This is the M K M Stadiuuuum

Doesn't work.

I do like MKM's statement saying it is home to 2 clubs, and their branding has to reflect the identity of both clubs

Interesting statement from them. Mention of both clubs and other events at the stadium.
I wonder if they have made certain stipulations to the SMC as part of their sponsorship agreement.

Noticed that too and it's a good sign, a plus of having a local brand on board. A National based company won't know HullFC and could easily get influenced by the SMC on the plans...

The impact was already lost with switch to KCOM in fairness.

“This is the MKM” could work a bit better
