    OK, yeah that's a fair point

    I'm certainly pessimistic while they're here...I'm just allowing myself a small bit of optimism that they are going to sell before the end of the season (it is though, as the say, the hope that kills you!)

    I'm sure the deposit won't have been non-refundable. More likely paid into an escrow account.

    It was non-refundable, the Allams got to keep it when the deal fell through.

    It increasingly looks like it is part of a 'being completed' takeover.

    Depends how they brokered the transfers. That £6m could have just about financed the initial installment of all the transfers if they were done over the length a period of something like 3 years.

    Mason is rising to £13m with add-ons, Marshall is rising to £5/6m with add-ons too. Add in the small fees for Weir, Keane and the loan fees for Henricksen and Mbokani. It's just about manageable.

    As Hull City Tigers Limited is owned by Allamhouse the deposit would have been paid to them as the sellers, not Hull City Tigers Limited. If Hull City saw any of that money it would have been a further loan.

    Escab doesnt know one end of a horse to another so he'd have no clue where to find an international manager..

    Well, to be fair, Ehnob does know a fair bit about horses. He knows fc_uk about football though.

    This doesn't feel like an Allams appointment at all. It's been done too quick, generally they've taken a while to appoint any gaffer.

    In the summer they wouldn't let Zola bring in his own backroom team, it took Phelan ages to get his together and now it's all going to be done pretty instantly.

    There was no money in Jan for Phelan but him and most of his backroom staff have gone instantly. That can't have been cheap!

    Now we have quite an exciting coach coming in, but he must have been guaranteed money to spend otherwise why would he bother coming?

    If the Allams wanted us to have a chance of staying up then why try pretty much everything in their power to take us down?

    Easy mistake to make I'd say.

    Just a thought ........ it hasn't been announced as signed sealed and delivered yet. What odds on Ehnob fc_uking this up too? Or MS realising at the 11th hour what a circus he's come to after he arrived today?
    It would hardly be the first time would it??

    if SB or MP had spunked the money on ****, there'd be uproar!
    I think the Allams are canny.
    but you lot are just too ****ing shallow to think deeper

    What's the general opinion now on if there's a takeover close?
