You are asking far too much of Hull City Council. They couldn’t organise a booze up in a brewery. My mate used to work there and he said half of them would be better use sat in a corner with a box of crayons !

| Quote: Rugby Raider "Probably to help pay for the Allam’s ‘gift to the City!’
The SMC concept has been abused though. Not sure if it’s happened like that with other stadiums, like Man City move to the Etihad had a similar deal with the Council.
If it’s in the air with City being sold, wonder if there’s scope for Adam to buy it and regain ownership? Might cost a bit in the short term, but may provide more stability for us in the future and provide more revenue opportunities from the stadium.'"
Can he afford to do that ?

That’s exactly the reason for concern as you can bet that HCC have made a right balls up of the whole thing as they are so out of their depth. They make decisions when no one has any experience in the real world and seem to play with finances as though it was Monopoly money.

| Quote: UllFC "City have just confirmed that 'due diligence' is taking place with a potential buyer'"
The SMC has been and will always be the sticking point to any deal the Allams try to make to sell Hull City.
Its always been loss making whilst in their control yet they still want a substantial figure for it based on the £5 million pound figure reported when the USA buyer pulled out of the deal reporting that the goal posts had been moved.
In any case who in their right mind would pay £30 million for a club that could be relegated once again made loss last year of £8 million and is hamstrung in the transfer market until the EFL loan is repaid.
With no player value apart from Lewis Potter who could be valued at £2 million the club is virtually worthless.
The Turk has not even been to Hull,Not spoken with HCC and until Allam pays of the EFL loan nothing is going to happen even if Due Diligence is taking place.
In todays market as a relegation bound Championship club its probably valued at £10/15 million pounds so why would anyone want to pay £30 million.

Hello to you Isaiah,
Mustafa Kemal Ataturk the founder of modern Turkey in the thirties, also reformed the language from Persian and Arabic influences, but obviously some words still remain.
It’s interesting though isn’t it, that with all that rich culture and historical beauty that abounds this wonderful country, two ull supporters are fixated by the price of beer
You can take the man out of Hull as they say.

| Tyrone May has been released/sacked by the Panthers. His options in the NRL will be limited too, due to his past.
He's a half/utility. I wouldn't touch him with a barge pole, but if Reynolds stays in Aus.

| Pass details are out, doesn't seem anything different from an inital glance.
States that games will be on a Weekend where possible which I think is a good move.
The corporate crowd were a reason to stick to Friday nights but given the economy and that many are now working virtually I think corporate seats will be a tough sell.
Traffic in Hull is a nightmare these days too so getting to the stadium on a Thursday and Friday can take a while from some parts of Hull. It should help get more away fans in too.

its going to be a case of wait n see until the fixtures are out for me and probably many others, i personally think the club are taking a risk moving from fridays to weekends, a lot more people work saturdays and sundays than a friday night, just hope those that wanted change for families stick with their promise and buy passes! traffic isnt that bad coming in from west hull tbf, just set off a few minutes earlier to beat the rush

| It seems, as Adam actually goes into print again on these things, that the Stadium management company continue to make things difficult for us and that their costs have gone up considerably. He also indicates that we need the City Councils help on this too.

People work all sorts of days and hours now so there's never a perfect time, but I think it will help with away crowds, getting home after midnight on a Friday night isn't attractive to away fans.
I have thought for a while that SL needs to ban games taking place while a TV game is on too, there's no wonder our SKY deal is declining when thousands of fans are sat watching other games live in stadiums.

On the subject of the second, does anything change with them if this takeover of city happens or will the allams still own it?

Price freeze for 2 years is pretty good.
