b) The costs involved in the larger retail area meant we chose the one we are in now. | | |

Deplorable, cheap shot. When the ayatollah unselfishly poured his millions into becoming the saviour "of ALL of the city's sporting clubs for the good of the people of Hull" perhaps he should have included the caveat; unless one of them becomes a hindrance to any potential development plans that I may hold. Philanthropist?

This feud with Allam needs sorting.
His petty cheap shots against our Club are getting out of hand now.
What has this so called saviour of all Hull`s sporting teams done for us ?
Time for action from us I feel.

To whom it may concern.
I am contacting you regarding recent developments at the Kingston Communication Stadium, when the stadium was first built it was "a community sports facility and home for Hull City and Hull FC, a stadium for the East Riding of Yorkshire and the City of Hull". Hull City and Hull FC moved in; Hull City were in the 3rd division at this point and would not have been able to afford the Kingston Communication Stadium had it not been for Hull FC agreeing to move into a shared facility and share the burden of running costs etc.
You note, I hope, the use of the word "shared" in terms of both the facility and also the associated costs. It is this "shared" element that I want to bring into question.
I do not know the last time you visited the Kingston Communications stadium, but you may recall that, on approach to the main reception there were, previously, three flags flying, a Hull City Council flag (rightly, as the owners of the stadium and the organisation that should be proud to have provided a facility for the people), Hull City (again, rightly, as a joint tenant of the facility) and Hull FC, (again, rightly as a joint tenant of the facility). In the reception area there were all manner of photo's, images etc. celebrating the proud history of the two joint tenants, as well as in the various corridoors and offices. The numerous suites and conferencing facilitiess were named after appropriate individuals from both teams past and each room was adorned with suitable and relevant pictures and images to celebrate the achievements of those individuals. The only room that wasn't named after a sports person was The Circle restaurant, Using the name "The Circle" was a reference to the cricket facility that once proudly stood where the Kingston Communication staidum now stands.
All of this continued for many years, with both clubs enjoying an equal standing on the agreement that, on occasion, one club may need to take priority dependant on the stage in their season, this equality worked well and few, if any, disagreements occured.
Unfortunately, if you visit the KC now you cannot even tell that anyone other than Hull City is involved with the stadium, a giant Black Cat spreads across the font glass elevation, the Hull City Council and Hull FC flags are nowhere to be seen. The Johnny Whitely Suite (who I might remind you is a freeman of the City and County of Kingston Upon Hull" is still there, but it is now bereft of any pictures or images of the great man, no celebration of his contribution to the City which he clearly and dearly loves, in fact, there's little or no evidence of Hull FC at all, no pictures in corridoors, no images of any of the players whose names to which the the suites and conference facilities are referred to.
If I am to believe what I am told, and I have no reason not to, Hull FC were even refused permission for their goal kicker, Daniel Holdsworth, to undertake a short kicking practice at the start of the season, an opportunity that has been affored to Hull FC for every season previous to 2013. My understanding that this was not a decision made by the ground staff, but the Stadium Management Company.
It appears to me that it is the Stadium Management Company who are at the centre off the current, and it appears, deteriorating, situation. Requiring Hull FC to pay to put their flag up, to pay to put pictures up in the suites that bare the name of their greatest and much loved heros. Now, as far as I recall, the Stadium Management Company have a 50 year lease, I woud like to know what provisions there are in that lease for these, "commercial" decisions to have been made, and what, as the owner of the stadium and surrounds Hull City Countil think of the disparity of treatment between the two joint (there' that word again) tenants.
I am sure we can all speculate as to the reasons behind the apparent change in the Stadium Management Companies attitude, possibly even down to a few individuals, we could also speculate as to why an appointment to the Stadium Managemnt Company of a senior figure at Hull FC's cross city rivals Hull KR was made, but in my experience speculation achieves little.
What would be really good is if someone, either in the media or in a position of power at Hull City Council (or both), could investigate the situation at the Kingston Communication Stadium and explain to the fans of boths clubs, and the electorate at large, why this disparity of opportunity has come about, and what can be done to redress the balance between the joint tenants in a shared community facility.
I look forward with interest to see how things progresses.
Kind Regards'"
