The Allams thought I was going to win that $1.4 Billion lottery we had in January. It is already back up to $200 million so the Allams are just giving me a bit to come up with the necessary funds.

Please don't change the name when you buy the club. We don't want to be the Hull Barracudas or anything American sounding like that.

I WILL DO WHAT I WANT! LOOK AT MY CV! Well resume we dont say CV here.

Name stays the same, ticket prices go down, and we get some damn nacho machines in the KC. I would do some American things. Lots of teams here do a street festival the day of the first game and thats always fun. I would do rolling ticket prices like lots of NHL teams do where unused seats go for dramatically less if they are purchased at some late point in the game. I would give away hundreds of tickets a game to kids in Hull who got good grades, wounded veterans, charities, children with disabilities etc just like my hockey team does. Teams here do these charity things a few times a season where fans pay like $15 and get an autograph from their favorite player and a COA. I would set up a partnership with an MLS team etc etc etc. Basically I would try to steal all the best ideas from everywhere and see if they would work for us. I would though, make sure the fans were ok with everything I was doing with the exception of the damn nacho machines. Your just going to have to live with nachos.

If you throw cheerleaders in, I'm with you.

Flawed argument as when you are relegated you have to increase your prices to try and make up the shortfall and charge more for what is technically an inferior product than a product that was/is better

Nonsense
There's nothing wrong with that situation. In fact at the moment I'm not desperate to get promoted because I find the Premier League less interesting, but at least you could cheer the team on hoping you're ticket prices would go down!
Ok maybe a little extreme, but I certainly don't see why you should pay more and there could definitely be financial assistance to encourage away fans to travel...by actually charging them less!

I know this isn't a totally serious post but those ideas are great. If English clubs really want to bring in more fans etc etc there are so many better ideas out there than all this name change kit change badge change bollocks.
