ITV Football ‏@itvfootball 5h Allam threatens to sell club if he doesn't get his way with name change: http://www.itv.com/sport/football/article/2014-03-18/owner-threatens-to-sell-hull-over-name-change/ … #diddums
All this talk of finances go over my head, I need help with my bank statement FFS. But after his latest statement he comes across as a man clutching at straws, he knows he's beaten but won't lie down. Any respect I had for the man went with that last statement. Please, either accept the ruling and stay quiet or go, you're losing all the respect you had from the fans.
On the contrary, football needs someone like him who won't bow down to the corrupt twattery of the FA and let them insert their cocks into his arse as they do with everyone else, and who isn't afraid to challenge them. It's just a shame it's over such a ****ty cause and nothing worthwhile.
How are they corrupt? I'd agree if you were talking about FIFA but what evidence is there to suggest the FA are corrupt?
They're just ****ers. Other than rejecting the name change, when was the last time everyone nodded their heads in agreement that they'd got something right?
Yes they're corrupt ****ers. For instance, they've decided to charge George Boyd for something he didn't do just to get back at Allam.
???? What's your concern? The financial gurus on here have waxed lyrically about the improbability of a sale. If there were a sale, I would hope the prospective buyer would do there own due diligence on all aspects of the deal and any other opportunities linked to it. Perhaps, just perhaps, stripping away Emperor Allams clothes would make HCC more amenable to the hopes and aspirations of a new owner. It makes me laugh that folk hide from upsetting him with a few home truths. It's no secret, it has been mentioned on this board that he, AA, had openly mentioned this in his discussions. That besides, you would not need the interview skills of Paxman to get to the truth. Simply ask honest and open questions, even use his own ultimation style to get there. Any half decent journalist or legal bod would have no problem making him squirm and provoke more of his hissy-fits. He deserves it, it will not damage anything other than his ego and it just might wind the family neck in.
I realise that you don't agree with our stance, but as pretty much everyone else does, it's not going to change.
Have you not seen Hart has said he didn't intentionally spit and Davies say that Boyd called Hart a "Prick" and spit came out?
Think he was making a point that neither intentionally spit, but images show otherwise. i.e. images can be deceiving.
I think thats a bit of a sweeping statement, but never mind. So let me get this straight, the advice you give to a poster, on here, is different to your CTWD approach. It reminds me of Basil Fawlty and not mentioning the war; but that was a comedy, wasn't it.
Fez, if you are referring to me saying he couldn't sell the club I think I better clarify it. Yes it can sell the club. It could sell it tomorrow if we agreed to write off all Allamhouse's debt and his own and pocketed £1 for the shares. I'm saying that if he intends to get £80 million for it he'll have no buyers and will continue to own and run it. How he does that is up to him within the rules of the FA and the Premier League and the laws of the land. Its his choice. He can continue to pushing for a successful club or he could try and take the FA to court. I'd rather he accepts the decision and puts all this behind him and trys to get Hull City established in the Premier League and self-sufficient. The most important part of the news from the FA was that they didn't believe his business case for change. That has nothing to do with CTWD. He was in charge of presenting that evidence and they wasn't convinced. Not surprising when the change was dreamed up to spite the Council.
No I didn't see him, but I heard him . Even so , the camera never lies . He spit at him intentionally.
His ranting is petty, it's a ****e cause he's fighting for. But honestly I take encouragement from it all, he's the kind of man a club like ours needs at the helm, won't bow to the pressure of the big boys. Imagine if a big club tried to poach one of our younger starlets for peanuts, Christ almighty.
How can you tell that he is spitting and not making a 'pfft' sound to dismiss Hart's accusations of diving or calling him a 'pr'ick as stated by our Captain?
