No new manager

[Building 7]

He didn't say winnings. He said he gets £95 back. Does it really matter?

That's a good bookie , £90 back and a steak.
Was it William Grills ?

My summer by Ehab Shambles

Get booed at Wembley after playoff final, fans are ungrateful idiots, they’ll pay for this.
Add Steve Bruce’s number to blocked callers – don’t need any pesky calls about transfer budgets
Decide to pretend that the club is up for sale for lolz
See how sales of my magnificent new membership scheme are going, oh.. never mind.
Go on holiday, make sure nobody knows where so that Bruce doesn’t find out.
Work on looking smug and arrogant, woah! Nailed it. Adopt it as my default look.
Issue memo to all employees reminding them that calling the club ‘Hull City’ is a sackable offence, Hull Tigers all the way baby.
Add Premier League to blocked callers list, some nonsense about offering concessions to fans, don’t want any annoying kids or smelly old folk at our games.
Pretend that takeover talks with the Americans are progressing well and that a deal is in sight, give those supporters some hope.
Sale contracts are almost ready so demand £40m more, two rainbows and six unicorns, they can’t deliver!
Announce takeover talks have failed, crush fans and ruin their summers. Megalolz. Feel on cloud seven.
Bruce has tracked me down, enough is enough, I’m trying to relax! decide to undermine him and make him leave.
Commission sexy new kit, realise supporters might actually like it so ruin it by putting the rubbish new badge on it.
Bruce leaves! Yay, success.
Finish 3rd in the PL on Football Manager, seems pretty easy, maybe I could be the new boss?
Annoying journalists asking questions about who the new manager will be. Haven’t got a clue, look at bookmakers odds, decide the first five names will be the shortlist.
Play some more Football Manager, finish second and win the FA Cup, seriously, this is a doddle.
Secretary reminds me that there’s less than two weeks to the season and there’s no manager and hardly any adult players.
Go on holiday again.
Gaze at myself in the mirror for a few days, hmmm, so sexy.
Ring up Manchester Hunters and ask them about getting Bill Boney on loan, crikey, he’s on a lot of money.
Speak to some guy called Roberto Martins about the manager’s job, he doesn’t think he can match my football manager achievements with a budget of £5m. Not impressed. Cross name off list
Try and speak to that Gary Coleman chap who managed Whales at the Eurovision. Not allowed! Ridiculous, cross name off.
Gorgon Zola? Never heard of him, cross name off.
Can’t even be bothered with the other two, this is harshing my buzz.
Contact Manchester Devils and ask about getting Marcus Roachford on loan. Why is everyone laughing at me?
Feel depressed, make self feel better by sacking the 1st team coach as he tries to get on the bus to the airport with the squad. Ha ha, muppet.
Tell Honorary President he’s not welcome at the club anymore. Feels good.
Contact LMA and ask them to send me their out of work and desperate list.
Like the look of this Steve Evans guy, only wants £500 a week and luncheon vouchers for Mr Chu’s China Palace.

Assem Allam - Spiteful, though competent.

Ehab Allam - Spiteful, but incompetent.

A fair summary?

Overly kind in my opinion.

 

[Party Hull!]

Probably.

 

[City Man]

Assem Allam - Spiteful, though competent.

Ehab Allam - Spiteful, but incompetent.

Hmmm. I think a little too brief.
Assem Allam= intransigent, ruthless, thin-skinned, manipulative, some degree of economics expertise, vindictive, status-orientated, hot-headed
Ehab Allam= shallow, insecure, lightweight, out of his depth, cowardly, unintelligent, superficial, delusional, disastrous man management style, obsessive about pet projects designed to show his 'expertise', no discernible redeeming qualities

 

[Leon...]

Will their family name ever recover from this?

Whatever his motive, Assem seems determined to have lasting legacy/a name that will live on in the city. However, his charitable works and other work within the community have been (irreversably?) **** stained through just six years at a football club. I haven't spoken to anyone who has a good word to say about them for ages - can't honestly recall the last time.

They are genuinely despised in the city and area.

How does this sit with them?

Not sure what it's like for them where they live, socialise and work but people must be talking about them all the time: laughing, sneering and even hating.

Bear in mind the ever-increasing number of ****s who worship the $ and idolise the rich.
I'm sure the Allams, like most of their ilk, are surrounded by a coterie of fawning sycophants,
"Oh yes Mr Ehab sir, that's a marvellous ticketing scheme, people will love it."
"Yes Mr Ehab sir, it's a just a few idiots who don't appreciate your schemes, they're not in any way representative."

 

[FER ARK]

Look how quickly Sunderland replaced Allardyce with an equally competent manager, why on earth is it dragging out so much for us?

Think it's to do with the compensation package that has to be paid to the WFA to secure the services of Coleman. The allams are wily businessmen, and are quite rightly waiting to see if the cut in the interest rate will effect the exchange rate, as the WFA have asked for X number of sheep and they prefer to pay in camels. Well that's my guess !

No way back. And it's all of their own making.

It don't want him, but I actually liked jol when he was in premier league.

 

[Tony Angelino]

Does anyone think this has gone on to long for them to give it to phelan now?

He obviously wasn't 1st 2nd, 3rd....... Choice
If they give it him now it's because everyone else has turned them down and the Allams won't want us knowing they've failed to bring in a manager. So as long as they employ anyone other than phelan we'll never know he wasn't their preferred choice

 

[Ullofaman]

Not just about the manager but players as well

That ain't the Alps folks - good to see that the lads are trying to smile bravely even with that mighty powerful Premier League tsunami about to descend upon them.

That twitter guy doesn't know a thing

Surely Ehab isn't trying to negotiate less compo :/

 

[Tony Angelino]

Surely Ehab isn't trying to negotiate less compo :/

Ehab wants compo for taking Coleman that's what's stopping it happening

 

[The greengrocer]

I can't believe CC wants it? Wales manager sounds like a cracking gig to me!

 

[Trau Morgus]

Surely Ehab isn't trying to negotiate less compo :/

Of course he is. Chip off the old block.

And when it doesn't come off...

"I will no longer do any business with the Football Association of Wales."

They genuinely dont understand why they are so disliked. Have no love for supporters of the club. Even more dislike towards the former allam supporters who are ditching them now. Totally detest Hull City Council.
