    Figured this was the most relevant thread, we've recorded the first ep for the new season of The Tigers Down Under. Relatively positive, considering everything!

    I dont understand the logic of waiting until after the transfer window shuts to sell the club? Isn't it best to sell as soon as possible before the transfer window shuts so that the new owners can buy players?
    Sorry if all this has been said before. It just seems so obvious.
    Is there some kind of embargo on player transfers before new owners are ratified? If that was the case I would have thought the deal would have been sorted out as soon as we got promoted.

    Didn't know Wolves were big in China - although not as big as Tigers obviously!

    I glanced at a headline and thought it said:

    'Wolves bought by Colin Montgomerie for £45m"

    I thought for a bloke who never won a major he's done okay...

    the only buyers have walked because the Allams behaved like used car salesmen on a sleazy lot - there's no-one else interested - they've ****ed up - they're pretending it's business as usual until September when they hope someone else might be interested or they've invented another porkie about delaying things even further - with all the injuries and missing the start of the season, I reckon the useless ****s have cost themselves £50 million just to get an extra £6 mill - business genius that we can only aspire too - the likes of me and you would have sold and got the £100 mill which is why were not successful businessmen and they are <laugh>

    In all honesty he finished top of the European order of merit for about a decade. So I reckon he probably could just about buy them.

    And now the Swansea takeover has been completed. Scary what you can do when you put your mind to it and don't act like a set of ****s.

    You'd have had the promise of 100 mill, which isn't quite the same thing at all.

    Well if that's the case perhaps someone should point him over here to a club that is very close to our hearts...And I'm not talking 3 iron...
    Not sure if £45m would buy City, but an enquiry wouldn't go amiss.

    Swansea have just been bought by two Americans. How have they managed that?

    I may have missed it...there's so much speculation on here (on quite a few related threads too), but has there been any formal statement from either the Grieve led consortium or the present owners of Hull City that this deal is actually dead ?
