Im sure he will come up with some obscure European business law which will enable him to bypass the fa rules which they will be able to do nothing about :(

I would imagine seeing how the League do not own the club they would have trouble trying to stop the change?

But the club are a member of the league and the rule is to change the name the club needs the league permission.

The FA do NOT have to allow a name change as the club Hull City ltd play under the juristriction of the FA and it is they who will or will not allow a name change to participate in their competition. My guess after consulting fan groups at Hull, they will turn the application down, as they will fear the flood gates will open on name changes if they let this one go. They will not want American style sponsor linked names of premier league sides such as the Southampton saints, Cardiff dragons, Arsenal gunners, Norwich canaries etc etc, they will also not want a famous old traditional club like Hull City to lose its identity, pride and tradition, they will not want one of its member clubs made a laughing stock of and will not want the club or it's fans ridiculed, I think the FA will notice crazy owners when they see them :ayatollah: :old: :ayatollah:
