I’ll alter that appearance number as ccs says it was 14 not 8.

Perhaps he should correct Wikipedia as they have 8.

Well Wiki are wrong as well Freddie, to be honest not being able to watch a lot of games really killed it for me, I don’t enjoy television matches, especially if it’s Hull, and that test match against France pretty much summed up the season.

Yes, reports in the Turkish media say Acun Ilıcalı has agreed to buy City for £30m.

“Ilıcalı said, "I want to fly the flag of our country in England with the success of Hull City. I hope that Hull City will consist of Turkish people, from their coaches to certain players in the future. My goal is to create a team that makes a sound in the world."

Makes sense for the Allam’s to sell now, as on current form City’s Sale price will be falling by the week.

If so, and the sale includes the SMC, hopefully Adam has a more workable relationship with the new owners going forward. There is no guarantee (not many football club owners are generous and friendly), though I doubt the relationship can be much worse as it has been in the past few seasons.

When they could have had £120+ a couple of years ago. Can’t see them holding onto The SMC surely? Wonder if that’s why there’s been no news on the passes?

In installments.It was in the media last week that he wants to pay the purchase price in installments plus an additional figure if the club are promoted into the Premier League.

When the USA buyer was interested in the club he pulled out when Allam insisted on an extra £5 million for the SMC.
The SMC valuation seems to be the sticking point to a genuine deal.
Can you imagine if Allam sells the club then decides to stick it to the Hull clubs and the supporters and keep the SMC under their control

Re: What now? : Wed Oct 27, 2021 2:52 pm  

I’ve heard that’s how the Allam’s negotiate. Get the deal to the line and then change the goalposts at the death and hope the other party is too far in to pull out.

As I said though, they’ll want out now. They’ve stripped most of the assets out of City, only KLP has any potential value. They won’t want to sack and pay off
McCann. Relegation looking probable, so take the money out while they can.

Thats my concern as its a possibility that is something the Allams would do to stick it to the fans of City, Adam Pearson and the City Council so I would hope that the Council have something in the terms of the agreement with regards the SMC running of the Stadium or have at least been prepared for this possible outcome since they put the club up for sale.
