Surely not - he was prepared to let it go for £1 last year, now he wants £6million for something that costs him money! Bizarre!
I bet he realised that the Americans had plans for the ground around the KCom and the council would work happily with them, so he changed the deal and they pulled out

Sometimes in the last few years we have thought that Hull Fc are in a mess but when you listen to the first half hour of last nights sports talk you realise we don't really know what a mess is. Thank heavens for Adam Pearson and as for poor old Steve Bruce, he must just wonder what the heck is going on!
