Right wing response? Is that because hull city council is labour or because they're spineless?
Are you some tree hugging leftie?

Aye.
The big question is whether or not running that stadium is an expensive privilege. If it is then the council have to outsource the power with the responsibility, or take it on themselves.
I'm not defending Allam's use of that power, but if the SMC is running a real loss on Hull FC games and can save money by not opening a stand, without breaching their contract with the club, I can see why Allam would make that a priority. A 3 sided KC still provides ample capacity, tbf.
I think ultimately, if the smc genuinely is loss making, a new settlement will have to be reached at some point. What exactly that would be, I'm not sure - but we're unlikely to see it while Allam is on the scene.
If SMC accounts paint an unrealistically bleak picture, the council's hand is obviously much stronger.

If you get sacked on the spot unfairly,you appeal it,pearson didnt so he must have deserved it.Wilf would no doubt know the reason thats why I asked,saves all the speculation,but whatever it was allam isnt going to forget it hence him giving us a tough time.

If the Allams/SMC had approached HullFC about closing the North stand for 2015, and moving fans to the new away area in the East Stand before our season tickets went on sale, I'd say that most fans would be understanding. Especially as the East/North corner is unreserved for FC games and you can argue that having the small number of away fans we get at the KC nearer the home fans might improve the atmosphere.
however if its true that this issue has just come to light, a good couple of months after passes have gone on sale, it yet again smacks of being a petty move intended to cause disruption.

Pearson sued Allam and the case was settled at a mediation. The settlement was subject to a confidentiality agreement.

| It would now appear that 'should there be any truth in these rumours' then after 'discussions' this morning apparently any issues there might have been regarding the North Stand has been resolved, sense has prevailed, an agreement reached and all the ground will now be open for all games in our 150th year! Oh and of course some folks will deny there was ever even an issue in the first place!
