Hull City and East Riding

Today, there was the the result of the ballot, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, about Hull City and East Riding joining together for the benefit for all.  Now anyone who lives in the area will be well versed in the animosity between Hull City and East Riding.  There is some historical reason involving water rights and such like.  The point I would like to make is that it is a pity that people could not see the advantages for Hull City and East Riding joining together.
For example, supposing that the Government gave Hull City £10 and East Riding £10.  The two areas would have been treated equally, which is fair. They can both spend their £10 on whatever they wanted to.  However, suppose that it cost £10.99 to bring a large factory to the area that would provide jobs for thousands of people.  Neither of the councils would be able to do it, and as a consequence, the people of Hull City AND the East Riding would lose out, because of stupidity.
So East Riding, all that would need to happen is the Boundary Commission to propose a unitary authority to cover the region currently covered by Hull City and the East Riding of Yorkshire, and where would that leave you?

Hull City A.F.C. Mr Allam and all that.............................

What a conundrum the owner of Hull City A.F.C., Mr Allam is.  He buys the club, and puts in £100m, of his own money, to secure the future of Hull City A.F.C.  Then............
He makes an offer to the owners of the K.C. Stadium, Hull City Council, to buy the stadium.  There are not many clubs of the level that Hull City A.F.C. are at that do not own their own stadium.  The council refuse Mr. Allam's offer, but we do not know any further details of what that offer was.
He makes moves to change the name to "Hull Tigers" with the F.A.  This causes some upset with some of the fans who embark on a campaign to retain the name that they have had for 108 years under the banner "City till I die"  The F.A. rejects the name change, and according to a recent statement, Mr.Allam puts the club up for sale 22 hours later.  He also announces that he has appealled the F.A.'s refusal to change the name to Hull tigers to the Council for Arbitration in Sport, and who knows what their decision might be.
In the recent transfer window, he adds to the squad, to assemble the best squad of players Hull City A.F.C has seen in it's 108 history.
Mr.Allam makes a statement where he makes it public that the club is up for sale, and that it has been up for sale since April, and there have been no takers.  He also make the point that he has appealled the refusal to change the name by the F.A. at the Committe for Arbitration in Sport, and who knows what they might decide.
Let me make it clear that I am not a season ticket holder of Hull City A.F.C.
I am not a regular attender at the K.C. Stadium to see Hull City A,F,C. play.
So, you could say, that I see things with an unclouded view................
I think Hull City A.F.C. have been very fortunate!  We have not had an owner like Mr. Vincent Tan who changes Cardiff City's a.k.a. the BLUEBIRDS, shirts from blue to red, because red is a lucky colour in the Far East where Mr. Tan hails from.  Who cares what the club is called, I don't, but that does not mean that the fans are prevented from chanting '"Come on City!"  Personally, I think the "City Till I Die" campaign have scored a massive own goal, and now City might be taken over by an Owner such as Mike Ashley, who has sold Newcastle's best players, just so that he could have an income.  I don't suppose a manager of the calibre of Mr. Steve Bruce would fancy managing a team in the lower divisions.  Depending on the new owner, I hope that "City till I Die" are happy supporting a team in League Division Two!
