'The Allams think they are untouchable, and can just "stick two fingers" up to the people of Hull. That no-one will really dare challenge them.' This was a HDM headline. I suspect what they are getting away with, they are probably right.
People that take this type of attitude generally get their comeuppance, what goes around comes around as my mother used to say. They have burnt a lot of bridges, and one day they will need that bridge and won't be able to get back.
''Tis true. I imagine ehabs long term plan is when the old man pegs it. Sell Allam marine and the club and bugger off somewhere with all the dosh.
Yup, that's been my thought recently too. When the old man goes, I suspect we'll see the nasty side of Ehab even more and god knows where that will leave us just as he ****s off.
I hope you are right John. What I don't understand is they have undone all the other good work they have done in the City. Certainly amongst us City fans.
That is what I can't understand, what they have done was easily preventable, they could have walked away heroes, but they chose to walk away ****s.
I've seen that happen on more than one occasion, the best one was an Northern Irish trawler owner I knew well had a very good business in Whitehaven, he passed suddenly and left his 2 boys, who were in their early twenties £30M, they blew in within 18 months. Slow horses and fast women mainly. P.S. He made his money in the beginning, by paying his skippers then taking them out drinking, got them blathered and then would take from their pocket part of what he had paid them. They couldn't remember a thing the next days, just thought they had a really good session.
I actually agree, but do find it inconceivable that 'no one dare challenge them'. Looking back, they have been very clever in the way they have pissed off different people at different times which I guess is classic 'divide and conquer' tactics. Many of those who would be most vociferous in their 'challenge' have long gone. A master stroke getting rid of half the E1/E2 hooligans early in the campaign.
Not just us City fans tho. One by one they are alienating, humiliating, pissing off more and more people. Taking the sign down was a huge own goal. Pretty much everything else theyve done they could argue some (misguided, warped) business logic for it. This was different. There was no business logic. Just pure infantile spite, sticking 2 fingers up at the council and at all Hull taxpayers. I cant see people sitting back and doing nothing anymore. Surely the council and good people of Hull have more about them to allow them to take the piss llike this. They will get their comeuppance. Not sure how, but it will come. Only a sign, but a big mistake. Surely?
The thing is people where still supporting them through most of this crap up until recently. If you couldn' see it after name change and E1/2 move shenanigans you where either blinded by them or deliberately belligerent.
I' d say a 100% boycotting of the next game but I'm sure they' get some perverse kick out of it. All those good years of trying to get kids interested in City is totally crumbling away. They'l all end up being plastic TV supporters of glory clubs. I think 13 year ol kids have less childish petulance that these 2 embarrassments of human beings
