I understand the point the new owners have made regarding footing bills etc, the club cannot expect things to be done free of charge and I would like to think AP is smart enough to accept that.

I think there is signs that the relationship between the club and SMC will improve over time. Would the Allams have let the club open the stadium for Johnny's memorial service? I doubt it.

Any plans to name a stand after JW will take time, I personally don't think it will happen, but I am confident the club and council will find a fitting way to honour him.

Isn't that why we pay a huge amount to play at the ground?

Yeah, very fair point. You'd like to think our rent includes for maintenance etc. The Neglect to the ground and surrounding area from the Allams sadly might have to come at an additional cost mind.

This is what irks me, it's rubbish spouted like paying others bill's sounds like we use the stadium for nothing!

At least Adam is in the position of knowing the SMC side of things inside out having been involved from the initial set up and he's seen 1st hand how the Allams have loaded it in debt, it must look a horrific prospect for the new owners. Perhaps he'll be offered a place on the SMC, if he's confident further revenue streams can be exploited it could be a big positive and the chance to make the SMC profitable again can only be attractive to both parties.

Apparently there was an audience with Acun tonight at the MKM. Nick Barmby (obviously a massive FC fan) was a speaker also. And rugby league got discussed as well. One City fan posted on their forum: "FC is our city’s team??? Thought I’d be the first to say this. Acun Out."
Anyone listen / attend - wonder what the context was.

Basically an FC fan had managed to get in and asked Acun what will he do for FC, Rob Palmer whoever he is then tried explaining the city's a big rugby league City with 2 teams, Hull and rovers and touched on the rivalry.
Sounded abit cringey asking him what he's going to do for us when he's bought Hull City.

I'm sure Adam with his recent airing of our high rent fees will sort us a decent deal out to stay.

Congrats to the FC fan

Fair play to the FC fan for that

But it’s the council we need to be constantly asking what they are going to do for us?

Time they played fair?

Very good to hear, and things will only improve as time goes on.
AP doesn’t seem as jaded as he would be entitled to be. Seems to still be up for the fight.

Good to hear relations are better and it was notable that City moved their game to Sunday for the Derby, reverting back to the previous gentlemans agreement where we have priority in September and City in May.

Hoping the SMC spend a bit of money on the ground next summer, pitch needs a new astroturf surround, and it's all looking a bit tatty. A good jet wash would do wonders for the seating area!

Gone a bit quiet on the take over has it not

At least we don't need to worry about our future if City get back in the Premier League! Sounding like another taxi jay be arriving at the stadium soon to take another failing manager away...

Was wondering myself how patient the new owner will be with the manager
