Look up "beddaubluebird" "townhillmagic" and "ian gibsons bookie" and all will come clear.

Annis has already banned him for the type of inane dribble hes displayed here. Hes a roathie obsessive.

I am not etalmartin you are a proven liar !!!

You are obsessed with people having usernames but you are the TROLL PINOCCHOCI

You've always been Known as 'Cardiff City the Bluebirds' yeah? Hull have always been known as 'Hull City the Tigers' and we've always been Swansea City/Town and known as the Jacks.
Now if Vincent Tan came out tomorrow (past rebrands aside) and said he wanted to change your name to Cardiff Bluebirds, would you really have a problem with that? I know that if Hugh Jenkins stated that he wanted to change us too Swansea Jacks, i'd kinda be quite pleased to be honest, and proud! I'm sure that hull have always been proud to be known as the Tigers so I'm sorry I really don't get why they are kicking up such a stink?

Had the exact conversation in the pub earlier... agree with you entirely. The only downside that came out of the conversation was that if the guy at Hull pushes the name change through, the FA wont have a leg to stand on when the next chairman decides to do the same thing, next time it might be more damaging though?

I think thats a fair argument tbh. Nice to get a rational argument instead of 'omg changing the name is so evil' for once. I actually agree with you here. I don't see the issue with the name change and it makes sense but it does then set a precedent whereby other owners will do it at their will, especially the likes of Tan, who I'm sure is definitely keeping an eye on the developments in regards to this.

That would be my concern if I was a Cardiff fan...

As previously said, one risk being its the thin end of the wedge. What would it change to next?
Also the history of a name adds to the belonging feeling that football gives you. This feeling of belonging would be diluted if City became Dragons or even Bluebirds.
Bluebirds is a nickname to be used inthe same way you give you kids or a loved one a pet name. Likewise tigers jacks or whatever.

as i have posted before most ordinary hull fans dont object to tigers as been stated, they are known by that anyway! even bruce doesnt object and is actually in favour if read between lines. its the supporters trust/club that is voicing objections, it hasnt done other institutions in rugby league, ice hockey ect who went down way of using nick names any harm, man u ect ect are a different kettle of fish as those teams are already a global brand,. think maybe people are getting carried away because of what has happened to us.

Most ordinary fans don't object? What is an ordinary fan? and did you ask them for a preference or/and an objection?

Bruce in favour if read between lines Read by whom? show me a quite where Bruce is in favour

Lets just dismiss a supporters trust ahead of ordinary fans? What do a supporters trust know anyway.

How do you kmow it hasn't done rugby league any harm?

Genuine questions there Allan.

From a business and branding perspective, yes it does. If it doesn't you might want to tell the leading experts in America.
