    I absolutely believe that Kempton has heard a rumour
    I believe that the person who told Kempton the rumour believes it to be true
    I strongly suspect that the rumour has been deliberately started by someone in the Allam camp to temporarily deflect conversation away from their most recent shenanigans

    Hope for something better, but don’t take your eye off the current ****e

    That amuses me, as it’s like reading one of my old posts from 12-18 months ago. I agree with you, it’s all smoke and mirrors.

    I really do fear for the future of our club, as I can only see a desire for inflicting harm on its future being the secondary driver- behind financial returns - coming from the owners.

    I don’t know about other live-aways (such as myself), but maintaining a sense of belonging and support is now getting difficult. This board festers with endless vitriol about the ****e going on, endless comment about EA in every thread; it has started to make reading the threads unpleasant and unnecessary - I think the board long ago reached saturation point in the ownership stakes.

    I know many won’t agree, but we really do need to take a pause and realise just how well he is disrupting us and enjoying fracturing our way of life. This is no longer football suppport.

    "We can say that we've been approached"

    "We're in preliminary talks"

    "The Tigers is a strong worldwide brand"

    "Obviously all the correct paperwork and due diligence has to be completed"

    "We haven't received a firm offer"

    "We want to pass on the club to a good home"

    "The interested party wasn't aware that the stadium wouldn't be included"

    "The lack of planning permission awarded by the council has put them off"

    "The hooligan element at the home games when the interted party attended has given them cold feet"

    "Obviously this isn't London"

    "We haven't been recontacted"

    "Everything in the best interests of the club"

    "The parachute payments will be used to refund the gift returned ungratefully by the people of Hull"

    "There are no buyers at this stage"

    "Dad thinks squash is the thing to invest in"

    shouldn't it be in the plural 'Allams'?

    Maybe it’s to encourage us all to buy two each?

    If he sells enough scarves, he'll be able to buy the club.

    Depends at what stage of negotiations you're talking about.


    Initial enquiry £50M
    Halfway through negotiations £100M
    Days before signing on dotted line £200M

    Because the Allams want to make as much money from their 'gift' as they can?
    Because most fans despise them as owners?
    Because it's all gone tits up under Enob's stewardship and they realise he's totally out of his depth?
    Because 24 hours is nearly up?
    .....
    Sorry, seriously, it's up for sale for free, because that's what the old man said he would do ("a gift", "give it away", "24 hours"). They never go back on their word you know. They never lie.

    Some Russians are in town meeting the Allams,
    They think its all over
    It is now..


    Heard from my aunt's gardener, who knows a geezer who knows a geezer, that it might have something to do with the Marine side of the empire rather than City. Stay tuned for further Breaking News.....No don't bother, we already know the outcome.

    There's more chance of Trump and Kim Jong Un being best friends than Ehab being able to facilitate a takeover deal...

    7 years ago today I posted a FB status excited by a 2-2 draw with Leeds, and news of new owners who would wipe our debt.

    :(

    How long has it been since someone from the club has made a public statement about this?
