Hull owner Allam makes amazing attack on protesting fans

Hull City owner Assem Allam has attacked fans protesting against his plans to change the club's name.

Allam said he would not put one more pound into the club if he felt the majority of supporters did not agree with his policies.

He told The Independent that displaying banners reading "City Till I Die" and "We Are Hull City" distracts the players, prevents other fans watching the game and infringes on the rights of advertisers.

"They can die as soon as they want, as long as they leave the club for the majority who just want to watch good football.

"I'm a simple man. Do they want me to stay? If it's 'No thank you', fine, in 24 hours the club is for sale... I do not put in one more pound."
