    Until they stopped my site anyone away from hull could get the commentary ... I said this during my meeting in 2012 when they shut me down and they basically said they have to get revenue for it which to be fair is right as what I did was illegal

    I'm not a Burnsy fan , he works for the BBC though , clearly he can't broadcast what he would say in the pub about the Allams

    I have no idea what he personally thinks

    I like him. Had a good chat with him at Zebedees last weekend after the game. He's alright.

    Don't shoot the messenger here, but I have heard from two very separate sources (and I'll quote one) that "the club has been sold to an American consortium but all are sworn to secrecy until the parachute payments have been made". Although the two sources are very good and usually reliable, I am assuming bollocks because 1) the payments are staggered (is that correct ?) and 2) there's the due diligence/fit and proper persons process and we'd surely know if that was taking place.

    Anyone else heard this?

    Wouldn't be a surprise at all would it Lincoln. I'm assuming it'd be kept secret so that the two odious ****ers can scarper with the parachute payments, along with whatever other wedge they could garner from the new owners.

    Only way I could see that is if they'd managed to receive 90% of the parachute payments from a third party (bank etc.) and then sold the club for £1 with no liability to Allamhouse but £80-100m owed to said third party by the club.

    is it either or? Both **** and full of their own self importance.
    Burns can do what the **** he likes talking about traffic lights or whatever during the day. He was **** as a football commentator who thought it,was all about him and swanneh instead of the game.

    Until the tranfer window closes, it impossible to value tne worth of the club as no new owner would know the player values of the squad or the wage bill up to the next window, hence the veto, which apparently scuppered a deal last year.

    My view for what it is worth is that both sides have agreed the sale but they will set a date after the transfer window closes.

    I also expect the sale figure to be a lot lower than some have said

    I so hope you're right, Lincoln, because, to be honest, I'm pig sick of the vitriol, the negativity and the sad, sad waste of some of the club's very finest years. I know, the Allams made some of them happen, but what a bitter sweet pair of pillocks they are ...

    We obviously disagree. Do you think humberside will improve without david should they get the contract back

    I notice on companies house that there are still charges outstanding against the football club (although I have no idea what the two charges are).

    The recent charge by Macquarie bank against future parachute payments and land around county road appears to have had the land bit released from charge so I guess the parachute payment bit is still outstanding. No idea on the second one without digging deeper.

    Edit: appears there is a tab for charges showing some Allamhouse debenture from 2010 outstanding and part of the Macquarie charge outstanding.

    If they are taking the parachute money and running then the sale price will be very low. Satisfy parent company loan and minimise capital gains tax payable on disposal of club shares.

    Unfortunate if debt will remain as it was a good chance to reduce our debt levels significantly.
