Hull City Supporters' Trust has called on the club's owners to drop their plans to rename the Premier League outfit following the latest twist in the saga.
Talk of the Allam family renaming the side to Hull Tigers was first aired last year, prompting an FA council to block the move.
However, having claimed that the process was flawed, an independent panel ruled that the decision would not be allowed to stand and, while the name will remain the same this season, a fresh bid can be made ahead of the 2015-16 campaign.
"Hull City Supporters' Trust is delighted to learn that the club's playing name will remain Hull City A.F.C. for the foreseeable future in spite of the arbitration process embarked on by the club's owners, the Allam family, with the Football Association," read a statement.
"HCST urges the owners to abandon the name change application once and for all. It is clear from the evidence set out in the arbitration document that a strong and compelling case for change does not exist.
"Assem Allam stated last September that there would be no further application to the FA, but the club's statement issued on Monday was far from clear as to whether they will honour that pledge.
"It is vital that the club makes clear its intentions for any re-application before supporters are asked to renew season tickets for the 2015/16 season.
"Now is the time for the owners to show our City, our history and our supporters the respect they deserve and allow us to put this saga behind us, so we can unite as fans of Hull City A.F.C. and focus on keeping the club in the Premier League."
Assem Allam yesterday stood by his comments that the club is still up for sale should the name-change proposal fail to go through.
