Can't see it anywhere in the article where it states we are struggling financially! The old regime made a loss of £300,000 (1st time in 6 years). Adam Pearson is pouring money into our club for players and training, I don't see him panicking over a piffling £300,000 and I don't see too many worried FC fans having sleepless nights over this bit of accountancy. I can see HKR's crowds going down substansiably this season when the success of Justine has faded, what you gonna do then?

Which ones of us "lot" in particular? You might want to borrow Mrs B's index of quotes to provide the evidence of anyone claiming we were minted.

HULL FC ARE SAT UPON A CRUMBLING THRONE IN THIS CITY WITH THE MIGHTY ROBINS READY TO POUNCE ONCE THEY FALL, WHICH WONT BE LONG

HOW MANY MORE HITS CAN PEARSON TAKE BEFORE HE PACKS HIS BAGS AND SELLS BACK TO HETHERINGTON ?

THE ONLY THING THATS POOR AROUND HERE JACKO WACKO, IS HULL FC.

I can't really understand the glee that this is being greeted with.

To me this just looks like Pearson putting a brake on a little of the euphoria that's greeted his arrival and perhaps measuring expectations down a little to allow his new team some time to bare fruits from their new systems and practices.

The two clubs positions are fundamentally different and both boards will obviously be working to get the most out of what they've got.

Pearson merely seems to be stating that it's going to take more money over a longer period of time for Hull to get to where they want to be. He's recognised that the failure of the previous board to get the team to perform to their maximum both on and off the field was down to under investment in the playing side of things. This led to a fall in attendances and merchandising.

He appears to me to be saying that as well as the financial commitments he was prepared to take on for off field matters he can now see that it's also going to take more more investment to improve things on the pitch and that he feels that if this can be achieved then attendances and merchandise sales will rise. Seems fairly reasonable to me.

This is going to take a little longer than he thought and he seems to be making a statement of intent that this is what he hopes to achieve.

Which clubs make money in Rugby League? Leeds, maybe Wigan. That's possibly about it. There's probably only the opportunity for three, maybe four clubs to actually turn a profit. Pearson wants to get into one of those positions, the objective is for the club to run as a profitable business.

The situation at Rovers is for us to not necessarily make money but to stop haemorrhaging it and become largely self sufficient.

Gotta admit he is pincless sorry I mean (priceless)

£300k debt? something only grudghill and his gang can only dream of having!

that's about the tenth time of asking, just band the stupid fool.

caps locks which i have now switched off is not against the rules

criticising a mod and being abusive like you just have done is against the rules

Enough.

Cab Crab - you're skating on thin ice, so be careful. I don't need you to tell me how to do my job either. Neither was what Standee said criticism.
