| Sounds very similar to the Darlington fc scenario with George Reynolds.He built a 25k stadium on the edge of the town,and their crowds were and still are around 2000!!!! He was very much a media whore,just like the allams(and justin  )

| Quote nick hkr="nick hkr"Are you really going to continue going on about a loan from HCC? Get it into that head of yours, Rovers and partners are going to have to PAY BACK the money we have borrowed.
This city voted these councillors in, if they decide to sell the community stadium why should they hand you cash to build a new stadium? it wasnt them that built it in the first place and you agreed to move from the Boulevard. Nobody elses fault is it? (Your logic not mine).
We refused to use the stadium just as much as your fans would refuse to move to Melton. We are an East Hull team and should not be expected to move to a West Hull home. The council knew we would refuse but had to be seen to offer the oportunity even though it would have made it very difficult given the rules about playing a match the night before a football game.
Basically if you were to accept a new 20k stadium from the council they would have to at least offer us a similar deal. If it were to be built at say Costello do you honestly think they could again offer us use of the stadium given East Hull has little enough as it is?'"
correct me if i am wrong but the first site disgust for the kc was in east hull (leads rd sutton rd ) before they built on it

Rovers looked at that site in the late 80's before they moved to NCP

| Not a bluff according to Burnsy. Gone beyond initial thoughts - preliminary discussions with East Riding Council? Might have missed some of it though.

| Hopefully they'll buy the KC, and the council will use the money to build us a new RL-purpose stadium for us. If Rovers want the council to spend money on them, they'll have to be willing to give up their ground and pay rent to the council. Is that something they want to do considering that's the one thing they hark on about that they don't have to do?
Would love to see us at our own 18-20k ground with terracing. The atmosphere would be so much better.

| Cant happen, he cant afford to buy HCFC out of the very long lease they & us are tied into with SMC , even if he has his fingers in that pie.Its bluster to get his own way on buying the KC.City are fairly buoyant at the min but IF it goes Pete Tong how quick will their gates drop? No doubt Mr A will be providing a free park & ride.

| This is little short of blackmail by the Allams. Moving Hull City out of the city will have a huge effect on the local economy.
They are living in cloud cuckoo land if they think they will get anywhere near 40,000 crowds in Melton.

| Starting to get concerned about the Allam's already.
firstly they don't need this new ground. City need maybe 5K extra seats (which an extra tier on the East Stand would provide) for the 'big' Championship games such as Leeds. They simply won't get 40K playing teams like Barnsley, even at cheaper prices. I'm not even convinced that they'd get 40K every week in the Premiership either.
Melton would be inaccessible to many fans (all fans would have to drive there) and would be a traffic nightmare, this would rip the heart out of the club.

Spot on, although the idea is obviously to establish city as a Premier League team, not try and get 40k watching Barnsley
