Currently researching the Allam reign in chronological order. A THREAD #HCAFC
So far they've tried to blackmail the council into giving them an entire stadium & the land surrounding it for nothing by threatening to move City to Melton, increased season ticket prices (after suggesting tickets will be £5 or £10 upon taking over) #HCAFC
Removed any pictures relating to Hull FC in the stadium City share with them (offering to put them back up for a price), suspended and sacked Nick Barmby, started sending emails out from 'Hull City Tigers', labelled the word City as 'lousy' and 'common' #HCAFC
Announced a name change with zero fan consultation one day before Andy Dawson's testimonial, promised to speak to fans about name change, spoke to fans, promised them they wouldn't change name 'if no benefit is proven' #HCAFC
Released a statement stating intent to change name 5 days later, with no proof of benefit, said that City fans can 'die when they want', threatened FA and fans that they'll remove investment if name change rejected #HCAFC
Claimed AFC has never been in City's playing name, balloted fans over name change with a blackmailing option of a) No To Hull Tigers or b) Yes to Hull Tigers with the Allam family continuing to lead the club, increased season ticket prices again #HCAFC
With some fans having to move from the same seats they'd had for 12 years, introduced £50 tickets for 'category a' games for both home and away fans, reapplied to change name following FA rejection after promising they wouldn't #HCAFC
Spent a fraction of the £200,000 away supporters inititave fund given to the club by the Premier League on t-shirts and scarves with another fraction spent on improving experience for away fans visiting KC, in direct contrast to all other 19 Premier League clubs #HCAFC
Who offered free travel/hired transport for own fans, (the rest of the fund seems unnacounted for), said that 'fans only have themselves to blame for current situation', kicked out 15 community sports teams from Airco Arena to build City a solitary 3g pitch #HCAFC
Despite the fact Assem labelled himself a 'community man' and it was the same week a record TV deal was announced for Premier League clubs #HCAFC
I'm only half way through they're near 10 years, I've missed bits out and not included mad quotes (Manchester Hunter anyone?).
They haven't even removed concessions yet or started selling everyone. Today's pettiness should be no surprise to anyone #HCAFC
