You both A/ criticize those who oppose the name change; and B/ claim that you're indifferent to AA's plans. Are you schizophrenic? Or are you bi-polar? Or do you merely like to see your acid diatribes on the page?
no son.. I see it like this: I support the Allams. They are TRYING to develop the KC and TRYING to develop the land surrounding the stadium. But because the council wont part with them, they are only changing the name to piss off the council, I hope they move our club to Melton and leave the council with a white elephant.
Not suggesting for a second that would happen. I was just highlighting the bullshit Allam talks. He's forever saying he pays the bills, and in fact you're always telling us how little we matter to the club financially but it's all bollocks. Season pass income, excluding any merchandise, food, programme sales etc comes to about £8m if you were to say 20,000 at £400 each. The club needs us.
This is only thing I agree with anything you say. The sign at the KC saying "Hull City Council" must Urk Papa Allam every time he sees it, and he must feel it is a business opportunity wasted. Even though I am totally against the name change, this is what is probably what has fuelled it. http://www.express.co.uk/sport/foot...ress-sport-news (Daily Express :: Sport Feed)
I'm not siding with the council on the whole stadium thing but who in their right mind would just give away a stadium to a local team? Can you imagine the uproar of the best part of 1/4 million people saying that their taxes have paid for it & they are just giving it away? Even as City fans most on here would agree it would be a crazy idea. Coincidentally how much did it cost to build & what's the current value, I assume with the area around it too?
My understanding is the request wasn't to get the Stadium for free. The cost of building the complex can be misleading because it includes off site costs to secure the site in the first place. The Stadium arguably devalues the site as it limits what it can be used for. It'll be worth even less if the new investors feel a new stadium's a better option.
You possibly didn't mishear it, it was more likely the message published in the media was economical with the truth. Supposedly new Chinese investors on board or imminent. Some are saying it'd shift us to top eight in the club worth league.
Not really. It's just general whispers. I certainly don't have any contacts or inside information. It gets a mention on other boards on occasions. No idea how robust the rumours are though. CLICK It could all be a big wind up.

I noticed, unless you are subscibed to SKY, they give short clips to whet your appetite, but don't give you the whole thing.
