I'm not so sure, the system works fine at the KC for FC and city and did when City were in the Premiership too. Why annoy and anger a large section of sports fans by kicking out FC? I think things would just stay as they are however I would feel a little uncomfortable that FC appear to be just along for the ride.

As long as we are fairly compensated, and move into our own ground, i cant see the problem, and priory park would be great for a stadium (5 minute walk from home ) IMO the Allams (although big City supporters) wont be the messiahs, City fans think they will
Meeting arranged over KC Stadium plans New Council Leader Steve Brady has arranged a meeting with Hull City's owner Assem Allam to discuss the future of the KC Stadium.
Mr Allam and his son Ehab want to create a £100 million sports village, including a hotel, facilities for tennis, squash and gymnastics, an Olympic-size swimming pool and a multi-storey car park, at the site of the KC.
There had been deadlock between the Allams and the previous Liberal Democrats administration under leader Carl Minns, with Mr Allam accusing the council of being unreceptive.
But Cllr Brady confirmed a meeting will take place on Tuesday, May 24.
He said: "I want to look at the detailed plans and really understand what Mr Allam wants to do.
"We want to protect the interests of the council but this could also be really good for the city."

We all love Assem Mr Assem Allam Though he lives on the dark side He's a Rover's fan
Mr Allam met Hudgey to watch Rover's play he was so impressed by what Neil had to say "Sir, our board take no payment for KR their love" So he gave us a million quid and said "Your the citys top club"
Repeat chorus We all love Assem.................
Gateshull fans unhappy they said "It's not right" They rang up the sportstalk whinging all night But we know that Assem is so very fair If he moves out to Melton he'll let them play there
Repeat chorus We all love Assem......

Mr Allam met Hudgey to watch Rover's play he was so impressed by what Neil had to say "Sir, our board take no payment for KR their love" So he lent us a million quid and said "Your the citys top club" If you take a peek, you can see a tongue in cheek.

Repeat chorus We all love Assem in the East, to the rest of us he`s an altered beast.......
