, to name but a few, have offered stark enough warnings of what happens when you leave the stewardship of important social, cultural and historical institutions (for that is what football clubs are) in the hands of a wealthy elite with short-term interests and a short-term outlook. The very identity of football clubs, and their fans and communities, is simply too important to be entrusted to temporary owners, who are generally more interested in what they can take out of a club rather than what they can put back in, and whose decision-making does not take account of the wider interests of those who count their loyalty in tens of years and generations. The most frustrating aspect is that these issues can be so easily avoided by the adoption of some simple principles, and there is no reason why they can’t be acted upon right now. - Firstly certain matters regarding the intrinsic identity of a club (colours, name, badge home ground) should only be changed with the agreement of a club’s supporters (through a simple and open democratic process); - Secondly that this requirement be included within FA rules so that it is mandatory for all clubs. This simple change would have a significant effect. It was exactly this type of reform that was contemplated by the CMS Select Committee as part of its Inquiry into Football Governance in 2011 and 2012. The recommendations from that Inquiry are still gathering dust and the deadline of a year that the Select Committee set the football authorities for meaningful action is nearly up. So whilst they fiddle, the very soul of some of our country’s most important sporting and community assets continue to go up in smoke http://www.supporters-direct.org/press-release/supporters-direct-statement-hull-city-afc-name-change

I agree! No to Hull Tloers! Smart? You're surprised they're smart? I pity you. Or, "CTWD can't get enough support from Hull, if you care about a club up north, add something amusing to that flag".
