I'm just a breath of truth in the dank cellar of misinformation.

At this stage, the back of a fag packets fine. I see from other much publicised reports that you've done the basic homework on it, and your track record of being a self made multi-millionaire as well as very gernerous benefactor to many, many causes should give a bit of confidence to all but the less bright.

I can see why you wouldn't feel the need to show the plans to some, especially if they've already made it clear they'll object what ever the proposal.
In any event, all the proposals are open to negotiation, such is the way of business that seems to confuse some. I mean, some don't even know the difference between a leisure complex and Olympic facilities.

As for covenants etc, again, they can be looked at if and when ageement in principle's reached that the scheme can be considered. I'm sure a bright fellow like you wouldn't waste your time and money on something that was never going to get off the ground. Have a look at Siemens approaches before they made firm commiyments for similar patterns.

best be careful with these things though, once politics gets involved the truth can get misted in propoganda. It's a problem that's held this City back for years.

I'll bow to your knowledge of insanity, you seem much nearer to it than I am.

I've got a feeling you want the council to give Allam the KC stadium because it benefits Hull City AFC.
Anyway - that's my last word on the matter.

I wont be saying anything else on this subject.

Nothing more coming from me - that's it.

Off back to Melton now. Your loss not mine. End of chat.

Then your feeling would be wrong.

My opinion's nothing to do with wether I'm a football fan, it's based on being a proud citizen of Hull. If someone wants to discuss a £150 million proposal that could well lead to further inward investment, I think the civic leaders should be capable of listening with an open mind and seeing if there's room for negotiating a decent deal for all parties, not slamming the door shut after the first meeting.

even if the person proposing it is using smoke and mirrors, shouty language and general idiocy!

And that's just the portfolio holder. Fortunately legal and other experts would peruse any firm proposals and make suggestions to committees before anyone needs to buy a shovel.

no, that's your mate Mr Allam, the one who is am imbecile, I can see why you get along.

The self made multi-millionaire? Who unfortunately isn't my mate, nor do I blindly support him, as some fools seem to do with others.

I don't think either party's come out of this very well, but it's a shame for Hull that potential high value investors could be put off from much needed investment in this area.
