    To say it worked is stretching a point to the extreme. The atmosphere could easily have been better without evicting people, pissing them off and splitting up the noisy fans was a ridiculous move.

    No hindsight needed, I predicted the failings at the time, and take little pleasure in being right.

    The sadness is that those involved, and those that wouldn't listen then, haven't learned. They still think they know best and still don't listen.

    Even someone with bad luck, cannot get every business decision wrong every time.
    Therefore I genuinely believe these are deliberate actions from two spiteful individuals who can actually afford to write the money off and stay just to be as damn beligerant as possible, upset as many people as possible, just because someone dared to say NO to their plans.
    Sadly, whether we go up or stay down, I fear they may be here for a while yet......

    Indeed. When i took my pass back the girl at the ticket office exclaimed a shocked "why??". Didn't have a clue bless her.

    I felt pretty much alone at that time. And it was surreal taking my pass back as people were going in buying tickets.

    But i did what i felt right. And i stick by that.

    Listening to disgruntled fans now on Humberside. This really is a ****e state of affairs.

    I agree, you're probably right JE, but it'll be packed in comparison to this season, no matter what scheme the Allams put in place - it'll certainly sell out some games (even without Stevie Geeeee).

    You can only do what you think is right, so, like you, I'm staying away until they start to listen or **** off. Preferably the later, cos I'm not holding my breath they are ever gonna listen!

    Like or loathe David Burns one of the things that he said during either the Leeds or Reading game, can't remember which, was absolutely bang on the money, he said that Hull City is currently a hard club to love, and I'm afraid he's right. The stadium should be bursting at the seams at the moment, we have the play offs to look forward to but all around there is disquiet caused by a set of ****ing lunatic owners.

    People keep saying that they need us to get promoted to get their money back, well someone should tell them to **** off altogether and we'd have a chance. Steve Bruce, yeah I know Hat, looks so ****ed off at the moment and I personally suspect that a lot of that is to do with having to deal with such a pair of ****s as the old man and his spawn on a daily basis, I'm fairly certain that I'd look ****ed off too if I was in that situation.

    I get how you feel, it is a **** state of affairs. It's only the total bell-ends don't give a toss, I know a few old school types who are still going that feel the same as I do but just can't not go, I get how how they feel too; a few of those are getting closer to packing in though ....... they're wearing people down!

    It's sad to hear, but also good to hear, fans at half time saying how Allam is destroying the club and Rotherham will be someones last game etc.

    It seems most of us are now on the same page.

    And fair play to Burnsy for his stance.

    Yes the mist is clearing, it appears, especially from the display of red cards, that a good 95% at least are now seeing the Allam's for the poison that they are.

    Guess which group might not be getting any more work at the KCOM

    Heh. At least that pic doesn't show the big disgraceful 1 904 tile above them.

    When i lived down Walton St and walked home with my St Stephens Tesco shopping, oh the fantasies i had about defacing that bastard!

    Wonder if anyone ever saw my middle finger as i clutched my (then free) carrier bag....
