Agree it's very level in terms of performance between the Kath and Pearson eras. I make it average place 6th under Kath (counting 2011 as still that era) and average 7th under Pearson so not a lot in it.

Pearson did get us to a 3rd final though, we sometimes forget 2013 in the dreary rain.

Wembley 2013, eh!!!
If ever the weather matched the mood of a set of supporters, it was us that afternoon. I believe the grammatical term is 'pathetic fallacy' (weather conditions describing a situation).
Flaming depressing (polite version) would be more accurate to capture how we all felt trudging around, soaking wet through, as the elusive dream remained out of our reach once more. Good things come to all who wait though



Agree with you about the Kath and Adam eras. In the end there wasn't much in it, either in terms of league placings or Cup finals reached. Highs and lows in roughly equal measures really, along with the usual Fc sense that we continue to fail to realise our true potential. Maybe that time is still to come, let's hope so

He may have wanted to walk but couldnt until he found a way to have his loans repaid and the only way out was to sell part or the whole club.
He made lots of mistakes but his heart was always in the club and he tried which is all you can ask of an owner

Jeez you been slagging the bloke of the last few years

I did say, in July - August, that none of this was Adam’s money and that he was stepping down.
I remember receiving an email from inside the Club saying everything was going to be all right.

It was from Adam himself and at that point I knew he was setting us up nicely

Wizeb will love this - I made an offer to buy a very small percentage of the Club but mine was too small a % to be considered.
Oh well alas but I think Thirkill has a bigger wedge than me that’s for sure !

Think Old Kent Road v Mayfair with hotels

Thrikhill saying to Hull live that Nigel Wood had said that Hull are only one of 3 clubs capable of crowds of 15k.

Now Nigel's maths are never that great...but I do agree we have potential there's a good few thousand who haven't been attending because games have be awful, atmosphere makes it a poor day out etc.

My plan would be to spend 2025 sorting the foundations out then maybe we do something dramatic with the season pass prices for 2026 to win people back. Or bring back the prizes for hitting certain targets that we did when Pearson first took over, holiday to Australia if we sell 10k etc etc.

In the fans forum it was also mentioned we can actually pay to have branding at the stadium but had chosen not to. But I'd assume any 'revamp' of the stadium would hinge on whatever is happening with Acun's plan for a sport village and the lease discussions.
