For some reason, there's a full page write up on us in a Hong Kong newspaper today: http://www.flickr.com/photos/66454764@N06/6049798730/in/photostream This is just a thumbnail, check the Hull City Official Facebook page for the full size image(Adrian Wong's post).
No but i smell a 69 with egg fried rice and prawn Seriously, i am happy with the current set now thanks.
Not all Chinese business men are going to be involved involved with corruption are they? Having money in football is hardly a bad thing. Ask Man City
It would not be so bad if the Fit and Proper Persons act was used properly. But until such times treat them all the same and keep them at arms length.
In my experience, it's easier to find a corrupt English businessman, than a corrupt Hong Kong businessman.
Wasn't we just one of a small number of clubs to be doing some sort of development in China a few years back? I seem to recall reading something about it. Think Everton were one of the other clubs?
It's pretty much pot luck what you get with these big money takeovers, you either become Man City/Liverpool or Notts County/Birmingham/Portsmouth etc. I'm quite surprised no-one has (publicly) tried to buy us out, everything seems to be in place for some super rich Arab to pump money in (if you're reading ).
You need some money behind you to oil the machine, but would you really want a megabucks to come in and artificially pump the club? It might be different for you Leeds fans because of where you've come from - but from a City point of view -I'd want the club to be financially well off enough sign the right players to allow us to compete as well as we could - but something would stick in the throat if we ever ended up buying the league.
