    Good mate of mine.
    Mentioned it to me in Gemmels one night.
    He was going to do it earlier if it hadn’t been for the sweepstakes…

    Some of the non believers on here are hilarious. My information is that the deal was finalised this evening with the EFL. It will be published in 48hrs. Probably why Acun announced it on Prime TV in Turkey tonight.
    But hey what do I know!

    If the deal is all done by the Everton game with it being conveniently live it will be a full on media circus - the new owner will make sure of that.

    Will the Tigers become as famous in Turkey as Galatasaray, Fenerbache or Besiktas?
    Though I'm sure the MKM will never match the cauldren of their stadia, nor even dare I say it, the passion of their fans.
    Not a betting man, but I'd lay a bet that Iicalli lays on a scheme for a whole load of Turkish fans to attend a City game at some point in the future? ( ' cept they'll have to leave the flares at home!)
    And why not?

    I know Turkey is a bit further away, but it's also a bigger country - but at the height of Sunderland' s Irish ownership there were as many as 3K Irish flew in for games.

    If we get to the PL under this ownership then the Turkish marketplace has massive potential for us.

    Here's the translation of the Acun announcement.

    Like Amble and the seafood spots round the harbour. Good place doing German food as well. Could live in Warkworth, lovely village with a great pub and a cafe doing the best hot chocolate drinks ever,. Amazed at the buses round there. Amble is only small, as is Alnwick, but a bus every half an hour between them going through Warkworth up to 11,40 pm.
    Cant' get a bus from Hull to Brid after about 6pm.

    A lot out there work in Newcastle so there's got to be a commuter service and you don't always have the option of the train like Hull to Brid.

    If you find yourself in Tynemouth at all, Rileys fish shack (on the beach) has been pretty consistent in turning dates into notches for me in recent years. Food is excellent.

    I hope it leads to a massive improvement in City's webpage and all other media outlets.
    How about a Turkish commentator - with fluent English of course (or not for added fun) on the match streams?

    Having any commentary at all would be an improvement to be fair.

    I have purchased four houses in my lifetime and the one thing that has delayed the process on every occasion has been the legal side with solicitors, this is a much bigger deal than buying any house and will have many more spanner’s thrown in the works than a house purchase. The solicitors in my eyes try to warrant there fee I have very much appreciated the itk updates which looks like being correct without disclosing there source and I have appreciated it immensely, I have not been to a home game since the Bruce walked and banned the wife and daughter from buying any city merchandise for me for birthdays etc What I can categorically state is I will finally return to home games when we see the back of these asset stripping sh**s p*** off. I have been following city since mid sixties and have attended matches when work and family commitments have permitted, but my main message is that it is the eve of a new year the eve of new ownership and once more we can all dare to dream once more the time has come for us as the tiger nation to reunite and the divisional wounds to heal and reunite behind our beloved hull city afc and roar them on to the good times we all desire. I rarely post but some dopey sh*ts on here need to give there heads a shake, we all are on here because hull city afc are part of us till the day we die, at the end of the day I wish one and all a happy black and amber new year, and yes I have had one woods navy rum to many

    A bus running at 11.40 between Amble and Alnwick isn't a commuter service. I was looking when I was up there and you could watch Newcastle .United and etc trains and buses from there later than you can from Hull. No chance of watching City at anything but 3pm Saturday kick offs and getting back to Brid.
    Was going to go to Rileys when we were up there last year but never got there. Will be next year. My searching out excellent fish and chip shops always irritates my wife when we are away.<laugh> Enjoyed the Fish Shack at Amble. It was good enough for Jajes Martin so will do for me. And the fish and chips at the Mason's Arms in Warkworth are well worth trying.
    Was watching a repeat of Vera the other night which centred on Tynemouth where it started off with a body found on the Collingwood Monument.

    Any ideas as to who the first addition is going to be? The free agent Turkish midfielder seems the most obvious.
