Transfer Embargo

[HCAFCHangout]

When did we start signing players depending on their political views, or something they may or may not of said months/years ago? I thought we signed them on ability?

Since when was being racist a political standpoint?

keep trying to read the hull live articles but cant get past the adverts.
can somebody just clarify, does transfer fee restriction mean there is a limit on a fee that can be paid or is it a blanket ban from any fee and only free signings allowed?

we can sign frees and loans with no signing fee

The fact that there are other incidents of both greater and less severity is neither here nor there.

Calling a player of Arabic ethnicity a "smelly Arab/P****" is racist, that's not up for debate. It's not as though he said it by accident, or he didn't know what it meant, or whatever other excuse people come out with these days for this type of behaviour. He also called Dominic Iorfa a "peasant", which seemed...iffy.

I haven't seen any trace of an apology either, seems he denied having said it yet he accepted the punishment. Had he apologised and then done work for anti-racism charities in an effort to distance himself from the incident, I might be more forgiving.

As it stands, he can **** allllll the way off. I won't be renewing if we sign him.

He hasn't apogised, as he still claims he never said it.

Ta , Thought so, i just thought that was the case from the start, but then read one headline which suggested things had been lifted a bit to a fee restriction, so i thought that might mean we could spend a certain amount, etc

Do the EFL have any rules on signing racists as well as stupid transfer fees we can’t afford?

You insinuate that you know that the club owe money to 'a local removal firm'? If so that is scandalous. I cannot be a fortune after all? Call me old fashioned but I remember the days when a local firm, if owned money by the football club wouldn't go to the Football League asking why, they would plant a story in the local paper to draw attention to it. If the club are so short of ready cash to pay everyday bills like this then instead of offering free holidays to Turkey for a chosen few why not charter a plane, charge those who wish to go and use the profits from that to pay the removal man? . If it is indeed payment for the heat lamps then isn't that a matter for the SMC? This keeps popping up and is quickly kicked into the long grass by those who disagree, but we share a stadium with another club, like we share the pitch with one, a pitch costing over £1m to be relayed recently for example, and the extra cost of the heat lamps to maintain it. Is it too far fetched to expect the costs of such to be shared by the two clubs who use it?
Does anyone actually know who owns the SMC these days? Who are behind it, who benefits from it and who is responsible for it?
I know this accusation was often aimed at the Allams but do we know that ownership and responsibility for the SMC these days falls on the those who own Hull City? If so and the company is in financial difficulty for the very basics it needs to operate then perhaps they should look at increasing the costs to those who use it and not just expect one of the two partners to pay for everything? Just a thought.
Not paying for players is entirely down to those who run the football club.

The owner of Hull City also owns the stadium management company, they have since the stadium opened and that remains the case now.

The new pitch was laid for the benefit of Hull City, FC couldn't care less if there was a new pitch, it makes no difference to them if it's a bit patchy. The same as the expensive floodlights and media facilities, which were both Premier League requirements when we installed them.

He didn’t appeal it either. There were plenty of witnesses who testified against him. If he accepted responsibility and apologised for it, it would be a different story.

I still wouldn’t want us to sign him though because he’s slow and lazy.

SELLES?

He denied it at his hearing, he admitted calling him a 'peasant' and calling him 'smelly breath' and claimed it was in response to being called 'baldy'. The whole thing sounded very petty, Sais is actually French anyway, should have called him a smelly frog.

Imagine being bothered about what a player allegedly said 10 years ago.

If you're found guilty is it still 'allegedly'?

It is to me yeah. I once got blamed in school 30 years ago for blocking the sink taps in the bathroom and flooding it, but it weren’t me. Kangaroo courts mean **** all.

 

[Amin Arrears]

Back it up then. Provide a single post by me in this thread where I’ve wanted the club to fail or where I’ve been happy that we’re now in a three-window fee restriction.

I hope the club goes bust and Acun loses all his money. And I’m so happy we’re now in a three-window fee restriction

Red handed mate, can’t blag your way out of this one.

 

[The B&S Fanclub]

'The drama' has been going on since this news broke. 'The drama' is coming from people who are judge, jury and executioner before the detail has become knowledge.....

I'm actually surprised by the number of people who still seem to think they can
trust anything Acun says.....

.

Fair points....by both......See how easy it is to get sucked in by both sides of the proverbial coin. Oh missus..The dilemma of following my football club.
The 'he said/she said' never ceases to end in the crazy, crazy world that is HCAFC.

If we get McBurnie/Frigan/Shelvey and a loan or two for fullback or CMs we are completely fine if we get the fee restriction lifted in Jan.

We could be completely ****ed or we might not be, perfectly acceptable to discuss it but people absolutely love to lose their head both ways lol

Er ok, sorry to hear about that tragedy in your life. What would need to happen for it to go from allegedly to FACT in your mind?

It can affect people for a long time.

A teacher once went ballistic at me & sent me outside for “messing” about with stuff. Last flying lesson I ever had.

 

[Christophalophados]

Other than someone saying we owe money to a couple of companies for heat lamps and removals, no further updates?
