An arbitration panel has ruled that owner Assem Allam can make another application to change the name. Bruce said: ‘To be perfectly honest, as I've said repeatedly, the owner knew weeks ago that he had the right to challenge the appeal and he wanted to just go quiet on it. ‘There’s no disputing his views have not changed (regarding the name change). That’s the kind of man he is so we have to respect those views. Hull boss Steve Bruce has revealed owner Allam has reapplied to change the name of his side . 'For what he has done for the club – and I say this repeatedly – he’s put it on the map a little bit and he’s put his hard earned money so he’s entitled to have his opinion. ‘Now you are going to get some, and we’re all traditionalists, that will be opposed to it but hopefully there is a middle ground where everybody can find a solution. 'I think at the moment we put it to one side and make sure that Hull City/Hull Tigers are going to be in the Premier League next year and we can have that debate in the summer.’
