    Turkey's a big country, less than 20% of the population live in Istanbul.

    My Blackburn supporting mates always talk highly of his time there, had a big influence and generally regarded as one of their best over recent years

    He played for them when they reached the semis of Euro 2008. One parent is Turkish.

    Regardless, I don't think footballers are deciding on their club solely on the weather, but also on the wage, and at this stage I don't think we're building the fabled Turkish XI.

    Huge country. Van is a nice city with one of the largest fresh water lakes in the whole of Asia.
    Only about 100 miles from Iran border.

    I heard him on about these 8. Who are they?

    https://www.wearehullcity.co.uk/teams/first-team/

    Maybe this goes part way to explaining our problems - they don't know who / what they've got??

    Wilks
    Eaves
    KLP
    Longman
    Smith T
    Magennis

    That's 6. Maybe add Williams to make it 7, although the club appear to think he's a midfielder. Or does he think Scott is still available for selection?

    All academic anyway I guess. He's clueless and we know that.

    Would think Williams and Moncur are the other two.

    Maybe he thinks Elder as he has probably scored more than some of them.

    I'm assuming the desire for Turkish personnel is to increase awareness and support for HCAFC within Turkey itself - so Ilicali and backers can make money there as well as here. A bit like Grosicki getting the Hull Polish community through the turnstiles at the KCOM.

    Obvious I’d of thought as the Turks seem quite easily excited. Maybe we can encourage Turkish football atmosphere instead of killing it like Ehab has

    Afternoon,

    Does anyone have any information on the US consortium that are also supposedly interested in purchasing the club?

    Suggestions on the HDM comments section that they are the front runners (yes, I know this is not a lot to go on).

    Sounds like the dirty tricks play-book in action to up the price. Nothing would surprise me. Wouldn't surprise me if it fell through at the final hurdle.

    Heads of terms are agreed/signed and due diligence is has/is taking place. The price can't just change now. Americans where sniffing strongly in summer but are long gone.

    Given both parties have confirmed due diligence is being carried out, that should suggest a fee has already been agreed. If any deposit has been paid, that should also secure a period of exclusivity.
