    Careful... Let's not have facts get in the way of a good Twitter rant.

    Typical Allam spin. Let's see which league they're playing in next season.

    Play-off final doesn't count as a 'trophy' apparently, despite there physically being a trophy.

    Yes, I can help you there. Bret wrote of the steam of his piss, so your toilet theme is quite apt.

    Bobbing turds, as you call them, are a result of poor digestion, or poor nutrient absorption (and some other things, too). They might have a strong odour and a greasy appearance. I think, in my own mind set, that fits father and son Allam quite well. For that matter it fits their supporters even more so; are you such a turd?

    Another spiteful decision by a pair of ****s this City has never seen before, we won today but the Allam out feeling at the game was determined more than ever

    North Ferriby United: FA Trophy winners face uncertain future
    By Jamie Strickland BBC Sport
    North Ferriby United defender Nathan Peat claims the FA Trophy winners are facing voluntary relegation from the Conference North.

    Peat, one of several players to post messages on the subject on social media on Saturday, said the club could be demoted "one, maybe two leagues".

    A club statement released later on Saturday did not address Peat's claim.

    North Ferriby are owned by Eman and Steve Forster, the daughter and son-in-law of Hull City owner Assem Allam.

    The pair have been in charge since late 2013 but announced the club was for sale on 16 April.

    The news of their intention to sell came just over a fortnight after the small East Yorkshire club - who have an average attendance of around 365 - beat Wrexham on penalties to win the FA Trophy in a thrilling encounter at Wembley.

    Ryan Kendall came off the bench to force an equaliser at Wembley before going on to score in extra time

    Among a series of social media postings, former Hull and York City player Peat alleged the owners had pulled "every penny" from the club.

    In response, the club said the owners would "continue with the club until they can transfer to new owners", adding: "Contrary to comments already made there is no money being pulled out of the club, in fact the opposite is the case, more money has to be put in by the Forsters to ensure the club's continued survival."

    The statement said the club's "commerciality and fan base have not matched" recent successes on the pitch, and claimed it was "totally reliant on the continued injection of monies from Steve and Eman Forster".

    Striker Ryan Kendall, who scored twice in the victory over Wrexham, had earlier said on Twitter that the players were now "free to find new clubs".

    "A sad day for North Ferriby today. The best season of our lives just turned into the worst. Will miss everyone at the club," Kendall said.

    He added: "Unfortunately for us as a club businessmen don't see the consequences of their actions, that's the way they work. #ruthless"

    Villagers midfielder Tom Denton added: "Gutted about the news at Ferriby today really enjoyed my football this season."

    Peat also claimed North Ferriby's players have been invited by the Allam family to parade the FA Trophy at the KC Stadium during Hull's game with Liverpool this Tuesday.

    Despite his obvious unhappiness, Peat said: "Just to let everyone know!! Every player will be parading the trophy at half time on Tuesday! To show the biggest achievement in Hull."

    North Ferriby, who are managed by Billy Heath, narrowly missed out on promotion to the Conference National last year.

    They finished 10th in the Conference North this term, their season ending with Saturday's goalless draw at home to Bradford Park Avenue.

    Wish we had a "midfielder" with as many goals as Tom Denton.

    I would presume a non league football club has no chance of being a self sustaining business and will alway need a generous suger daddy ( FC Manchester may be an exception )
    For a wealthy family who claim to be so philanthropic the amount needed to run North Ferriby would be quite small in comparative terms.
    Just maybe not for the first time the Allam family have rushed into buying something without checking to see what they have actually bought.

    what does it matter?

    It's a non league football team watched by a couple of hundred middle class villagers.

    Move on.

    More to this story than is being said at the moment.

    As for Nathan Peat he may well be made to eat his words in the next few days. TWT as always like.

    Mr and Mrs Forster have put North Ferriby up for sale, they don't seem bothered about getting their money back but don't want to fund the team next season so they've sacked them is how I've read it. They'll put money in to pay the bills until the club's sold but after that they're not really bothered what happens to North Ferriby United.

    "Pulling their money out of the club" can mean different things in different contexts. It could mean getting your money back or it could mean withdrawing future financial support.

    What's funny is, they say the fanbase hasn't been what they expected but if allam keeps playing these games then next season ferriby's attendances could see a massive rise with a lot of city season ticket holders not renewing and going there instead.
