Quote: Mulder "If City do stay up and it’s a big if one obstacle to finding someone to buy them is the fact the KC doesn’t belong to them.'"

Is it? Why?

Quote: Mulder "If the City Council did agree to the sale of the stadium this could make the purchase of the club an attractive proposition.'"

Again, why? City have lost money hand over fist without the cost of a single-use stadium hanging round their necks. If anything outright ownership of an expensive stadium that can only be used for soccer would make the club significantly [iless[/i attractive.

Quote: Mulder "Would the Council then upgrade the Boulevard with a portion of the proceeds?'"

If the council sold the stadium we wouldn't [ineed[/i an upgraded Boulevard - we could afford to build our own stadium if we so wished.

KC Groundman has already stated that its the Football that causes most damage to the pitch, not the rugby.

The fact that Hull City hasn’t any assets is an obstacle for any prospective buyer.
The present owner of the club stated in the past that he needed to develop the stadium to make it a more viable proposition.

Quote: Kosh "There is a point at which the probability of something happening so closely approaches zero that to all intents and purposes it can be considered to be impossible.

This is getting into that territory.'"

Nothing story in a rubbish newspaper, with one not very interesting quote. Wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

Purely hypothetical, but could you really? You'd be looking at maybe £20m. I doubt you'd get anything like that as compensation.

A stadium is only an asset if it brings in more cash than it costs. The KC would not do that as a single occupancy stadium.

Quote: Mulder "The present owner of the club stated in the past that he needed to develop the stadium to make it a more viable proposition.'"

A more viable proposition how? If he was talking about getting more punters in he would need a team capable of competing. And he'd need a pretty big crowd increase to match the income from having FC play there.

But if/when City go to the wall, we will be sole occupiers of the KC!

Nobody is. It's quite good fun stringing the poor Rovers troll along though. 2.6767578125:10
