    You mean you want it to be more than please and thank you.

    It isn't about selling it. It's only Allam that thinks he has to own the land for any development to take place.

    So thats it?? Thats all you've got ****ing hell.

    So using your dense ****ing arguement you keep telling us Allam is millions and millions in debt but he should use 20 30 40 million more of his own money on building all this in conjunction with the council while not owning it outright??? With TG as the head of it in a semi independent leisure department?? <doh>
    Yes great business proposition. Cant see a single reason why there isnt more local businessmen fighting to jump into that opportunity

    Happy, I see your point and it is worthy, but, by one, very disconnected, but widely recognised act of civility, he could have honoured more. Did you salute the man?

    So to summarise......

    One senior Labour councillor, who did not wish to be named published a letter from Hull City 6 weeks after it had been sent to them stating "Many of us are absolutely furious about this. It's an insult to the office of the Lord Mayor."

    AA not happy with the council again for not promoting Hull City around before the Final and the club sends them the email.

    Arsenal didn't invite their Lord Mayor instead Councillor Fudge's counterpart in Arsenal's home borough of Islington did go to Wembley but as an Arsenal season ticket holder. Councillor Barry Edwards, who is a lifelong Gunners fan, then hosted a civic reception for the club at Islington Town Hall after its 3-2 victory over Hull City. He said: "I was delighted to be able to invite Arsenal in for a cup of tea."

    Hull City Council want AA to invest in the developments around the area as they can't be arsed to go and find another one, knowing AA isn't going to invest they will eventually find someone else to fund this, hopefully before 2017.

    Or, they will continue waiting for AA with no money coming forward, 2017 gets here and the surrounding areas of the stadium not developed, HCC say it was down to AA and the City of Hull looks like they don't know what they're doing (again) in the nations eyes.

    I know it seems quite a simplistic summary but hay ho.

    From experience I can give an opinion that they do. Also, how, in reality, do you think Allam has amassed his fortune? I doubt everyone he did business with thinks the sun shines out of his arse. He treats us all with contempt; work it out . . .

    Yes I did. The HCC can go **** themselves until they apologise, eat some humble pie and start making a LOT more of an effort.

    Unless they do, NO ONE will ever come up and stump up the money he has or would. Wouldn't hurt them to swallow their pride. Oh and get rid of TG while they're at it, give him a lesser role he can't **** up.

    Maybe TG's only fault was that he didn't treat Allam like a god. I can imagine Mr Allam getting annoyed at the slightest thing.

    By the way Happy did you notice that when Allam was talking about his Wembley experience he did not mention the supporters.

    Ironic that a quantity of tickets for both Wembley matches were donated by Mr Allam as prizes in a raffle for council employees.

    no matter which way you look at it, it is still the councils fault for not letting AA get the stadium so he can develop the land around it.
    "but but he wanted it to be given to him" .......... the council wouldn't even ****ing sell it, given the chance.
