Good riddance. If there was a way of getting him there I'd be jumping up and down.

Won't happen though. Disaster for Hull City if he did, but he can't raise the cash without the KC for a sports village there (unless ERYC give him a £40k building to borrow against ) and the people of Melton wouldn't tolerate it.

Anyway - what's in a move to Melton for him, in reality? He never had any intention of building a sports village, just of acquiring prime commercial land in the middle of Hull. He's spent enough on City - he aint going to dig deep to build a stadium as well. I really think we'll see a lot of backtracking soon if he can't get Hull CC to reconsider and Hull City will be on the market again. Feel sorry for their (so shortsighted) fans, really.

I'm certain Allam will use the threat as a last tactic, though. The council have passed with flying colours so far, hope they will see through this as well and not bow to the inevitable blinded public opinion.

Excellent news, hope this signals the end of the Allams. His plans were ridiculous and had no benefit for Hull FC.

Good riddance.

Great this, I await all the idiotic rovers fans explaining this one to me once again. Cretins. Wonder what Allams million into rovers means now.
Heard so much diatribe from people (not on here) and cannot wait to ram this back down their throats.

Even Gollom almost touched on the fact that the guy is a fruit loop last night but just stayed clear from actually saying it.

What i dont get is why all journalists seemed scared to speak out against him.

All I would say to anyone who loves Hull Fc and reads this board is Listen Again on Radio Humberside's site to lasts night Sports Talk it is 23 minutes in there you will hear the Portfolio Holder for Culture and Leisure who says Hull FC "could have been out of the Stadium in 15 months"

Fully agree , Bye Bye Allam.

our Leader on Burnsy's show in a mo

All I've heard this morning on radio is that HCC will not sell the KC because of Hull fc.
NO MENTION THE GUY'S A FOOKING FRUIT LOOP.

I was amazed to hear Terry Geraghty give such a precise prediction as 15 months.
It begs the question what information he had on the future plans for the Stadium.

So allam is telling the council that Hull FC are costing him "a lot of money"?

Now the 2 possible scenarios from that for me are that either allam is the one funding pearson's purchase of the club or that pearson's club are a thorn in allam's side which would, presumably, make pearson's position at city difficult

At the back of your nice building you have a very large piece of land.
I have an idea !
I will build a super extension that can be used for the benefit of all including yourself. In fact I will make a mammoth investment to make it happen.
As your part of the deal you just have to sign over to me the title deeds of your building, as well as the land of course. Its a simple as that ! and any profits from the agreement will be erm.......mine.
Should at some time in the future I decide to sell any part of the the new super extension or indeed the existing building then any person dwelling there will of course be given very good notice of this event, and will be given ample time to find a new home somewhere. But trust me you are safe , it will never happen. Why would anyone ever want to sell land or buildings for profit ? It just never happens. So... what do you think, do we have a deal ?

Councillor Terry Geraghty "Assam Allam wanted to tear up the Hull FC lease on the stadium".

Interesting.

I'm unsure how any sports related facility in Hull would possibly finance £60/70m+ of debt, let alone provide a decent return

Tear up as in kick out, or tear up as in its not the right type of deal ?
