    Or someone who doesn't know about the signature function.

    The bloke didn’t just go on national TV and announce he’d bought Hull City, without knowing for certain it was all done and dusted.

    They’re not using the signature function, they’re typing it on every post.

    I reckon dbt has bought the club and will use his sweep stake winnings to buy the striker we need to get promotion.

    I predict he will then sell and buy a pub and brewery.

    It's in the stars.

    From HDM / Baz last night, updated again later during the night .......

    " ... there were one or two unexpected issues which arose from the period of due diligence, they are now in the process of being solved and are expected to be dealt with over the weekend, Hull Live can exclusively reveal.

    Due diligence has now been completed and it’s understood that after one or two false starts, the share purchase agreement will finally be sent to the EFL by Tuesday of next week in what will be one of the final acts of the departing Allam regime.

    Feedback from the EFL has so far been positive about Ilicali’s ownership and so too his proof of funds, and sources involved in the deal indicate full approval for the takeover could be received back from the authority within 48 hours (i.e. 48 hours after it's received this coming week), essentially giving the green light to a new era for City and their supporters.

    The signature function doesn’t work on phones, which is what most view this site on, so most people wouldn’t see it.

    I can't get this to work on my phone, and would be surprised if that's what most view this site on, but there you go.

    If you were to look at this site on a browser on your phone, the signature function would work, but I can't get it to work on Tapatalk (where signatures wouldn't show up).

    Regardless, it seems a colossal waste of time as Chazz said.

    If that is your take. FWIW, I think it is perfectly reasonable and, in my case, nothing to do with “self importance”.

    My backside. You must be trying to win the page sweepstake. I have put my old City Independent name after all my posts.

    Around 70% of website traffic is via a mobile device nowadays and message boards tend to get higher numbers than selling sites. The signatures are automatically removed on mobile devices, as they waste far too much space and would be really irritating.

    Singing your name on a post is hardly the same as a fifty word signature.

    Talk to Chazz, not me. All I said was manually typing your name comes off as someone who doesn't know about the signature function. Dunno what you're trying to argue about.

    After City’s official Instagram account followed Acun and Tan Kesler last night, it appears that this morning they have unfollowed Ehab <laugh><laugh>

    I just saw on Twitter someone noticed that City's Instagram account has stopped following Ehab.
