    It's part of the scheme the PL were powerless to stop. If it wasn't allowed they would have stopped it.

    This was the post and I believe it was clear who I thought should lead (Trust), but the word 'might' gave enough scope for doubt that the partner in the Tango (Ehab) may not. Jeez, this is hard work <laugh>

    If he backs Silva with a similar amount that he backed Phelan with, although some claim Phelan didn't get a penny to spend, we might have a chance but it is not going to be easy.

    Just for the record
    I have no policy for 'likes'
    I 'like' things that I like
    Sometimes I agree with the sentiment
    Sometimes I agree with part of the sentiment
    Sometimes I find it amusing, even if I don't agree with it
    Sometimes I find it interesting
    Sometimes I do it by accident with my fat fingers and just leave it

    People seem to be getting excited about 'likes'
    Fez even seemed to accuse me of critising him based on the fact that I'd 'like'd other people's posts that he thought did criticise him

    Please don't be offended by my liking something you disagree with, and don't be pleased if I like something you agree with...it could mean anything!

    Let's hope we're not the last club in the country to sign someone in this window, like we were in the previous one.

    The PL rules say the club tells them how much a season ticket costs at the beginning of season. There is no provision in the PL rules for that figure to be changed during the season. As far as the PL is concerned it doesn't matter if a club's rules allow it to change the price of a season ticket every four hours. They know if a club did change its prices it could expelled from the Premier League. It's that simple. When Hull City submitted the cost of a year's membership they knew they couldn't change it.

    People will have sat in E6 regardless of which east block they bought their ticket for - it probably happens at League home games too. I see plenty of people chancing at a better tier seat having bought one in the corner. Don't blame them.

    No it isn't. The cost for a season is whatever you want it to be, for whatever part of the season you wish to view. If you want to see the whole season, you need to pay for 9 or 10 months (August to May).

    All I'm saying is, the PL rules are indistinct in the context of the scheme we currently have. And given the scheme presumably was endorsed by the PL under the provisions of Rule R13, applying the rules is hard to do definitively.

    I don't care much for how he backs him in the transfer market my interest lies in him backing his Manager's request to get the supporters at games.

    If one bothered to learn about the dance in the first place and, whilst at it, didn't try to change its name, then said dancers wouldn't be tripping over one another.

    I never said anything about Ehab leading, I said you'd said Ehab might follow the lead, which you did, then said you were talking about his advisors instead
    Re read the conversation I posted
    Pretend it's a script and read it in different voices if that helps (ideally do mine in a Glaswegian accent)

    When's it run from?

    You always post as if what you type is fact, it isn't.

    We have Memberships, not season tickets, the cost of which has already changed during the season.

    Look at the prices for the Bournemouth game, we were paying more ten years ago, what more do you expect him to do ?
    You can get in for £9.
    Its nearly twice that at North Ferriby FFS.

    If there is no provision to vary a ST price during the season, how do clubs sell half-season passes? Everyone does it.

    The rule doesn't say that season ticket prices cannot be varied. It doesn't say it can, either. It's silent on the matter. It's simply a badly drafted rule that doesn't anticipate what Hull City have done.
