    What do you want them to do?
    Sell up and **** off as per the red card protests or hang on until the right buyer comes along, if they ever come along?

    If you expect that it is even possible to sell tomorrow to someone who has oodles of cash, unblemished and straightforward business dealings and the best interests of supporters as their primary motivation then you will ultimately be dissatisfied whoever they sell to.

    To summarise.

    There seems to be a snag with the deal.
    We do not know what the snag is. We do not know how serious the snag is.
    Our best source of info seems to be a local radio guy, and someone who met Assam Allams at a funeral.
    I think I'll check back in in a couple of days time when we have something more concrete.
    Good bye.

    Of course that's all he and his business legal team/advisors needed to do. Which they most likely did do. And probably even more. The question is the interpretation of and implementation of the PL/FA rules, which may well be more stringent than the Allams' team are possibly aware of. Those rules may even be unclear in their definition.

    The Germans have the best idea, all clubs have to have majority shares owned by the fans

    Deutschland? I am sure there are, such as it being illegal to wash your car outside your house. Or how about neighbours that growl at you for hanging out washing on a Sunday? I do love the requirement to carry a permit for just about everything people do, I mean we all need a fuhrerschein to drive, but a fischereischein to dangle a hook in the sea? But this certainly beats everything in Britain ...

    So, which Super Power will we turn to next?

    We've tried asset stripping Yanks, then money laundering Chinks, how about the Ruskies?

    There's got to be a good old Oligarch type gangster out there with a few bob to spend.

    Just think ..... Hull City Tigerski ..... it's got a ring to it you know.

    Not sure whats going on behind the scenes so won't speculate. Personally more than fed up with the whole shabang to be honest and have been for some time now. Allowing a club to change hands once a season gets underway is just not right in my book so it looks like more s*hit is heading our way as the football world scratches its head wondering just what the **** is going on in Hull.
