    these on here? PLT and his ilk would have you believe that anything is better than AA.
    Be careful what you wish for.

    We've always said we want the club to go to a good home and that hasn't changed. We still want what is best for us," Mr Allam told the Mail. I think that's what he means.

    I bet they wished you'd parked in the car park outside.

    Or what if the new Azerbaijani (or whatever) owners come in and decide Ehaw is an excellent CEO who has trimmed overheads to the bone and has been associated with 2 promotions, a Cup Final etc

    People assume new owners will be wise and benevolent.
    History, especially ours, usually shows the opposite.

    BBC copying now ...

    Hull City: Talks under way about takeover of Championship clu

    Hull City play their home matches at the KCom Stadium
    Talks have begun about a possible takeover of Championship side Hull City, reports BBC Radio Humberside.

    The club have been up for sale since 2014, after the Football Association turned down owner Assem Allam's request to a change of name to Hull Tigers.

    As offer is now understood to have been made and talks held over the weekend have been described as "constructive".

    Hull face Derby in the second leg of their play-off semi-final on Tuesday, having won the first game 3-0.

    In May 2015, Egyptian Allam told BBC Look North he hadrejected offers for the club as he wishes to ensure it goes to a "good home".

    Allam took charge of the Tigers in December 2010 and they were subsequently promoted back to the Premier League under manager Steve Bruce, before relegation last May.

    In Sydney we are only 10 hours ahead for about 2 weeks in the year. The rest of the year we are either 9 hours or 11 hours ahead of the UK. In NSW clocks go back an hour in early April and forward an hour in early October.

    So currently we are 9 hours ahead until October.

    He's been a guest of the club at the last couple of games, he was interviewed in the members bar, with Brian Horton, ahead of the Rotherham game.
