    I have no idea. I suspect he'll be sat there sweating over another problem the Allams have caused. The joys of leadership.

    I did, but there is a difference between having a friendly landlord and having a hostile one. Sitting around a table discussing how the stadium could break even in a friendly manner with Cllr Brady and Co is very different from sitting around the table with a Council spitting feathers and having to break even, especially when the only way it could do that is by a substantial rent increase for Hull City Tigers Limited.

    Sadly, as with most things the Allams do they'd rather burn bridges than build them.

    They were hardly friendly a few years ago though.
    They've gated it off now and separated it, maybe they're going to declare independence. Like passport to pimlico

    I suspect Kempton, there would be a very long queue wanting to manslaughter Ehab.

    Apart from one or to botty lickers on here.

    Aye, I know, although I am far from sure about having to write loans off. There would be consequences for HCC, too. Just one suitor in the wings, one who bailed at adopting the SMC and it's a game changer.

    But of course, my post was just me daydreaming, a tad tongue-in-cheek, as, just like plenty of others, I really know **** all about the detail. :emoticon-0105-wink:

    That would cost them money.

    Perhaps when they flog Bowen, they will get proper security people doing proper security searches on..... err well there will be no ****er going so the searches will be pointless.

    Oh, I forgot. They **** off price hikes and brow beating and say no games or move them to wherever they want - they don't give a **** about the fans, it would be the fault of HCC and their lawyers would make hay ...

    .. it's all quite obvious in my world. :emoticon-0103-cool:

    As soon as the whole area is gated off Assem and Ehab will be holding their own two man Catalan style referendum for independence
    Unless the result is 50/50 they'll get what they always wanted by renaming the area round the ground as 'Melton'

    Nobody bailed due to adopting the SMC, all the offers were including the SMC, as obviously anyone owning the club wants control of the stadium.

    After the disappointing attendances of recent seasons, Allam Snr has obviously told Ehab to "Get the gates up".

    The rest is history as they say.

    The quote related to closing during the Fair, it's not about the original need for a gate in the first place.

    Yes they were hardly friendly but they could have repaired the damage if they both wanted to. With each new provocation that gets more and more difficult. If Inglis' views represent a substantial number of Councillors then the Council may have the balls to take the Allams on and try and retake their stadium. Alternatively it may be the last gasp of Councillor Inglis before he retires.

    Interesting times

    Not quite a farce.

    Maybe a case of someone telling porkies. Not for the first time.

    We're getting one according to Ehabs propaganda video a while back. And some on here believed him even went so far as to tell us know nowts it would be Steve Maclaren.

    Correct and the gate will be open for the duration of the Fair. Storm in a tea cup as usual.

    That's not how I read it at all
    The first paragraph says it's closed on Police advice
    The second paragraph says that therefore people will have to go round for the fair

    You forget to add..........the only way they could do that is by a substantial rent increase for Hull City........ AND Hull FC, so it will never happen.
