Quote: Irregs#16 "Why didn't the club say a few weeks ago that whilst he was banned he would have some corrective surgery on a hand injury. But instead, they just wait until the week before everyone thought he was back!'"


Agreed think that's poor management and PR from the club, but to be honest think that's been poor for a few years now. Bit like Trueman, initially said they hoped he'd be back at or near the start of the season, then it was 'hopeful' after the first few rounds since then nothing other than Dan in an article saying May which will be at least 10 rounds of the season. As fans we don't ask for much from the club but far too often we are asked to step up and back the club which we do and have done yet again yet the club can't even repay its fan base by at least keeping somewhat informed as the communication is poor unless they want something.

Also looks like Tindall won't be back either.

Just when as fans we start to feel a little flicker of hope the club score an own goal to extinguish that hope.

So most likely it's only Sutcliffe and Brown back in and Ashworth, Walker and Houghton missing from the last game.

I know it might only seem like a really trivial thing but quite honestly with they way recent seasons have gone and how this season has gone so far and the way the sport is being governed/run with the inconsistency in decisions and charges I am really feeling disengaged from it all.

Quote: HU8HFC "There is zero defending Pearson at this point, in my view at least. He was happy to be a sole owner of a club in a minority sport when the going was good, his inability to build upon that and his naivety has well and truly come back to haunt him.

My greatest concern is that we are currently heading in the direction of a Bradford, you can call that exaggeration but the signs are there. No investment, no assets, no on-field results and a slowly diminishing crowd.

As said countless times on other threads, the most frustrating factor is the lack of communication. We have just been pumped by at depleted Leigh side at home (yet again) and what do we get? 'We're wearing the away kit next match, buy it now!'. I don't even consider AP as an intelligent man if you can be so oblivious to the current feelings within the lifeblood of this club.

This is a club at crisis point, whether you like it or not. And ultimately it lies with one person. I am just glad now that people are calling it out for what it is.'"


Good post. Completely agree.

I believe it’s called, return on investment.

Very to hard/difficult to argue against the points raised as they are a pretty fair summation of the situation and what a concerning number of fans are likely to be thinking.

KR got own ground now bought surrounding land promised Sewell, MKM(who wanted to invest in us) both promised contracts for building on surrounding areas if they invest which they have, James McNicholl former KR chairman Colins lad and multi millionaire ploughed 7 million into KR. All on the KR board plus more sponsors queuing up the get on board but our chairman refuses help and people joining the board and I wonder why, plus as an investor what you investing in??? we don't own anything of note.

KR got lucky by being granted a patch of land around a stadium that hadent been developed for decades. Hudgell tried and failed to sell Rovers for years before that happened.

We cant blame Pearson for lack of assets, he of course bought the club already locked into the MKM deal and theres never been the finances to build our own training ground.

The other factor that isnt directly Pearson's fault is the TV deal, had the game being managed properly we could have been in situation where the TV deal was increasing while the salary cap kept the costs down and clubs could be making a profit. Instead SKY have the game over a barrell and you'd have to be a diehard fan to throw millions at RL.
