Personally I don't really use it for gossip, so I'm not the person to ask, @HullCityLive and @amber_Nectar are the best City accounts to follow.
Okay. Not a problem....So when can we expect to see some rich Yank geezer in a sharp suit walking around the stadium waving a City scarf around his crust...and the East stand belting out "America, the Beautiful"..
Transfer Centre Live has an extraordinary strike rate, so they're very good to follow, while as OLM said, HullCityLive and others of that ilk - Amber Nectar, etc. - are good to follow.
Because the Allams have hiked the asking price, and the published TV money is approx. 12% less as a result of the Brexit vote fallout.
In relative terms it is 12% less, but as OLM has suggested, the deal was agreed after the FX rate issues.
The TV money hasn't changed, it was £96m before the vote and it's £96m now. The rate hasn't dropped by 12% either, the headline $1.50 exchange rate that people kept referring to only went that high for a few hours and you couldn't actually do a trade at that price, the $ rate had been at about $1.44 for months, realistically it's about 8% down and rising.
Rick on @HullCityLive lists every transfer story involving us, but other than that they just report news, give opinions and match reports etc.
As far as transfer 'rumours' Buckingham and Burnsy are the best to follow as they don't post anything unless it's concrete. Believe it was Burnsy who broke the story that we were after Maloney, for instance, and one of them also broke the news about the Odubajo + Gray bid, etc.
Burnsy said we were more likely to drop another division rather than be promoted back the the prem last year!
OLM did say : Quote: "I think this is probably exactly what Assem did, he calculated the exchange range benefit and came up with something to justify adding it on." Has a deal been agreed after that, and if so, has Assem hiked the price even more(a second time) to cause the Americans to walk away ?
Are people really defending / condoning the Allams walking away from a deal to sell the club because the exchange rate has changed? They are petty, vindictive, childish ****s. The Allams that is not posters on here, we're all nice.
