Here we go again...

[Sir Cheshire Ben]

Yes.

Then you've seriously misinterpreted the outcome.

 

[originallambrettaman]

Hmm...

"@BBCPaulMurphy: Confirms [HASHTAG]#HCAFC[/HASHTAG] name-change application to FA stands ‘as is’ and will not be modified to reflect FA criticism of it. Club remains for sale."

That's a really old tweet, it's from March 17th, it's got nothing to do with this new application.

 

[Obadiah]

Semantics. The point is that an independent body, empowered by both sides, declared the the process, begun last year with an application, as void. The process is the (rather confused) belonging of the FA. If you want to criticise the process, feel free, but that has nothing to do with Assem Allam.

It didn't declare the process void. It said the application was considered properly and the process was fair except in one respect, Malcolm Clark's failure to declare an interest in the Membership Committee meeting cast doubt on the decision. As a result the decision of the FA was suspect and void. That left a decision to be made on the application, the panel decided it wouldn't be right for the FA to consider the application this late in the season so it lay on the table. The panel said Hull City could put in a new application for next season. Not semantics at all, unless you said there would be no new application and changed your mind.

 

[StrovolosTiger]

The DECISION was deemed void, not the application.

Which part of that can you not get through your thick skull?

AGAIN, semantics, whether you call it The Application Process, The Decision or The Application, the fact remains that Assem Allam is not going back on his word because the original process was declared void.

 

[originallambrettaman]

If you think anyone at the FA is happy that this situation is continuing then you're a fool....................Oh wait a minute.

If you think anyone at all is happy with this situation continuing, then you're a cretin.

Our Chairman wants looking up, the mental old bastard.

 

[Tuckin]

Semantics.

In other words, "You're right, I was mistaken and I apologise for calling you nasty names when in fact it was I who was stupid."

 

[Kempton]

So AGAIN, the original application has been declared void, so Assem Allam is not going back on his word.

Strov,you have as much credibility as John, Walkington.

 

[ElTigre]

Hmm...

"@BBCPaulMurphy: Confirms [HASHTAG]#HCAFC[/HASHTAG] name-change application to FA stands ‘as is’ and will not be modified to reflect FA criticism of it. Club remains for sale."

Allam really is an old fool. Who was it who said that repeating the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result is a sign of madness?

 

[Sir Cheshire Ben]

AGAIN, semantics, whether you call it The Application Process, The Decision or The Application, the fact remains that Assem Allam is not going back on his word because the original process was declared void.

The process wasn't declared void.

 

[Quill]

AGAIN, semantics, whether you call it The Application Process, The Decision or The Application, the fact remains that Assem Allam is not going back on his word because the original process was declared void.

You need to look up the difference between application and decision.

 

[Leon...]

Strov,you have as much credibility as John, Walkington.

I genuinely fear they’re submitting John’s report this time.

 

[StrovolosTiger]

So if the decision on last years application is declared void where does that leave last years application as far as a decision is concerned right now?

 

[Ambraneri]

Allam really is an old fool. Who was it who said that repeating the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result is a sign of madness?

It was Assem Allam,in an interview the other week...

It wasn't his quote though,it was Churchill's.....or maybe Einstein??

 

[StrovolosTiger]

If you think anyone at all is happy with this situation continuing, then you're a cretin.

I'm not the cretin who posted a random picture of a group of men laughing.

Is he paying you, because its the only way I can imagine you could "void" this stuff
Semantics?
more like semen antics

 

[Sir Cheshire Ben]

So if the decision on last years application is declared void where does that leave last years application as far as a decision is concerned right now?

If you'd read the ruling you'd know.

Come on, admit it, you haven't read it have you?

 

[dennisboothstash]

So if the decision on last years application is declared void where does that leave last years application as far as a decision is concerned right now?

It leaves the club having to submit a new application because that was the decision of the panel, unanimously including the person picked by AA

 

[Billy Blys Cap]

Yes.

So if the decision on last years application is declared void where does that leave last years application as far as a decision is concerned right now?

Go and re-read the FA statement and try and understand it this time.

 

[Tuckin]

I'm not the cretin who posted a random picture of a group of men laughing.

If it helps at all, he nicked that from Mark Herman on Twitter.
