For Hull City Tigers Limited to change the playing name they must make an application to the FA to become Hull City Tigers or Hull Tigers or whatever. The application goes to a committee and the committee put up their hands. If the application is rejected Assem Allam faces a choice. He can give up our share in the football league (including the premier league) and become Hull Tigers or we remain Hull City AFC and play in the Premier League or the championship if relegated.
That is the power of the FA. There is no way around it. When you join a club you play by its rules.

Old man Allam really does not have a ****ing clue
Probably why he is so rich and we aren't

I wonder if he'd have got so rich if, 30 years ago, he'd said to his loyal customers faces "You dont matter, you're irrelevant"?
MR Allam has convinced himself he is right, he's arrogant and only listens to those who agree with him is why he's such a formidable force. He wont take advice and clearly doesnt understand or care about business name differng from our aim of the playing name remaining. Thats despite a 3 hour meeting explaining it with evidence and history. He's dismissed it all with a swat.
His rants and interviews yesterday did more for the CTWD campaign than marches etc so far.
However slagging him off, abusing him etc will just make him more entrenched. Yes he's deluded but he holds all the cards and the funds for the success we all crave. Deluded he may be . Stupid he's not! He said yesterday they can shout all they like...
So now for more of the same but the publicity gained this week now needs to be taken to the FA Prem League etc, Im sure it is already.
He's relying on the passive, so far silent, majority to alienate the active noisey, as he sees it, minority.
So far we do have a majority of fans against change but its a mainly silent majority. That has to change. In some ways he's correct it is a few hundred that are standing up and singing CTID etc.
The argument has always been his claim of name change is needed to generate extra cash. The campaign has asked him for proof. Yesterday when challenged how he will prove change will generate cash it was clear he has no intention of engagement or consultation.
It's going to be a long haul!

Formal membership to the CTWD campaign will be launched online shortly, there'll also be an inaugural event(near the ground on a matchday) where people will be able to sign up and will be invited to sign the giant flag we've had made(that mysteriously keeps getting banned from grounds, despite us having pre-arranged for access). More details to follow...
Is someone speaking with the HDM re his latest comments about vocal minority? It now seems to the perfect opportunity to respond with if he's so confident it is a minority then will he agree to a vote amongst fans?
What happened with the idea an user came up with that you were going to submit from here? Sorry I forget who that was but his ideas were well worth investigating and might win you more support going down that route.
We're speaking with all media outlets locally and nationwide, with regard to everything that crops up.
The HDM are well aware that the majority are against the name change, they're also well aware that AA lost the plot in various interviews yesterday, particularly his final one on 5Live, which hopefully will go up on their site shortly(Mark Pougatch called him Dr Alarm)
He said there would be one at the meeting, but now he's almost certainly aware that he'd lose it badly, there won't be one.
He'll still be challenged to do one though. Repeatedly.

The 5 Live interview was a classic. Chris Cooper did a great job to follow up in his interview with some sense and order after the Assem Allam rants.
Not at all, but if we constantly say we've offered him a vote as he's so confident that only a vocal minority are against it but he still refuses it makes him look even more deluded.
facebook 174k likes twitter 60k until CTID can match it, he can just use these figures to knock you back. Can you no to hull tigers fellas lay off until after the Jan window please. He might not want to put his hands in his pocket for ungrateful fans.
I passed that post onto the rest of the group and it was quite well received, though we're trying to stick solely with the name change issue for now.
There's been various conversations with regard to the stadium and anything that we can come up with to generate more revenue, but AA does not have ground expansion as a priority at the moment, as we not actually short of capacity, we're only just selling out the seats we've got.
The January striker signing will happen regardless of what we do, staying in the Premier League matters to AA far more than any name change campaign, if we go down, he's in bother.
