    The last vote was a little vague, this one couldn't be more clear.

    There's 1,812 posters on this board, I hope that at least half of them can be arsed to vote.

    Not much of a choice, so your poll is just a little biased. I don't want the team to be called "The Bransholme Entrepreneurs" or "The St Andrews Filleters" say.

    Why not ask some like: "Would you accept the our team being called the Hull City Tigers" Yes or No.

    So if we vote for option 1, have we dropped the AFC or not?

    Confused.

    Not biased at all, it's either Hull City or it's Hull City Tigers/Hull Tigers.

    Vote away.

    I know you're easily confused, but this one really is quite simple.

    First vote is to be called Hull City.

    Second vote is to be called Hull City Tigers or Hull Tigers.

    You're choice, get voting.

    We are an association football club, so the AFC goes without saying.

    This is simply a vote about what the club should be known as in common parlance.

    AFC probably dates from 1909.

    As a fan, changing the name of the club has absolutely no effect on me whatsoever. I will continue to support them regardless of name.
    However, the name Hull Tigers sounds naff and American.

    But we are now the only AFC club in the country who chants AFC.

    Maybe I overthought it, but changing the name of the club isn't going to change my behaviour. So in that sense, I don't care what we're called. I'll still spend Saturday afternoons watching City.
    On the other hand, I think the name is a bit naff. Maybe I should vote for both!

    What was that about those who were against the name change being a minority?

    Actually, there's AFC Wimbledon and AFC Bournemouth, but that's irrelevant, this is a vote on whether we should be known as Hull City or Hull City Tigers/Hull Tigers.

    Contribute something worth reading to the board and I may give you a decent response.


    Or you could just **** off, troll.
