I wonder if they know who William Wilberforce was, because his picture was still up in the Wilberforce suite.

What a ing mess this is.

We were guaranteed income from bars at KC at the same level as what we got from Boulevard in our last season

It was in the original Richardson stuff

Yep..although without sounding over dramatic I fear crisis maybe the right word

Correct, the SMC sold these packages, so you would assume some funds would be given to each club, or in City's case a different pocket

They did a survey

He challenged Hull FC to waive a confidentiality clause over their SMC agreement, saying he would be happy for an "open book" on all matters around the running of the KC.
"I would urge Hull FC to agree to lifting the confidentiality over this matter and then the public can be given the full picture," Mr Allam told the Mail.


Now Forgive me if I'm wrong but to continue coming out with financial details is surely breaking the confidentiality clause he's asking Hull fc to waive

Nope

the 42 lifers were dealt with by Richardson and just ring up every year to get a pass

Would it be better if the SMC was owned and run seperately from the football and rugby clubs?

That is how things should have been done from the start.

If Ehab Allem has opened the door for us to break the clause, then for me that lifts any gagging clause we have, theyve come out with details, we should now be allowed to respond in a professional manner

What was the phrase used in the trial

"i hope your better than Ehab"

Until AP makes a statement I will be the first to apologize to the Allams as I assumed they had just taken down our memorabilia.

I will be more than happy to retract that apology if AP can convince me that it was in the best interest of our club not to pay a few hundred quid to SMC, or offer us an adequate explanation.
Now AP is not shy with his statements to the press as we found out last season and if he can be publicly critical of his own players I am sure he will have no problem being critical of people who are not even part of our great club.

Is this common knowledge, how do you know this.

If the Allam's are challenging the club to break their silence/gagging order then does this suggest that they are confident in what will come out?

Did you read the link?

The Allam's have played a blinder here. FC fans are now even starting to question FC and how they have managed the situation.

Call them what you will but lacking cofidence will never be one of them

Quite.

No chance of the status quo being restored now.

Problem is that their confidence maybe justified in this case as reading between the lines the SMC agreement does favor FC compared to City.

This is all part of the plan of isolating the minority of FC fans to achieve the end goal.

So all the time we were being told that we made no money from the concessions that was untrue? Or at least not quite true if we have a guaranteed flat income regardless of sales.

Two points to bear in mind here:

1. The SMC has always been owned by the owners of City. Regardless of how good or bad the deal is, no money actually changes hands.
2. If the deal for City is that bad, why not change it? See point 1.
