Also, it's been a tough couple of years for the FA in regard to the DCMS enquiry and their relationship with the PL. I'm expecting them to try and flex their muscles here and give the supporters what they want.
Hmmm. Did Hull support Rovers when we were on our knees? Don't seem to recall anything... Could be wrong. Signing the petition as I personally don't agree with what the owner is trying to do.

Don't kid yourself Lee about the lack of influence. The report back to the Minister means that the process will now be Government led, and our discussions have been with the relevant ministers and encouraging them to legislate, just as they promised they would.
What would you put up with, Doncaster Dragons, Donny Donkeys? Nar me neither, they'll always be Hull City to me. Seem to remember their fans joining in a pitch invasion at BV in the season we went out of the league, may be mistaken, old age yer know.

Signing the petition as I personally don't agree with what the owner is trying to do.Hull were pretty much on their arse at the same time as we were, a few rovers fans started going to watch Hull when it looked like we were going out of business, thankfully they have turned things round, but it was not Mohammad Alam that did this, it has been gradual. If changing your club name improved any thing then why havent Manure, Liverpool, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern, Leeds?
