Hull City have devoted the summer to offering a whole new definition of the term “perfect storm”.
With Assem Allam, their owner, seriously ill, Steve Bruce, the former manager, falling out with Assem’s son, the vice-chairman Ehab Allam, and takeover talks with a couple of interested American consortiums either placed on hold or collapsing, the portents were never overly promising.
Having been thwarted by the Football Association in their attempt to re-name the team “Hull Tigers” – a potential move which divided supporters – an even more controversial initiative, namely a membership scheme featuring monthly payments and no concessions for children or pensioners has not gone down overly well.
