I did give the guy some benefit until a week ago when the Airco Arena stuff kicked off. It was confirmed last night. One major thing which made me think the guy is a totally stubborn is he said they couldn't develop the void space under the KC as it was not theirs and who would improve something they don't own. (We have heard all that before). Then in the next part of the interview he proclaims they are spending 250k improving the airco arena. Not not to knock his business acumen but someone should tell him he doesn't own that either....
I would imagine some of the office/void space under the KC could be developed for similar amounts of money. Even less. If you want a bar/restaurant to become a tenant all you need is a shell space and a reasonable tenancy agreement.
Also throughout the interview he referred to us being from East Yorkshire/ and mentioned ERYC and the region. The only time he mentioned Hull is when he said it was their problem to find the tenants of the arena a new home.
One thing I would think was possible is that there could be an empty industrial unit that could be converted in the city into a multi sports venue.
Suffice to say it confirms I wont be renewing my pass after 15 years of being a pass holder. I love the club but he is pulling it apart under the veil of progress. He is dividing the city and creating a them and us scenario. I wont be at Chelsea because the atmosphere won't be a good one, no matter the result.
