    and you're ****ing stupid if you don't think this is Allam's responsibility - the only reason the Lockeren fans are coming is to spend £20 each to Allam to watch his team - Allam has told the council to **** off in no uncertain terms on a number of occasions - in the circumstances it is therefore Allams responsibility to do what the council would normally do but for his attitude - he needs to stop acting like a **** although i dont expect he ever will - remember the council wee going to arrange a bus tour for the team but Allam told them to **** off he would do it himself - well then Allam do it your self - and as expected hes done **** all

    Umadbro?

    Seriously, get to ****. It is NOT Dr Allam's job to promote the city, nor to lay on stuff for visitors to the city. How the hell can you not see that this is a glorious opportunity for HCC, and especially Gerrahty and Brady to do themselves some much needed good? To actually do what they were elected for, and paid for? Unless they're quite confidant that actually, they don't need to do **** all, their jobs are safe as houses?

    You're actually blaming and spitting venom at Dr Allam when 100% HCC are doing **** all, despite it 100% being their ACTUAL JOBS. Leaving aside the Club v HCC bollocks, there is absolutely NO reason for HCC to do **** all, and every reason for them to do something, anything.

    It's very easy to say "the council should be doing this that and the other..." or "If they can find money for so-and-so, they should be able to find money for this."

    But it's naive bollox, as well you know.

    The budget is spent. You can't just magic funds out of thin air, you ****nuts.

    That's because Hull City Council is Labour, and they love spending other people's money.

    I'd vote to join East Riding Council, not the other way around.

    Terry Geraghty is just a dinosaur.

    I just see lost opportunities all around and a missed chance to promote the city of Hull

    People on the council what is your excuse when there are 1500 European visitors to our city . Don't we want tourists here ? It wouldn't even cost you anything if you sold beer and food you'd make money

    Terry Geraghty needs to go please do not ever vote for this man

    Nothing's changed. Geraghty's been a silly **** for ages, and it certainly doesn't stop Allam being a silly **** too.

    I don't think his problem is with Allam he just hates Hull City.

    There is no excusing Geraghty's petulant response in the HDM, the lunatic is damaging our city.

    Which actually makes it worse. No wonder Dr Allam despises the twat.

    Not sure if they teach this at your school but generally councils , Labour or otherwise tend to spend other peoples money it's called taxation clever lad.
    Of course you are free to put yourself forward for the council on the basis you'll only spend your money in elected
    Clearly in your case a little more on basics education wouldn't have gone amiss

    Every single post you make on this forum is a snide remark to one of my posts.

    Well done, you have now joined the exclusive club that is Patches O'Houlihan's Ignore List.

    Congratulations. <ok>

    Open up Hull City Hall. Iys already got bars. Order more beer in quick as ****. Have the Square in front of it for all the fans. Sell licences to food traders.

    So theres no money left? So if we get into the group stages the council will do nothing and let 1500 tourists x3 or more if we progress have nothing put on for them??

    Agreed. Geraghty's terrible. It doesn't get away from the fact that you can't suddenly produce funds once they've gone. And it's nowt to do with Labour being in charge; the aim of any local government is to spend their budgets before central governments slash them.

    Are our own fans allowed to engage with the Belgian fans coming over in the city centre before the match or will the over anxious police be in too much of a flap

    I can see the police misinterpreting peaceful gestures for signs of trouble and kicking up a funk full of moth

    The budget may well be spent but it wouldn't have cost Geraghty or the council a bean for him to simply say that he and Hull City Council welcome all the Belgium football fans with open arms and hope they enjoy everything the city has to offer......etc etc etc.

    Actually...I agree with your points here.

    I don't despise TG (and Brady for that matter) because he's Labour (far from it in fact) or in fact that he's a councillor (again, far from it) I despise him because he's frigging useless, and people still defend him and use his inability to do his job, and his clear dislike and disdain for our football club are evident and used as an excuse by him to do **** all, and this seems to encourage some to use it as an excuse to have a dig at Dr Allam, who whilst far from blameless is not at fault in this.

    Plus, despite being from Hull, despite being a representative of the people, despite holding the portfolio for advertising the city, he makes zero effort to disguise the fact he's an egg chasing fan and holds ALL OF US FOOTBALL FANS in total contempt. Yet some will still defend him. I don't get that at all.
