I'm sorry you feel that way, but I think the way this whole distasteful saga has been drawn out reflects very clearly the sort of people the Allams are. As owners of the SMC they do have daily impact on Hull FC and are very relevant to this forum. If they are prepared to subject their own fans and paying customers to this sort of distress simply because of their City Council hatred (because that is what this is all about and, yes, at the root of that the stadium ownership remains the unexploded bomb that will again be detonated) what will they do to us if they decide we are a hindrance to their objectives?
They remain a potential danger to us and it is right and prudent to examine and assess their actions.

If that is the criteria for closing this thread perhaps we should best keep it open then. The 'secret ballot' and the way it was etched in the questions asked tells us a lot about how devious they are. The SMC continue to make it very hard for our C|ub and don't worry the Stadium and then us lot are high on his hit list I'm sure of that. And folks at the Rovers Club tell me that he's wanting his loan back from them too! I don't say we should be obsessed by it all but in my opinion we should all be very watchful!

Indeed, this topic has more relevance than some others on here.

Quite. And that "soft" loan now becoming harder. Given Allam's previous for doing 180s, shouldn't really come as a surprise

Found this on the Premier Leaage website
Should the FA Cup winners, runners-up (if applicable) and the Football League Cup winners already have qualified for Europe, their place goes to the next best placed clubs in the Premier League.
Looks like City would miss out if they lost the final

| Allam's conduct has influence on the SMC, which has influence over FC, therefore perfectly relevant to keep it open.
So mote it be.

What, when he said this?," he said."
Apart from moving to Melton, claiming the sporting village had no commercial aspect, finishing absolutely any council dealings, and walking away in the event of the FA declining the name change, you mean?

THE BOULEVARD IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE THE HOME OF HULL F.C.
F.C. forever-forever F.C.: |
|
| Quote: WormInHand "Agree. Don't think anyone can take the low "turnout" as an indication of apathy.
Spoke to a colleague today for the first time since the vote. She is vehemently anti Hull Tigers and passionately wants to retain Hull City as as the embodiment of the club's history and tradition. She says a name change would be akin to removing the soul of the club.
She voted "Not too concerned will support the club either way". Astounded, as I know how desperately she is No to Hull Tigers, I asked why. Apparently, on the ballot paper you had to report your name, address and seat number. My friend pointed out that she didn't feel comfortable identifying herself as a No voter and being tagged as 'Anti Allam' (she's not against Allam and wants him to stay) bearing in mind that the following week the club were going to be allocating the FA Cup semi tickets. She actually thought voting No would jeopardize her chance of getting tickets, plus she didn't want the Allams to think her No vote was a vote against their ownership.
So as well as threats, loaded questions and dubious administration, the ballot was not anonymous. I'll wager the vast majority of passholders were reluctant to reveal themselves as No voters to the Allams. Understandably, really, with their past history of over-reaction and vengeful outpourings to perceived slights.
This wasn't a referendum about a change of name. It was rigged blackmail, in my opinion. And I admire the bravery of the 46% that had the courage to vote 'No' but thoroughly understand the motives of those far too uncomfortable or downright scared to vote "No", like my friend, who will have voted neutrally or not at all, certainly not because of apathetic reasons. They are Allam's real 'silent majority'.'"
Why would you be frightened that he knew who you was....If I felt so strongly about an issue, I'd want him to know who I was and that I was totally apposed to his plans......given the opportunity if I felt that strongly I'd want to hand him my opinion personally, not as if he could have you shot is it.
FFS, stand up for what you believe in regardless of the consequences!!!!!
