We are in dire straits. Bottom line do we rally round the club or desert like rats of a sinking ship. In honesty some have never been on the ship. Mistakes have been made across the board. But the club needs us more than ever. Yes we all moan kick the cat say that's it never again .But for most in reality we wash our jersey and go again. Rightly or wrongly I will never desert my team. We need to stick together and hopefully get threw this season. Only my opinion

More jam tomorrow. Just doesnt wash anymore. Tony Smith might be the right man for the club but its not looking that way atm. Hes taken a group of players who were bad and made them even worse, no confidence, just dire the lot of them.

Put the club up for sale Pearson and hope someone comes in

According to Dan Tomlinson a couple of months ago, we aren't at full cap but at the top end of our budget

He says in the interview we spend the £2.1m year in year out. So either Hull Live have got it wrong or he's lying.

There it is, the rash statement written/spoken not long after another embarrassing defeat. No actual apology, no communication to the fans, just a load of emotional drivel to try and get us to ‘stick at it’ for a little bit longer. What a load of rubbish, its borderline insulting how he thinks he can continue to come out with this. Creating more questions than answers with the ‘last appointment’ comment. Yet another example of the lack of clarity we get from him and the club.

I have been a doubter of Pearson for a while now but I am truly at the end of the line with him. He can walk and take the DJ with him elsewhere.

Re: Pearson : Sat Apr 15, 2023 10:53 am  

Pearson stating today in to Reach PLC that the club spends the full cap, only a short time ago Daniel Tomlinson Hull FC reporter stated that Hull FC don’t spend full cap.
Is Adam Pearson lying to the fans?
He seems a broken man, but will the fans do as they have done for many seasons and swallow the “jam tomorrow” speech.
The Club have no one investing money into it, the stadium lease is creeping towards the end with no talks taking place yet as Wilf alluded to but yet again Adam Pearson told Hull Live talks had taken place and he has regular discussions with Hull City is Adam Pearson lying again.

The club will go no where if Pearson keeps at the helm he is not an stute businessman, the club have no financial investors the full squad and coaching set up needs replacing but there is no money to finance those changes.

Pearson needs to put the club up for sale and walk away.

Re: Pearson : Sat Apr 15, 2023 11:03 am  

As others have said it's more of the same from Pearson. Tugging at the heartstrings, playing on emotion and jam tomorrow. He's basically crossing his fingers that we don't go down and if we do, it appears he'll be off. Time to do the decent thing Adam. Put the club up for sale and let's see what's really out there. You've had your time.

The problems at this club start at the very top. Years of mismanagement, clueless appointments, disengagement with the fans, a seeming lack of interest in bringing anyone else in to help run the club and lack of investment and this is how we've become and all that is down to the owner - Pearson. He the cancer who lets mediocrity reign. People talk about how bad things where under Hetherington but all weve got to show under Pearsons stewardship is one more CC win - you could argue we signed better players, better coaches and had better attendances under Hethrington, we certainly played much better rugby.

And now look across the river - for years they was run poorly but they've brought in new faces, new ideas, new investment and look at the them - they're on the ascendancy and could actually challenge the top 4 now and perhaps even win something. We could seriously look at there business model and learn a few things

Now i know theres supposed to be no new money lurking or is there? Rumours abound that Pearsons turning investment down when the clubs in crisis both on the pitch and financially - potential suicide?

And now i can only see the fans walk away in there droves with not one extra ticket being sold for the rest of the year and lots of season ticket holders saying never again. I know the clubs apologists will say without the supporters and their money there is no club but the club (owner) has took the absolute p155 for many years with the jam tomorrow and now we reach a perfect storm and all of that is one mans fault - Adam Pearson!

So we should look at Rovers Business Model? They have a ground with 1 1/2 decent stands; joint 3rd after 9 games - however they don’t hand out trophies in April and haven’t done in East Hull in 38 years.
We play in a 25,000 all seater stadium whose facilities are still a light year of Rovers. We have won 4 Challenge Cup since Rovers won their only one. We have a bigger fan base, get bigger crowds.
Hull will have a tough season, we’ve made contract mistakes which will be resolved this year. Rovers fans will enjoy their season, they have improved, but come from a low base.

I’ve watched Hull since the mid-70’s. Things ebb and flow. I’m not going worry about what Rovers are doing.

Or perhaps a decent bloke who is prone to rather rash statements in the heat of the moment was just giving an interview to the press about 30 minutes after our defeat at Leeds when he was as raw emotionally, as the rest of us!!!

I agree about the track record for rash statements, but the sacking comment makes zero sense. He's the chairman and owner - who is going to sack him?

I think he meant the fans push him to go, but he didn't make his point very well. And also it doesn't happen, how many years of protests did it take for the Allan's to leave City!
