    It's not a term I've heard or used before, but that may just be our business calling it something different.

    Its clear our (supporters) opinion is important to them.
    They have obviously been taking note of everything we have said, done and wanted.
    Because almost without exception they have always done the complete opposite.
    That's either an amazing co-incidence or petty and vidictive.

    Corporation tax is 19% and has been for a few years.

    What's the point in explaining, you won't take your blinkers of and move away from your one point that your holding onto, I'll give you a clue though...my point had nothing to do with asset stripping

    Hull City's tax losses have been transferred within the group to reduce tax paid.

    So you just rattled off player fees for the sake of it and not as evidence of anything? Fair enough then. There's no 'blinkers' there's just astonishment that there's still a section of supporters on here who think the Allams haven't systematically and substantially worsened the playing squad and pocketed a large percentage of the profits.

    Well spotted.
    Having got sick and tired of reading (scanning) endless messages, I've come to the conclusion that yes, it's semantics. It does depend on your own personal interpretation of 'asset stripping'. I see 'asset stripping' as literally stripping out anything of value and not replacing it (I believe you or ano said they are not replacing which is evidently not true). Rather than literal asset stripping I see it as they are 'just' replacing at much lower cost and banking on unearthing the occasional gem a la Bowen, Maguire, Robertson, Cluclas).
    Can we just agree that Ehab is an incompetent, arrogant, despicable, lying **** and then move on?

    The Dec 27th 1965 match against Millwall (40,000 +) was the one I remember most (1-0 City). We lost 3-0 at their place the following day:

    Waggy's goal @ B.P. :

    It was a Harry Cripps own goal. The following day we travelled down to The Den and lost 3-0 on a frozen pitch. City were told the pitch was perfect when they set off and apparently only took their normal boots, studs etc. When they got there it was frozen solid and we were slipping all over the place.

    Not directly but there has been "management charges" charged by Allamhouse:

    2014 £112k
    2015 £165k

    and "coincidently" Allamhouse paid director's remuneration of the following:

    2014 £186,250
    2015 £185,000

    Allams dont seem to have done anything illegal. I don't think Bartlett did anything illegal either. Most claims of illegality seem to have been against the Sheffield Mafia and Duffen.

    Instead of "asset stripping" why not call it "value stripping"?

    I was sat on the running track very near the goal. Cripps just stuck out his leg and directed it into the goal.
