Thanks for stopping by, guys. It's Thursday evening - you're with

:00:00.:00:13.

Newsround live on CBBC. I'm Ayshah, and first up tonight,

:00:14.:00:17.

how important is the name of the football team you support? The owner

:00:18.:00:24.

of Hull City says he'll leave the club within 24 hours, and pull out

:00:25.:00:28.

all of his money unless the FA agree to rebrand the club Hull Tigers.

:00:29.:00:31.

Leah's been to the KC Stadium in Hull to find out more.

:00:32.:00:35.

When it comes to football the name of your team means everything.

:00:36.:00:38.

Imagine Manchester United officially changing their name to The

:00:39.:00:44.

Manchester Devils. Well, here at Hull City, the boss wants to rebrand

:00:45.:00:48.

this Premier League side as the Hull Tigers. And that's caused a bit of a

:00:49.:00:52.

row. The club's owner, Aseem Allam, is the man who wants to make the

:00:53.:00:56.

changes. He's lived in Hull for 40 years and he's been in charge of the

:00:57.:01:00.

club since 2010. He put tens of millions into the club which has

:01:01.:01:04.

helped Hull City make their way to the top flight. Yesterday the owner

:01:05.:01:08.

threatened to quit if he doesn't get his way. He reckons the word City

:01:09.:01:12.

sounds lousy and common and the word Tiger would make the club more

:01:13.:01:17.

money. But does the name of your team really make a difference?

:01:18.:01:24.

Because he has got their money he can do what he wants. At doesn't

:01:25.:01:34.

really matter what they are called. I don't like the change because it

:01:35.:01:39.

is really weird. We will be chanting the Tigers. It's not the first time

:01:40.:01:45.

a football club has made a drastic change. Cardiff City went from blue

:01:46.:01:48.

to red and even changed their main logo from a bluebird to a red

:01:49.:01:51.

dragon. Newcastle United changed the name of their stadium from St James'

:01:52.:01:55.

Park to the Sports Direct Arena to make more cash. Although it's now

:01:56.:01:59.

changed back to St James' Park again. It is the Football

:02:00.:02:06.

Association who will have the final say.

:02:07.:02:13.

Next - we found out today which movies are up for the biggest

:02:14.:02:17.

showbiz prize of all - an Oscar! The Space adventure movie Gravity got an

:02:18.:02:20.

incredible ten nominations including Best Picture and Best Actress. And

:02:21.:02:24.

the Disney film Frozen - with its snow princess and talking snowman,

:02:25.:02:27.

will go up against Despicable Me two and its minions and the prehistoric

:02:28.:02:30.

comedy The Croods in the Best Animation category. And if you love

:02:31.:02:37.

your movies, then head to the Newsround website. We've got a guide

:02:38.:02:41.

to all the top kids' films for 2014. There's big news about Despicable Me

:02:42.:02:46.

three. Oh, yes, and some very cute baby polar bears.

:02:47.:02:49.

:02:50.:02:53.
