I dont think it would up their costs as they pay rent and im sure they have an agreement on the lease

I think it's ridiculous that the club feel they have to comment on every half @rsed rumour on here and out-of-context quote in the HDM. It's getting to be a full time job.

It is odd how the Club Captian was asked for his thoughts on the matter, why not just say "nah it wont happen end of, would be nice tho"

But What Radders said sadly puts him up for a public flogging on here, but why?

I'm sure if Gary Neville went in the media and said "i wouldn't mind a 39th prem league game to be played in Dubai" he would not be expected to be sacked as Club Captain of Man U or the club itself would not feel the self importance to comment on the matter.

So is this Hull FC's board testing the water?

Possibly rebuild Boulevard back to 15000 (lets admit at the current prices we have hit the crowd max for us i'd say) and play 2 derbys a year in a 35000 capacity KC so us and Rovers can get the maximum income from the minimum effort? Rovers could stay as they are as 9k is probably their max crowd so no more redevelopment there.

2 monster games a year?

70000 watching Hull v Rovers a season?

Me too.

Using what money?

Think it's about time Hull supporters stopped listening to Fifth Columnists that think that much of us that they can't seem to use their own forums.Stop looking back and look forward,the K.C. is the future, the Boulevard is the past.Don't let nostalgia cloud your judgement,the Boulevard would just be a millstone round the clubs neck.Stop listening to the Bandwagoners who love to come on here and try to undermine the club.Try and say anything on their site that they don't agree with and you are immediately banned.

If we left the KC, the SMC would have to pay off 20 years of a lease.

Afterall we know it's confidential and nobody here knows any terms or conditions

you may find out that radders was stitched up with the mail article,whats to say he said all of it the way the daily mail put it?

That's what my thoughts are on the matter. Nearly mail misquote from an off the cuff remark. Par for the course if you ask me.

When you say they would have to pay off 20 years of lease, you really need to clarify the fact that they would simply have to cover the shortfall of the rent they receive from Hull (and as the SMC and Hull City are effectively the same thing, thats why I said City's costs would inclease).

Hull would not receive anything if they left the KC voluntarily. Even if we were pushed out it would take a court decision to ratify it, and that simply will not happen.

when the KC stadium was first mutted was n't there some thing mentioned that it would only be built to home at least 2 professional clubs and if either did n't want to move in it would not have been built. i was also under the impression that Hull city council owned the ground (not Hull city) and it is managed by the smc so i wonder what the councils stance would be if ever the club did want to move?

wasnt the terms of the lease re-negotionable after five years anyway? sure i heard the club was in talks with the smc last year.
