    You really think he's going to spend £100 million building a stadium at Melton?

    Especially after letting us know that he isn't going to spend another penny.

    Remember, he doesn't go back on his word...

    In Bartlett's case the debt was exterior. It was held by banks/lenders that had the power (and indeed had to follow lender's protocol to protect other investments) to put the club into admin if it wasn't repaid.

    In Allams case, he has lent the club his own money (via Allam Marine). If default is likely, he can't threaten himself with administration. That would be madness.
    Oh, hang on.....

    If anything, the club is more secure (despite it owing 3x the Bartlett debt) because of who it is owed to.

    I think it's finally dawned on AA that he's not going to get his investment repaid in full and that's why he's a tad grumpy.

    I suspect that CTWD's statements have too many big words in them for you and so far you've understood none of them, after all, you are a complete ****ing cretin.

    That's because you're a cretin.

    Are Fulham worth £200m now? I suspect their demise has seriously undermined the price of premier league clubs.

    Hull City owns next to no assets and the players are worth, in accounting value, a fraction of their resale value. I think Allam would snap someone's hand off if they offered £50m, because that's £30m North of the assets you actually are buying. It needs a buyer willing to take a risk the club doesn't get relegated. That's a special kind of optimist!

    So far Vincent Tan has invested 170+million into Cardiff City. Who anyone care to put a value on Cardiff City as a going concern.

    Once again?

    Not sure how you work that out. I'm merely pointing out how ridiculous it is that some posters claim to be mortally offended by how the club is run yet still put money in Allams pocket.

    Hundreds have already walked away, including 2 posters from here, men of principle you see. When that time comes, and it isn't that far off for me, I'll join them. If you think that's crap it says more about you than anything.

    When something you enjoy stops being enjoyable and you actually start to hate it then it's time to give it a rest for a while.

    IMO.

    You've mis read that one pal.

    I'm thinking of not going because we haven't moved yet. What the **** is he playing at?

    Too right I'll be going if we move to Melton, it should keep some of the riff raff who can't afford to travel that far west away as well.

    Absolutely. I can walk to the KC from mine but I'd much prefer driving out West if it keeps more of the oiks out.

    It'll be good to start drinking and driving again

    I've got no problem with the people who've jacked it in for the time being, I can understand their stance entirely. Personally I don't think I'm giving any money to Allam by having a season pass. For all his many faults I don't think he's taking loads of money out of the club for himself. If people like me stopped going, I hardly think his salary would be the first cutback to be made. My point was just that whenever you post on the topic lately it seems to be to criticise fans who are anti-name change, while you maintain that you're anti name change yourself.

    Get in John Ex Aberdeen now E.R. and don't let anyone tell you otherwise mate. And let's not forget HCAFC is paying interest on any loans

    I'll pick you up in the Benzo and we could do cocktails in Duke prior to kick off.

    No HU1 scum allowed mind.
