So Hull City owner Assem Allam is renaming the club as Hull City Tigers from the start of the new season.

Apparently the name 'City' is 'too common' and Allam plans to actually market the club overseas as simply 'Hull Tigers.' We contacted the club's defender Paul McShane to get his thoughts on the name change.* He refused to comment but sent us this photo.
*We may or may not have contacted him.
