    ....according to Brendan Rodgers. I find that quite alarming and offensive. Tan is an innovator who threw Cardiff's blue shirts into the dustbin of history for financial reasons. He has taken on the establishment and the supporters and won hands down. Cardiff fans knew deep down that the Premier League need people like Tan to blow away the cobwebs of malaise that has affected all but two of the current teams in it. History and tradition are yesterdays chip paper. Assem Allam is another example of the new entrepeneurial breed of owner. Another man who openly admits he knows nothing about football either. His edgy business manner and alienation of his core supporters by insults and crassness will be seen in years to come as a masterstroke. If the Cardiff Redbirds and the Hull Tigers play each other in League 1 in a few years, the full houses at both grounds will still be singing their names in adulation. Need a ticket for the hottest game in town? No chance. So mr Rodgers - you stick with your outmoded beliefs and your boring Liverpool F.C. whilst I proudly watch the Hull Tigers at places like Milton Keynes or Walsall. Let your club's fans live in the dark ages and be respected by you and the owners. Leave the revolution to the risk takers and the forward thinkers, the year zero Pol Pots of the footballing world. You know it makes sense. After all. it's their clubs and they can do what they want.

    Don't think we'll see many Hull Tigers converts at the K.C. if we ever get relegated. Suits me, more room for us real fans. Probably get less room at the ground if we draw Man Utd in the cup.

    I also know nothing about Quantum Physics. I think that makes me an ideal candidate to be a Director of Research at the Centre for Theoretical Cosmology.

    When he bought us Allam said he knows literally nothing about football. He's now going out of his way to prove that.

    And you think everyone against the name change will still be going if we end up in division 3 / division. 4 ?

    There's loyal fans in the anti name change campaign camp
    There's loyal fans amongst those who are in the not that bothered camp..

    I totally agree. The vast majority of those pro name change are exactly the type who wouldn't even consider going to Torkey away and instead hop on a bus to a glory team across the Pennines.

    Well that's unsurprising, as no one on this earth understands quantum physics. They're unexplainable, can't be monitored.

    They'd consider going if they knew where you meant? Turkey? Torquay? Old Trafford?

    It ****s me right royally off that a twat-faced former ****ing teeny-pop keyboard player is now the only 'scientist' that most of ****ing Britain can name. If that doesnt sum up what's wrong with the world then I'm ****ed if I know what does.
