So you think the Allams have made nothing from owning Hull City? We had the same limited assets when they bought us off Bartlett for £40 million.
Yeah, but that was because they bought us because they wanted to give a gift to the local community, remember?
A. I never said they've not made anything. B. Fair point, but their ultimate objective was to get the KC for nowt or as good as nowt. When the fall out with HCC came and it was never resolved, then that's when they decided that the only direction was down. I have my own theory about the Duffen link..It might be* / could possibly be* a smoke and mirrors job to try and engender some interest, make it look like there is interest. When in point of fact there is none. This way no one can say they're not trying or willing to sell the club. When the club remains in their hands then they can say they tried... *But of course I don't know for sure and it's at best speculation on my behalf and not fact.
how many pages do people think this thread will last until we actually have new owners and have to change the thread title
I honestly thought it would happen during this international break. Silly me. Wouldn't it be nice if every now and then, someone from the club would tell us fans (their customers and life blood) what is going on? I know they can't divulge all the details, but at least say a weekly update. Nothing much worse than being ignored, especially when it's something you care about. Silly me. #uttercunts
The fact it's gone quiet is actually promising, in that it might be close to being done. You'd think if it collapsed there'd be news.
Wishful thinking I fear. Discussions going on for months. Period of exclusivity ended. DD done. And still nothing. Complicated by the rumoured further 'new' interest x2. Having gone from feeling very optimistic for it happening during this break #sillyme, I no longer share your optimism. Rather, I now fear the worst.
Syd’s right, in a situation like this, no news is good news (if it goes pear shaped, we’ll know about it).
Allam senior and junior held a meeting in Willerby Manor on Sunday. Two male guests who were unknown. Meeting was formal...not lunch Could be something....could be nowt
