What a bunch of sensitive flowers you are. You're upset because of the title given to a Facebook page? Has nasty Mr Allam not shown you enough respect? Oh dear, how sad, never mind.

But of course I'm just a radical militant hooligan etc etc.

If only you were. You are just a small minded, pathetic moron who needs to walk away from the club and find another one. How about Leeds Utd ? That is a club you should go and support.

Leave Hull City to the true and decent fans of which you are not. As Happy Tiger says........................

Why? They'd get bigger crowds and sell more Bovril.

Wouldn't put the revenue up though and there would be less TV money than the Prem.

The TV money means we have a ridiculous system where being in the PL means that they could let everyone in free and still have more income than a Championship charging £100 a ticket for everyone, adults, kids, OAPs, everyone. City in the Championship if they had a full house for every one of the 23 home games and charged £100 for every ticket would have an income of £57,500,000. In the PL next season they could let everyone in for free, finish bottom and still rake in £99million. Football is ****ec unless something is done.

I said this when we went up
promotion should mean prices are reduced

You do your argument an injustice. £16.67 of a £100 ticket is VAT So would only raise just under around £48 million net
 
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

Exactly. PL tickets must cost more then the Championship, likewise down the football pyramid.
 
In years to come I'd imagine this will be looked back upon as the most exciting and successful era for the Tigers - seasons in the Premiership or fighting it out at the top of the Championship, an FA Cup Final, a (brief) European excursion...and those at the helm during that period will rightly be given a lot of credit for that. But let's focus on the name of our Facebook page instead shall we?

I just hope we don't one day get to find out what it is like to have genuinely bad owners (although having been there before you wouldn't expect that scenario necessary to give some people perspective on the Allams as owners).

That isn't the point though. The Allams could have been regarded in the same light as Harold Needler (though he wasn't quite the shining light he is portrayed as) but missed that opportunity by their intransigence and unwillingness to compromise or listen to anyone else.
