Steve Bruce now convinced Hull City can reach Premier League

“Don't worry about the stadium issue....

The Allams have the means to build Hull City a far better stadium and believe it or not plans are already in place .

Hull council won't spend a penny on doing up the Costello stadium, they have no money.

The backward council should have bite The Allams hands off when the offer was on the table to build a fantastic sports village , create loads of Jobs and revitalise the tatty Walton st car park.

IF and take note I said IF.......if the Allams can get Hull city into the premier league, and keep them there then the new stadium will happen.

The Allams know exactly what they are doing....

The plan is to give Hull a team to be proud of......

IT WAS NEVER ABOUT MAKING WADS OF MONEY..

Go up....spend a bit....Bank a bit ....and take back a bit of what the Allams have spent...

No way will the Allams mess up like the last lot did....

Anyone who doubts the Allam Family must be blind...

here's hoping we can beat Palace....it won't be easy....no game is in this league..

Before the season started I said we would make the play offs.....WE WILL.

we have a chance of an automatic spot but so do 5 or 6 other teams...

FINGERS CROSSED.... I call on ALL city fans to get to the KC games IF possible....get behind the team...and let's roar the Tigers on to promotion ...lets top 20,000 next home game v Forest...

The owners , Manager and Players are doing there best.....we fans need to give our all..

ASSEM AND EHAB ALLAMS BLACK AND AMBER ARMY”

“a point would be good from tomorrows game - its one of those where if you were offered a point before the game you would take it, the key to promotion will be winning the games you would expect the tigers to win, bristol, barnsley and burnley type games”

“Great idea regards upgrading Costello stadium for a state of the rt facility for both athletics and Rugby. The benefits would be 2 fold, first Hull fc would have a stadium that better suits the capacity requirements, as at the moment the kc is half full which is counter productive in generating an intimidating atmosphere for away teams.
Secondly, with a sizable state of the art athletics facility we could push for hosting grand prix athletic events national trials etc putting Hull on the map once and for all. Win Win situation.”

“Good point by TigerPhil about the future of the KC, especially after Leicester announced they are buying their stadium. If we envisage a long term future in the Premiership, it is vital that the Allams can plough money in to the KC to upgrade facilities and ensure we have a stadium to be proud of going forwards. Why would they do this if the club doesn't own the stadium? Does anyone know if the land on which the KC stands, is covenanted in perpetuity for the people of Hull? I assume that West Park was given to the people of Hull many years ago by a benefactor and there were probably conditions that forbids the sale of the land. Would it therefore be possible for the council to retain ownership of the LAND but sell the stadium BUILDING to HCAFC? Based on the valuation of Leicester's stadium (£17 million freehold), the KC could be sold for considerably less leasehold. Not a perfect solution, but one in which the Council doesn't lose face, the Allams can own the stadium and can justify raising millions more to improve the stadium and surrounding area. The council could then use the sale money to upgrade Costello stadium for Hull FC to use as their new home ground, thereby ensuring all the biggest sporting clubs in the city have their own stadia.”

“I have been convinced for a while that we can do it - the only thing was through the lottery of the play offs or as an automatic place... I honestly feel we can actually catch Cardiff... They are on a bit of a slide at the moment. Have taken a dip in form- something we suffered in January. They look like they have the jitters....

That being said. If we go up what next???

Well there are 2 options- we come straight back down (I reckon we would be most people's choices for that) or we have a season like we did the 1st one in the PL.. I feel the issue with regards the stadium needs resolving- big time. I have just noticed that Leicester's owners have recently purchased the stadium (and surrounding area- which is already built upon with bits and pieces) for around £17M. Their stadium is bigger than the KC (holding over 32,500). The surrounding land is already built upon - offering around £15M wouldn't be too much of an issue for me.... This is something that would need to be sorted.

Also a big issue for me is the state of the pitch. We need the lights and the growing conditions for getting the pitch up to scratch. We are a good footballing side... We need a good footballing pitch.... (And no I am not blaming rugby!)”

“I have no doubt we will beat Palace tomorrow night. Our problem has been this season dropping points against teams you would expect us to beat. Just shows how competative this division really is.
Right off to Croydon for the night. Looking forward to being able to travel around London of my own free will and have a few beers before i Walk of my own free will to the match. I shall make the most of the luxury of freedom of movement whilst i can.”

“It was fantastic on Saturday, I'd forgotten how good it felt to watch a good strike partnership, and being confident that we'd score when in a one on one situation.

Gedo & Boyd seemed to strike up an immediate understanding, a sure sign of natural finishers and quality players.

Bring on Palace!”

“Great result on Saturday, especially scoring 5.

Starting to get really nervous, though, of the run-in with Watford snapping at our heels.

Very difficult away game tomorrow and Watford are at home.”
