Hull City Statement

THST wishes to register its strong support to Hull City fans and their "No To Hull Tigers" campaign, being fought against the owner of the club.

We believe it should be remembered that the owners of Football Clubs are merely custodians and that whilst they, managers and players come and go, the only real constant is the clubs' supporters who would have to live with such a name change.

We call on the FA and relevant footballing authorities to make sure that proper, meaningful consultation is undertaken on this issue and that the wishes of the fans are listened to and acted upon.
