    This is where we find out in an amazing twist that OLM is actually Assem and has been deceiving us all this time...

    And Junior is Ehab??

    It all makes sense now!

    I just wanted to congratulate you for your use of the word "Fuzz" in respect of the French police in the other thread. Despite some cockwombles on there, it didn't seem appropriate to mention it made me laugh.

    By & Large, Even If It's just shadowy journalism. It Is rather a pretty large statement to be just bandying about for the sake of It. Corporation News , We all know does'nt care About It's accuracy , As It's a case of well where are the public going to get It from, If It's not Us. And In the BBC world, reporting from some place up North way, near the coast, does'nt really rattle their cages to being super accurate. Don't believe everything You read, Is an adage to be Implied in their statement. Cannon Fodder.

    The fact that the Allam's have taken us so close to a takeover will only intensify this backlash! I hope OLM is wrong and whatever spanner he is aware of can be rectified!

    Drop in attendance, not taking full allocation to Wembley, poor renewal in season passes, red card protest, city til I die - we have been protesting but I imagine it will be stepped up if this falls through.

    That he had heard the deal with Peter Grieve had stalled as the Allams want the whole £100million up,front. They had been offered tens of millions with further payments which would have taken it over the figure asked. He didn't say all bids were off so the other ones may still be in contention, or other one, the Chinese one.

    Thanks Castro for both replies. I'm not surprised Assem Allam wants the £100 million upfront, he's seems like someone who doesn't like credit.

    I'm not convinced there was ever actually a firm bid from the Chinese.

    Surely this is just part of the negotiation

    Allam's - we want 100% upfront
    Grieve - I'll give you 20%

    Eventually meet somewhere in the middle. if it falls through they'll be lucky to get an offer like this ever again. If we are relegated be prepared to be stuck with them!

    If it's not true that there are contracts being drawn up, then it's not true the club is being sold. If that's the case, just officially announce it FFS.

    One thing that has certainly changed at #hcafc this week is that Assem Allam has now taken the lead on takeover talks.

    This initially looked like a very good thing, now, not so much.

    That said, I'm now pretty sure Assem does want to sell the club.

    Why not so much a good thing now if Assem wants to sell the club?
