    I really want him to stay.
    Unfortunately I think you are right.

    He really doesn't sound happy with it and that's not very Nigel.

    The Allams are demonstrating, and yet again confirming, they are sound business people but by their own admission know bugger all about football!

    This has been the issue from day one. Owners who have no emotional attachment to Hull City as we, the supporters, do (Allam has stated he never watched Hull City in all his years living in Hull & has no interest in football). They are motivated solely by making money & treat the supporters exactly the same as a punter looking to buy a diesel engine for their boat (ie this is the price, take it or leave it). They have no understanding of how it feels to be a fan & are clueless on how to grow a football club by treating the fans with respect. Look at the number of empty seats for every home game, but these 2 idiots just don't get it & never will. Whilst the club still owes them money via the loan they will never leave (easy money, few million every year in interest for doing no work). They have plundered the Premier League money, parachute payments & sold off any players of value & are now left holding a baby they have no interest in & no intention of investing a single penny in. Morally they are on par with Hinchcliffe & Buchanan (ie asset strippers)

    NO not having that (last sentence). Morally they are WAY below Hinchcliffe & Buchanan, and any other owner weve had (at least during my time, which is 50 odd years). No question.

    Speaking about contracts, Campbell has posted on Instagram a picture of his locker with the door (which had his name on) broken and the captain “it’s only been broken 5 months.”

    Clearly, the owners are even saving money there. Why pay to fix the door if you’re letting the player go?

    It’s on his story. I’ve taken a screenshot.

    His comments certainly are not in the usual Nigel way, I also feel he is looking elsewhere and if something comes up he will be off. Scunny still a possibility, would you rather work for Allam or Swann?

    I've been saying for a while now that even Adkins with all his positivity has a point were he says "enough is enough", I have no doubt that other chairman's in the championship/EFL have noticed what he has achieved with one hand tied behind his back at city, I for one don't think that he'll be short of offers from clubs come June, which is a shame as the guy has won me over after i was one of his major doubters, anyway just another day at City, well done Ehab you really have the art of pissing people off down to a fine art.

    Not at all sure about that I'm afraid. if they were sound business people they wouldn't have made various decisions, on concessions etc, that have driven the crowds down to a historic low for the KC. They're greedy, manipulative, non-inclusive, narrow and short minded business people who are trying to rescue a complete **** up and don't really know how to do it in the football world. You can't run all businesses exactly the same and football 'aint marine generators. Also if they were excellent marine generator businessmen how do explain their latest results, and have you seen they're website? Nah they're ****s, end of, and only half way competent marine generator business people at best.

    I think he'll stay. Don't know why but maybe just cos so fed up of the masochistic 'save yourself and leave us' mentality among some fans. Nice to hear the travelling support today making it clear they want him to stay.

    Probably a load of bollocks, but I just post it for what it is worth.
