    "But there is a way back by showing the fans, and the city, that they have Hull City's best interests at heart – and that is by selling up"

    Finally!
    Except that should be the headline, not the last sentence.

    " .... a muted but meant farewell given to a family that did so much for the club ...."
    Eh?
    What like rip the heart & soul from the club, get us needlessly relegated with most likely no manager & backroom staff and with next to no team. Like stole the Airco Arena from the community. Lost another generation of potential support and pissed off many (most) of the older generation of support ..... and much more beside. No muted meant farewell from me, just a '**** right off'.

    Or they've finally realised a principled stance trumps advertising revenue.

    The cynic in me thinks maybe they know that there's something in the offing, and want to look as though they were instrumental in forcing them out.

    The cynic in me thinks they've had wind the club is cutting advertising so they now don't have to be Allam's bitches.

    Personally i think they revel in all this anti-Allam media exposure, i think they love it, after all negative attention is better than none at all, i honestly believe that they would rather destroy the club and all that's been achieved since we moved to the Kcom, than give in to pressure to sell(spite knows no boundaries) , on another note, i would like to apologise to a poster on here (can't find the post but remember it well) who said, when the Allam's bought the club, that we would live to regret it after he had dealing with them, at the time he was a bit of a lone voice on here and took some stick for his opinion, all i can say is sorry mate you were right, in all the years watching city i don't think that i've felt as fearful for the clubs future as i do now, don't know if it's because i flick over last night on sky sports and caught 5 mins of Blackpool v Luton in the league 1 playoffs in a near deserted ground and saw the future( another club with a problem father and son ownership) the next few weeks/months are going to be interesting. I think this relegations is the hardest of the lot to take when you think of what might have been under a stable ownership with the fans on board.

    It's funny in a way but I can empathise with your view. At the time they took over a friend of ours who lives not far from them commented that they were bad and very odd people and that was a view shared by many of their neighbours most of whom disliked them with a passion. That it would end up being an unhappy time for the club. I thought they were just being unkind and that the Allams had just been either misunderstood or even discriminated against. Alas it unfortunately turned out to be all too true!

    The end of season accounts will make interesting reading.

    I think the only hope of a sale in the summer is if the Allams have repaid some of the club debt back to Allamhouse and then reduced the
    asking price to a reasonable level for a Championship club.

    Forget Silva and his backroom staff - they're history.

    Yes you are spot on here they absolutely love it don't they.
    They just have a blatant disregard for people and no empathy towards anybody that slightly disagrees.
    They are verging on psychotic.

    Yes you can just see this meeting this week can't you.
    Marco goes in and tells him what's needed.
    Ehab tells him not to tell him what to do.
    Revelling in his power trip egotistical sense of self importance.
