    The Healeys did **** all for us when we were on the rocks, nor did the Allams at the time, Adam Pearson deserves massive credit for lifting us from the brink he was shrewd enough to see the potential city had with the move to the KC. I opposed the name change but I suspect the reason AA hasn't made a statement is that it would trigger a revival in the debate and given the incendiary nature of the stuff he came out with last year it's probably best he stayed schtum

    I really hope AA has sold up. cos I wonder how many ULTRAS will go back to TWS when we start bumping along the bottom of division 4 again.

    Sponsors can do that without fans - shirt ads/ground surround ads/etc.

    It's a strong word but it's justified in Allam's case as lying is exactly what he has done.

    I agree those companies don't care, but they have to at least pretend to. If they spoke to their customers the way Allam has done they'd lose a lot of customers.

    In theory if the club was worth 50 million before the signings and with the squad a 50 - 50 chance of relegation the club value could be lets say 80 million. Now we have added 20 million worth of assets the club is worth 70 million but now the chance of relegation is much less say 70 - 30 this makes the club value much more could be 110 or 120 million.
    This is speculation and a risky gamble, the prize is the premier league payments of ?? 60 or 70 million a year.
    Now before a game has even been played with the new players Assam Allam can mitigate his risk and sell now as the club value is more than what he invested. Its all about the potential income rather then the value of the assets.
    Hope that makes sense.
    SuitedandBooted put it simplest, you do your house up before selling it.

    EXACTLY so spectators aren't really needed!
    Some of you think that the Allams owe you.

    oh there he goes, using his nursing homes favourite insult.

    I had to go watch our first ever European night at the KC, but NO I don't make a habit of it for my own personal reasons.

    Come on then let's see you back some of that crap up.

    Can you list me some owners who you think don't get on with their managers?
    What was the reason Barmby got sacked if it wasn't for his comments in an interview with Burnsy where he didn't deny Burnsy's suggestion that money wasn't made available for him in the January transfer window and why did the club state that this was the reason?
    What other professions can you think of where those actions would get you sacked?
    Which things have I blown out of proportion? I'm sure you're not just posting angry sounding, vague stock phrases in response to a clear point being made, so go on, was it the direct quote about him telling us to leave the club alone? Please list the things I've blown out of proportion.

    I have no idea who might or might not buy the club, but that's none of my concern as I don't think Allam will be going anywhere. My point was about why it shouldn't be seen as taboo to dislike Allam or want him out. However, I can only think of a handful of owners as bad as Allam in the last few years, so I really don't think there's a risk that anyone coming in would be worse.

    You say there are errors but can't be bothered to point them out. I don't think there are any errors. I think you just like arguing but don't like doing it properly. Feel free to let me know what those errors are but if not, I can only ignore you on that one.

    You seem to be suggesting that City Till We Die lied in press releases. Can you give an example? Just one will do. The middle bit doesn't make sense but why are CTWD not clean? Or me personally for that matter. Two strange accusations there.

    I don't agree that he should stay quiet, if he wanted to tell us anything he could quite easily do that without offending anyone, if that was his intention.

    Can I ask if there is a reason (I apologise in advance if there is) why we have dropped mong from 'Clown shoe mong'?

    Because '****ing clown shoe' is better and 'mongs' is offensive to mongs.

    what exactly is a clown shoe??
    I mean what relevance does it have to anything? would it sound so it be so insulting if I referred to anyone as a pink flipflop?.
    We started out with 'window licker' then onto 'clown shoe mong' and finally just to 'clown shoe', I wonder what the sad boys in the playground will come up with next?

    That's a daft thing to post. Why would they? Do you have to attempt to buy something to have a view on or an interest in it?
