Glad to see the trampoline club have managed to get over the setback and have bounced back.
An open letter from Ehab...

They're probably doing somersaults at not having to deal with the Allams anymore.
Toilet attendant opens a cubicle. **** on the floor all over the walls,
What the???
Sorry mate its coz of me salts
Epsom salts don't cause this
No, not Epsom salts, my somersaults
Yes, of course they do.
But the point is, the Allams are NOT returning the Arena to public use because they wish to put right a despicable wrong they previously did. They are only doing it because their outrageous hijacking of the Arena has served it's purpose, is no longer needed, and doesn't really serve the ongoing need.
Some will interpret it as a great act the Allams are doing. It isn't. They are only doing it for themselves i.e. the Allams doing "what is (morally) right for me". Nothing more.
-> They haven't built the bubble yet. Planning permission was only granted recently. So don't know where you get your info from ?
Correct.
Only from the horse's mouth!
I guess when running a trampoline club, business will always be up and down. Great to hear they have been back on the up.
It was in the public domain at the time. Letters between the council and Ehab which were released online. From what I recall the council wanted to bend over backwards to get a bubble pitch built, and Ehab said he'd only go down that route if the council agreed to give him some sort of rate relief which they weren't even legally allowed to give.
They couldn't give it because it would have been illegal. All documented pretty well here:

Incredibly telling that you believe Ehab was the good guy in this.
Fair enough, but you are forgetting the club had a time scale to conform with when the adjudicators who grant these academy status things say they are coming, they come and you don't get the opportunity to chose when they come, they tell you.
I just know there were two sides to the airco arena argument at the time. I listened to both sides and made my own judgement. Perhaps you should try it ?
It was a ****s trick then and still is now. By giving back what they shouldn't have taken does not make it all right. There were other options available to them and they didn't have to take the Arena.
The time scale thing, we had been years with the academy at the level it was there was no rush to improve things to gain level 2 apart from the fact that the inspectors were coming because they had been invited by the club.

The Allams did nothing illegal, however it was morally wrong.
One example of why the community isn't fully supporting them when it comes to attending matches. Their actions regarding many problematic issues that have arisen during their tenure, due entirely to themselves,has come back and bitten them in the backsides big time!
Credit to them for investing and creating a stronger development squad over recent years, the cost to them however is significantly more than the initial capital costs with reduced gate revenues now beginning to bite hard.
Well, you said:
"When people such as the Allams or other modern football club owners behave in the way that the you describe, their 'customers' decide to do take their custom elsewhere."
Clearly they don't when the team is doing well like MUFC or LFC..
It generally helps to make a judgement if it's based on the correct information to start with.
Statement from the Premier League - “It is up to clubs themselves to request a date on which the independent audit takes place, and is not dictated by the Premier League.”
The bubble pitch at Bishop Burton was always the best solution, the whole sorry mess is detailed here...

A lot of people only think in straight lines and see things in black and white whilst not reading what was originally actually written and replied to.
Don’t forget Newcastle. They boycotted the game on Saturday in protest about the detested Mike Ashley. This resulted in the crowd plummeting to a paltry 48,000. That will show him.
They were protesting when we won there in 2008. Cockney Mafia Out flags in the ground, Some kind of KK nostalgia outside before the game also.
11 years (and counting), that's some protest (measured in duration not effectiveness of course).
You want tv money, you want global coverage,you want football on demand in your armchair?
This is the type of **** you attract. Get used to it.
A lot of clubs wish they could get the crowds Newcastle do when their fans are boycotting and staying away.
