Don't know, but let's be clear that it is obvious that the only reason Assem Allam put the £40 million (or whatever that initial investment was) into Hul City, was because he thought he would get the stadium etc for nothing. The bloke has only ever been out for himself and his family.
The charity donations he has made in the city are the very minimum someone such as himself, that has taken so much labour etc out of the local economy for personal profit, has to give.

The Club is delighted to announce that the Tigers Sport & Education Trust will be our Official Charity Partner for the 2015/16 season.
The Trust, formerly known as Football in the Community, is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year and continues to grow year-on-year.
With the aim of making a difference in the local community by involving people in sport and promoting the values linked to sporting success, the Trust provide activities, support and education to people of all ages and in 2015 aims to engage more than 18,000 locals in a range of programmes.
Through their projects, The Tigers Sport & Education Trust aim to achieve positive outcomes in health & wellbeing, education & employability and reductions in crime & anti-social behaviour with participants able to gain qualifications in several different areas.
And now with the help of the Football Club, they will receive further support and benefit from enhanced publicity through a range of activities, with defender Alex Bruce set to be named as the Trust’s ambassador.
Speaking about the role, Bruce said: “I’m delighted to become the new ambassador for the Tigers Sport & Education Trust. Having been at this football club for three years now, I have seen first-hand the great work that the Trust does in the local community and understand how we as players can play an influential role in helping to reach those that the Trust aims to engage with.
“I am now looking forward to working even more closely with John Davies and his dedicated team of staff in the months to come.”
The Tigers’ Marketing Manager, James Mooney, added: “We are delighted to be offering further support to John Davies and the team at the Tigers Trust during their 25-year anniversary. The Trust has done incredible work across the region and we hope with a little more help from the Club this can grow bigger and better than ever before.”
Trust Manager John Davies is delighted that the Club has chosen them as their Official Charity Partner, saying: “We really appreciate the opportunity given to us by the Club. It shows significant support and recognition to us as a charity and for the work that we do within the local community.”
Looking forward to working with the football club, the Trust’s Partnership Development Officer Gemma Garnett added: “We are excited about the upcoming season as the Club’s Official Charity Partner of the Year.
“The football club is a focal point for a large part of the local community and one that the Club strives to reach out to. It is the role of the Tigers Trust to work in partnership with the Club to reach out to areas of need, through supported programmes that help improve health & wellbeing, anti-social behaviour, education and employment for local people.”
The Club’s partnership with the Tigers Trust marks the end of our year-long partnership with the Teenage Cancer Trust, with Mr Mooney adding: “Our partnership with the Teenage Cancer Trust at Castle Hill has been very successful, we will have a final figure to share with the world in the coming weeks, but what we can say is that it is well into six figures.
“The support shown by our fans has been remarkable and it will help a wonderful organisation continue to keep doing vital work.”

Profit, comes from the exploitation of labour. The people he employed were paid less than they were worth - if you don't earn more than your job, overall, your job goes. We all know that. Then there is the exploitation of raw materials, which are externalities the true cost of which is never put on a businesses balance sheet. Why isn't Sheik Mansoor spening all the money he has earned from oil on adapting to sea level rises caused by climate change? Certainly he should be paying. People in our city will pay the price even this century. By the middle of this century in fact.
This is before any specific things to do with local businesses others might want to chime in with.
We're not Hull Tigers, but we are The Tigers. It's been used on City stuff for years. Getting upset at that is throwing the baby out with the bath water.
Changing the score board is a clear provocation to his most loyal customers. As I said, I saw West Stand empty - they were the only people interested in having Tigers on the score board. Just because we disagree on the city of culture bid etc plan for the city doesn't mean we have to automatically assume positions in opposition.
