Hull City name change stopped

Congratulations to Hull City supporters on their successful campaign to stop the club owners from changing the name of the football club. Well done to the Football Association Council for listening to supporter views and for respecting tradition; by rejecting, for a second time, the proposal to change the club name.

 It is shocking that club owner Assem Allam has reportedly threatened to sell the club should he not get his way. Football clubs have history and are important to communities. A club’s name is an important part of its identity. Changes to a name should not be made without support from that community.
