| Quote ="UllFC"I would be amazed if the FA changed their minds, City are not a big club in Premier League terms and allowing them a name change would open the floodgates to sponsor names. If it was Man City's billionaire owners demanding to be called 'Etihad City' it might be a different matter, but the FA know that City are easily replaced by the likes of Derby, Middlesbrough etc if they go down.'"
And if they do go down it becomes a Football League issue, so presumably he'd have to start all over again

| Surprised no one has mentioned that fantastic result for City today, unlucky apparently not to beat arguably the Premierships best team, away from home. And now out of a relegation place. Lets hope for the sake of our City they manage to avoid the drop, whatever our views on wendy ball.

I went to the Etihad yesterday - my agent got me a couple of tickets in amongst the Man City supporters and I took my mate who is a massive Man City supporter (as well as Hull FC season pass holder). Because of the way I perceive FC is being treated by the Allams I went with my head saying that I wanted Hull City to lose. But, at the end of the day, my heart wasn't in it and when HCAFC scored it took all of my self control to keep quiet. When Man City equalised I was probably the only one in the stand that stayed on my seat. It was really difficult to cheer against them (actually impossible for me).
The stadium and set-up is incredible and the on-going developments in the area are beyond our wildest imagining for Hull. However, I think there's a lot we could learn at the KC from their attention to detail and pre-match own-channel TV stuff - they even had capable staff in the bars on the concourse which meant that everyone in the queue was served quickly and efficiently (btw a pint was £4.00 as was a pie). I believe that's one easy way of increasing revenue at the KC.
Anyway, enough ramblings - Huddersfield here we come.

| Great point for City. Next five games pivotal.
Hull boss Steve Bruce will be offered £15m by Fulham to get them back into the Premier League, and owner Shahid Khan has West Ham's Sam Allardyce in mind should he fail to lure Bruce. According the The Sun.

| If this is going to be a general discussion about city (and not how it affects us) can we now move it to the 'Other Sports' section or lock this one as this is a rugby forum and general discussion about how well they are doing/how you got on watching them/buying tickets and which manager is being poached where isn't relevant to our club.

| Vital 3 points for City tonight, reckon they're looking like staying up now. Hypothetically with the extra cash from the new Sky deal they become more attractive revenue-wise now, so may attract more buyers - been on the market nearly a year now with no serious offers.

Only during the day. Anyone with a parking bay (disabled or corporate) will be able to park as normal on match days/nights. Spoke with a representative from the SMC on Mondays Disabled Meeting who confirmed this.

So despite not selling out many if not any games this season, he is still banging on that he needs a bigger capacity?! Which is of course another attempt to get ownership of the KC back up for discussion.
For what it's worth I feel City could do with the East stand extension to take capacity to 30k for the bigger games, but any expansion above that is just fantasy, the fanbase just isn't there.

This the man who said wanted tickets at a fiver to see games .
Another going back on his untrust worthy words.'"
Far be it for me to defend the egotistical little twerp but..... Next Saturday I will be at the KC in the away end with my two boys. It has cost me £29 for three tickets inc booking fee. The boys tickets are a fiver each. So I'm sure he'd argue he has delivered.
Now as we were. Can't wait for city to be relegated and the little twerp to p155 off.

The last 2 sentences sum it all up....

But increased costs mean few can afford to take up the offer.'"

So no way can turn down England/Hull v New Zealand game or SMC breaking the contract

| So the SMC makes £1.6m net profit on rental income from City, but manages to lose £75k per match for Hull games.

And we hand over £600k pa to the SMC for the stadium states AP.
So we pay about £40k per game, they lost £75k per game, so it costs £115k per "event" at KC?
Really?

Interesting that the council are getting involved in their asset all of a sudden. Can the council's auditors get their noses poked in?
