Small orange banner appeared in the North Stand before the game, and then again in the 19th minute.

In the South West corner a bigger, more Hull official looking banner appeared at the same time.

That was it in a nutshell. Went to take a pic of both but I wasn't quick enough.

IF that vote wasn't as bent as an African election, then that's pathetic. 2/3 of STHs not voting is apathy on a grand scale.

Those who do nothing deserve all they get.

I don't believe those results for a second.

No independent verification, not an anonymous ballot, loaded questions - all total rubbish. But then I'd have thought that whatever the result. A referendum of little merit.

What were these loaded questions?

The SayNotoTigers campaign collected 13,824 signatures - just scanning the signatures, there seem to be a large proportion of fans from other clubs signing it.

Were these campaigners a noisy minority?

It was a poll Putin would have been proud of.

Loaded options ( name change and the Allams not selling up as a joint option ).

Voters' ST number / name on each ballot paper, leaving open the possibility of future 'consequences' of your vote.

The question was loaded to imply that voting No would result in mean the Allam family walking away - as they had threatened to do.

Please choose one of the following...

• Yes to Hull Tigers with the Allam family continuing to lead the club.

• No to Hull Tigers.

• I am not too concerned and will continue to support the club either way.

It just required a simple Yes or No. This circumstance reminds me why I am so relieved that we have a lifelong Albion fan running are club. And also that the famous 'not for profit' clause was re-inserted all those years ago.
