    “Do I have a contingency plan? Yes, if the worse happens and we’re relegated, the plan is to get back into the BPL straightaway. The loss of income won’t make it easy for us but I will not settle for anything less...”

    "But perhaps his biggest contribution to Hull is taking a small town football club to the big league."

    "The fans, of course, have loved every minute of it, but it hasn’t been all rosy for Allam."

    "Then, a minority of the fans objected to his decision to change the name of the club to Hull Tigers."

    “It’s basic marketing, You need to create a strong brandname that is short and memorable."

    "Vincent also faced criticism for changing the colours and logo of Cardiff. Someone who has spent £100mil on the club should be able to do this. It’s only fair, because he took Cardiff to the BPL too. Unfortunately, he has gone back on his earlier decision and bowed to supporters pressure. I will not compromise,” he says."

    And there you have the attitude which is causing so many to not renew summed up

    No, but we have an important match tomorrow and our owner needs another day in the media limelight.

    No, but we all knew Allam the bellend would be up to something this morning.

    Thankfully it looks like our nationals have got bored of his bollocks and the best he could do was some ****ty Malaysian news outlet.

    Does he? Cant remember the last time. He is saying the same thing he has always said, no change. Do we have to have all this faux outrage every single time. Boring as ****.

    I'm not outraged, other people may be. He seems to be saying he's staying, which is new.

    He can't be saying he's staying.

    He said he would be gone within 24 hours and he's a man of his word who never changes his mind and never compromises.

    He never compromises where his money is concerned. He wants it back and he'll stay until he gets it back or his family sells and cuts their losses.

    He's staying this week, going next week. Staying the week after that that and going the week after that.
    Is he one half of the Chuckle Brothers?
    Minority my ass. From his perspective, as long as he is getting biggish crowds he won't be bothered.
    His stubborness shines through. If/when the FA turn him down he will still continue not mentioning City on anything.
    For those of you who still want to buy passes...maybe stop buying provisions and shirts/scarves/programmes.

    He's rewritten his CV for this one, Ruscador didn't go bust, they just changed their name to keep his customers happy. <laugh>

    There are very few dissenting names on this site, just the few very familiar suspects repeating the usual clichés over and again.

    I've never actually written a CV.

    I'm pretty sure if I was worth £500m, I wouldn't feel the need to exaggerate anything. <laugh>
