Hmmm. I’m not sure it negates it completely, but, yes, I agree that it does weaken it upon reflection.
Why do you keep saying this?

You probably should have read the entire statement, not just that word.
Also, the word "imminent" is contextual.
If you have the runs and find yourself in imminent danger of shitting your pants, then sure, it could happen any minute, maybe any second.
If the Yellowstone supervolcano were in imminent danger of erupting, it might happen in the next few thousand years.
TL;DR - Don't get hung up on a single word of a statement. Especially not when written by someone whose primary language isn't even English.

“I resign”
They shouldn’t have said anything.
I said and I stick by it, what was said was good and showed an awareness BUT they had to act on it.
Yet. Here. We. Are.

'Hope' is appropriate for Sunderland; 'imminent' is less so.

I always report the facts mate
I mean are you saying it because it was imminently, not imminent.
Or because he said ‘hope to’

They said they hoped an appointment would be imminent.
It's like me saying I hope to rattle Margot Robbie.

Correct.
