We'll never really know what monies they have or haven't had back. The only people who do are the Allams themselves and their closest accountants. Anyway do we really care? I don't, it's got past that point, I just want them gone.
I'm not suggesting undesirables should be removed from the area by just any Tom, Dick or Harry with a pitchfork - no, I think the police should be doing that. They don't like it up 'em!
I'm expecting I know the answer.... but the ;last parachute payment is not until January, so unless this is 'ring-fenced' there is not chance of them leaving before Christmas... at the last. minute they will likely throw in a caveat of wanting a 50% share of any future sell on fees of Maguire or even Robertson, thats if it isn't to be written into any sale agreement...
They've spent over half a billion pounds and left us with less assets than Bartlett did. The TV money reduced their debt by about £30 million the rest went on supporting Bruce. If you think I believe them not getting all their money back compensates in any way for their incompetence, the eviction of loyal supporters from the East Stand, the eviction of thousands from the Airco Arena, the application to change our name, the closure of the Upper West, the withdrawal of concessions, installing a gate to stop access to West Park, the childish refusal to call us Hull City AFC, not using our proper nickname, the pathetic badge or leaving us with our current team then you are an idiot.
That feeling when you pick up your phone yet again to check on here and elsewhere for the news that they've finally ****ed off. #oneofthesedays
I have no problem meeting in a pub but I don't drink alcohol, only tonic or if I'm lucky a cup of tea I have no problem with you drinking beer whilst I drink my tonic.
Oh really !! Are you having a bad day . What about the vast increase in the SMC running costs?? It always surprises me how gullible some people are !!
Someone clever should set up an alert on your phone for the day it happens, like a score flash thing. I can imagine being in meeting and it going off.... .....
I am sure overall they will look upon the project as a financial success and that will appeal to their ruthless businessmen mentality. However at what cost to their reputation has that been gained. At the time of thier takeover very few people in the local area had heard of them. Now we are all ready to have celebration marches to mark them leaving. The sad thing is if it was not for their arrogance and beligerence it could have been so different.
They craved the adulation, or crave it. The debacle with the Queen put everything into perspective and still, thankfully at this point, the old git hasn't received his award he, I am sure, desperately wanted.
