Quote: Jake the Peg "I really think that the club need to start talking to the council, the press and the fans about the KC situation ASAP. Problem with having owners who are not fans is that if there is a short term gain they will take it irrespective of any long term downsides'"

totally agree with that.once this guy gets his hands on the kc.anything could happen...scarry stuff!!

you believe him, that is up to you, I have to question why he's done nothing for 35 years, suddenly buys a football club, and attempts to become apparently benevolent.

He's no Marvell, Holtby or Wilberforce.

allam may have no other motive than to leave a legacy for teh people of Hull, which is fine and dandy. Problem for us is that once he buys teh stadium then our home is directly linked to the financial success of the football club and his "sports village". It will be hocked to the lenders and should things go pop we'll likely find ourselves in a difficult situation.

Conversely, when the allam family decide to sell up, then we'll be left with a landlord who likely has no interest in our club.

Neither scenario fills me with much comfort.

The likelihood of a sports facility costing £100m+ in Hull being a financial success is pretty remote IMO

Quote: Mild mannered Janitor "Am I the only one who seem the irony in this?

A councillor saying to a wealthy person, what have they done for East Hull
Perhaps the residents of West Hull should be asking the council what THEY have done for West Hull in return for the millions spent on East Park and the Preston Road regeneration?

As for the selling of the KC, I've spoken to a few people who are up in arms about this and have no interest in any of the sporting teams.

The way the Allams are going about the whole business tends to rile many people.

[i"If I don't get the KC I will go to Melton and built one there"[/i is hardly helping to create an atmosphere of benevolance with the city fathers or the the general populace. City seem to buying a lot of bargain basement youngsters with a view to improving them over time, not the actions of someone aiming for the Premier division of the Football. To many things surround the whole aspect of the proposed deal as to leave many of us worrying we are being lead, pushed , dragged kicking and screaming to something now one really wants.

I remain confident that this whole thing will end up flat on its face shortly due to the Allams having to make some sort of publically accountable offer for the KC and at that point it hits the buffers. The local rag seem to be hand and glove in league with the Allams at the moment, with Radio Humberside also alighning itself neatly behind it. This does seem to give a head of steam to a mounting campaign to seel quickly and cheaply to the Allams.
