Talk about putting your energy into random acts of destruction! Nuts!

I said this a while ago, but I just don't see what the end game is here now. As most sane people recognised early on, objective 1 was to get the stadium for nowt and borrow against it for a commercial development. When that door was shut my perception is that everyone then became a target for different reasons - the council for not gifting him a public asset for private company game, FC for sharing the tenancy, City's own fans for not buying a baseless marketing idea.. but what is the ultimate objective. City are currently a viable operation and need to remain so for him to protect his investment, but is peeing off the FA and City's fans the best way to continue? Or creating a storm in the press on a daily basis? What exactly is success now for Allam? I have absolutely no idea.
A lot of MD's / CEO's are driven and intelligent. But, they are in come cases genetically predisposed for meglomania (one gene away from serial killers if you read certain scientific papers). Clearly he feels slighted, and this is purely about hell bent revenge and control. He will have his way or else. Hopefully we don't let him but he seems to be getting somewhere will the name change, and this, well, the council needs the busfare to go through with this and sort him

I read the same, 4% of CEOs are psychopaths compared to 1% in the general population. Typical traits include egocentricity & grandiose sense of self-worth, untruthfulness/insincerity, lack of empathy, failure to take responsibility for own actions.

Assuming it's city, another question: Who owns the dome pitch when city's lease expires (assuming it's built at the KC)?
Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?

Been reading not 606 eh?
Even the city fans think the councils doing it as a way of placating Allams argument about not being able to erect the bubble pitch so he has no come back when he says he had to do Airco as there was no other alternative.
I seriously dont understand your point in all of this. You just love an argument but have no cohesion in what your saying. I never remembered you being so vociforous about anything Allam has done previously yet the council are now standing up to him and you are now questioning them. Are you on Allams side as its almost how your coming across or again do you just love arguing?
