Does seem incredible that the Council own the ground, have not given consent for this change, yet are unable to take action..

Re: Gategate : Fri Oct 06, 2017 5:53 am  

The Council are scared of the Allams, the SMC RENT the ground, the Council OWN it, so the SMC should have to get permission from them anyway, wether its planning permission or simply “owners consent”.

Indeed. Lots of “over our dead body” posturing about Airco and ultimately the Allams won. A succession of similar incremental activities designed to make the council look ridiculous but which presumably are not able to be challenged.

SMC say Humberdside Police have said the gate should be closed for security reasons.

Council say Humberdside Police have said the gate does not need to be closed at any time.

Who do you believe?

Perhaps, for clarity, Humberside Police should make a public statement. Then everyone will see who is telling the truth.

The council are scared of getting into another legal battle with the Allams so will bend over and take it.
This will continue till either the Allams get bored or the council get the appetite to nail them once and for all. I don't see either of these scenarios happening anytime soon.

IMO the reason the Allams are constantly fuelling the feud is they actually want rid of the Stadium Management company. I’m led to believe they’ve loaded it with debt, possibly up to £12 million, and it’s become a burden they no longer want due to it’s impact on any sale of City.

Who do you believe? It was North East Counter Terrorism Unit (NECTU). that the SMC claim said the gate was required. NECTU but Humberside Police say it isn't. Joined up government/authorities eh!
