| Problem is I think giving him nothing is now going to be portrayed as being ungrateful and being difficult. The guy really is playing the long game here. In my view he has taken the decision that there are 20,000 hard core FC fans in a conurbation of 200,000. Make the minority seem the problem to the majority.

| Its like the moron is trying to drive an even bigger wedge between the rugby and football divide within the city but what the simpleton needs to ask himself is where does it leave the likes of myself who enjoy supporting both rugby and football? Does he now believe that i will spend another penny at city all the time that buffoon is in charge there and trying to ruin my rugby team?.........absolutely not! So there's your Johnny Whitely money lost straight away Allams and im just one very annoyed fan!

| Thats it for me!!!!! obviously it was agreed yesterday and someone has changed their minds the stories coming out of the council were all about £500 for everything and the Mail has led us up the garden path completely! I feel for our club they are now in an invidious position mnaipulated by the SMC. whichever way they turn they are wrong!

Why what has he done to fight your corner.
So far there is no statement from Adam Pearson or the club.

He hasn't parted with £20K for a start. Bit subtle for you perhaps.

I think his pockets are a little north of where they're located.

They don't want this fight. They are desperately hoping it goes away, how are you meant to position yourself as a councilor on this one it very difficult to come out on top which ever view you take.

You are not very bright are you.
Clauses dictate that publicly commenting on the lease agreement constitutes a breach of the agreement. Its been quoted about 4 times on this thread so far.

| So City are paying in the region of £50k to have the stadium decked out in their glorious memorabilia. For a club always on the brink that's great commercial sense. (I'm being flippant). To me this seems as though Allam has actually won. Let the boycott commence folks. It will cost him far more than. £20k.

| Do not often post - but like a lot of people I read these forums on a regular basis - this business with the SMC has enraged me so much. This man Allam seems to have no morals - OK he has donated a fair bit of his riches - but it seems to be to buy favour for some reason.
I thought the Stadium was a community stadium for the people of the city of Hull and East Riding of Yorkshire. Surely some sort of a compromise can be reached - possibly the public areas of the stadium should be adorned with memorabilia of the famous sons and daughters of Kingston upon Hull & the East Riding e.g William Wilberforce, Amy Johnson, Philip Larkin, James Reckitt, J Arthur Rank etc.. as well as memorabilia of famous sporting achievements of the city's local sports team and individuals.
A few weeks ago didn't Siemens attend an event at KC - what better message to put across to visitors than to show the history and achievement of Hull & the East Riding in a magnificent setting of the stadium.

| No need to worry. Timeshare Tony graciously offered to pay for JW's memorabilia and promised me the cheque was in the post.

| Here's a copy of the "current" HDM story. The last sentence is the key. No doubt it will change again.
Quote HULL FC would need to pay less than £500 a season to have legend Johnny Whiteley’s pictures back on display at the KC Stadium, sources have claimed.
And the Mail understands the Black and Whites have the option of decking out the entire inside of the KC Stadium in the colours on matchdays, replacing all Hull City images on a rotation system.
Icon: Johnny Whiteley outside the KC Stadium with a copy of the Mail's coverage of the memorabilia row
Fans have been angered after The Johnny Whiteley Suite was stripped of memorabilia showing the icon and other key chapters of the club’s history.
Ehab Allam, who, with his father, Assem, owns the Stadium Management Company (SMC) and Hull City – joint tenants of the stadium – has claimed the Super League club has chosen not to pay to display its memorabilia.
A source close to the dispute has now revealed further details of the deal over picture displaying at the KC. They say Hull FC have the option of displaying as few or as many pictures as they want on their own matchday. Individual pictures would cost just a few hundred pounds a season.
It is thought to display the amount of pictures previously used, it would cost the club around £20,000.
The source told the Mail: “Hull FC have been offered the opportunity to have their own club branding throughout the KC on match days but as yet have not taken up any offer.
“The cost could be minimal depending on what was requested. But it is still down to FC to fund that branding.”
As previously reported by the Mail this week, photographs of FC legend Mr Whiteley MBE have been taken down and replaced with images of Hull City’s finest moments.
Mr Whiteley, who made 418 appearances for the Black and Whites, visited the suite named after him last Thursday to find photographs had been replaced with images showing the Tigers hero Dean Windass.
According to the same source, photographs relating to the two clubs could be rotated for match days and other important occasions.
The source said the Allam family, through the SMC, had been forced to invest “significant” sums of money in maintaining the KC Stadium since taking over Hull City and were trying to recoup some of that cash.
“There has to be a commercial reality about this,” said the insider.
“This is a business that benefits all involved when it is operating properly and effectively.”
Hull City Council own the stadium, although SMC – under the terms of its lease – is responsible for its day-to-day running.
In statement issued on Monday afternoon, council leader Councillor Steve Brady appealed to the Allams to respect Mr Whiteley, one of the city’s best-loved sporting heroes.
Pete Allen, chairman of fans group Hull FC Voices, said supporters were eagerly awaiting a response from their club.
He said: “Fans have been up in arms over this.
“It upset a lot of people to read in the Mail how Gentleman Johnny had turned up at his suite to find photos of him had been taken down. We felt for him.”
Mr Allen said FC fans were keen not to become embroiled in a dispute with Hull City supporters.
“This has set City supporters against FC supporters,” he said. “This serves no purpose.
“Hull FC fans have never had any ambition to have sole ownership of the KC Stadium. It is a shared venue.”
Hull FC owner Adam Pearson was unavailable for comment last night.
• This story has been amended to make it clear that the £500 figure relates to displaying Johnny Whiteley's image alone, not the entire collection of memorabilia. We apologise for any confusion caused.'"

| The newspaper article says and note this because it is a fundimental change form the on line ammended article,
"Hull FC have been offered the opportunity to display their own Club branding throughout the KC on Match day but as yet have failed to to take up any offer. It is expected Hull FC would have to pay about £500 per season".
There is little doubt that someone who was doing the negotiating on behalf of the Stadium has changed their mind or had it changed for them.

I am being told through private sources that agreement was made between Ehab Allam and John North and then the old man got wind and changed it all again which really sums it up. It really is personnal as far as he is concerned - there is one word that sums this whole debacle up - PISSPOTACLE. By the way all dont read the sports pages in HDM read Ian Midgley - hits it on the Head.
