HCST - Away Supporters’ Initiative Fund: Where’s the money gone?

Putting bits from different threads together, were there only 2 Tiger Travel coaches? and did 1400 / 1500 City fans turn up?

 

Ok, I am wrong, you know what OLM meant, even though he is going to explain tomorrow.

 

Yes, you are wrong. I didn't say I knew what OLM meant, but he has offered some clarity. Try reading what I posted instead of what you think I posted.

 

Pathetic display of anti-Allam ****e from sections of the away support today. Today was not the day for it. Even the normally impeccably neutral Steve Bruce voiced his disdain. Big men holding up little pieces of paper, hoping they get to see themselves on Match Of The Day. It just makes me like the Allam's even more.

 

It makes you like the Allams when people protest against him?

So being contrary is more important to your stance than looking at the things he's actually done. Well done you.

I know there's only four or five of you, but it's ****ing embarrassing seeing that there are people like you still posting this crap and calling yourselves City fans.

 

Ban him PLT.

 

I don't need a hug from the Allam's. I just want a chairman who supports the manager and gives him money to spend. We are never going to be Hull Tigers so stop crying about it.

 

I agree we'll never be Hull Tigers so it's a shame our club is so rabidly obsessed with the pointless quest to try and make it happen. The fans are being constantly punished by the owners for not wanting to be Hull Tigers and the focus at the club is entirely on that.

Let's try and stay on topic, how do you feel about the ASI fund? Presumably you don't think fans deserve to benefit from the subsidies the PL hands down for them?

 

You mean to say they weren't drowned out by the vociferous pro Allam faction? No doubt they will be making the KC a cauldron on Tuesday LOL?

 

Before you go any further you need to get your facts right, as this isn't how it was structured.

 

There isn't an ASI fund. No subsidies have been handed down.

 

Changed from casting dispersions about a good bloke on here to pure and simple making **** up.

You really are a disgrace.

 

Not at City perhaps. Whether you call it a separate fund or not doesn't affect anything being discussed; it's part of the money handed down by the PL and it's specifically set aside to subsidise away support.

 

What are you even on about? Go on, make your point.

 

It wasn't a fund. Neither was £200,000 given to City as some people seem to think. Some people make out like City were handed £200,000 and it has been withheld or spent on something else or gone in Allam's back pocket. Nothing was set aside as such. The club's agreed to a suggestion they used £200,000 a season for 3 seasons to encourage away support. No one said that it had to be spent subsidising their own fans. Of course the PL didn't allow for a chairman like ours.
It will be interesting to see if the PL asks the clubs to count for what they have spent and on what. And what they will do if the money hasn't been spent.

 

Well, he obviously doesn't know what dispersions are. There again, he isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer.

 

Far more than £200k was given to City, as we all know. Some of that is set aside as ASI money. I'd argue it's a fund but that's really semantics.

 

Far more was given to everyone. It may be semantics but these things matter.

 

Yes and most teams used it on away support.

 

No one is denying that.
