Godspeed every single person involved.Hull to take legal action if they lose… so that line in the preamble about the lawyers was said more in hope than expectation. Right on cue, Hull City owner Acun Ilicali has been on BBC Radio Humberside to announce his intention to take legal action if his side fail to win promotion this afternoon. Here’s what he said:
double quotation markOur legal team says that we have to go for action, that’s for sure … so we have no doubt about it … all we want is justice … if justice is broken, nobody will enjoy football.
If this action was so big that a team is out of the play-offs, why didn’t they let them not play the semi-final, investigate and take Southampton out and put Wrexham in?
