| Quote: His Bobness "Let's get it right. The entire Rugby League world is dumbfounded by the bizarre decision to make a current player Director of Rugby.
It's now clear that the 'investor' is not Andrew Thirkill who has no intention of giving up his position as President of Leeds Rhinos. No it is his daughter Stephanie who is the investor. Clearly she is very much in love with Richie Myler and saw an opportunity to provide something after rugby for her partner.
But where is the 'investment' going? To Hull FC or to Adam Pearson?'"
Love is a powerful drug Bob, Mr Allams million, Hull college wedge, all must of been for love.let’s hope Ehab doesn’t want it back.

The need to identify the way we want to play also, with everybody pulling in the right direction together.
Sounds like whoever they appoint as coach wont just sign anyone available but someone who complements his style of rugby.

cartoons/WB17.gif I've been on the internet and have already got a sense of the fans' passion for the club. They are very fanatical - Peter Gentle 12th September 2011.
Money doesn't talk it swears, Obscenity who really cares, Propaganda all is phony.
I'm the son and heir of a shyness which is criminally vulgar.
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way.

| Obviously we don't have a name to go on here, hence why we're all speculating like mad once again!!
But if our new prospective head coach is currently in employment somewhere and we then make an announcement of his impending arrival here for next year, then would that bring a certain conflict of interest into play?
Again, we don't know if it's a domestic or overseas coaching appointment, but dependent on certain circumstances will his current club feel compromised and feel it will be in their best interests to sever ties now and move forward. Would that then alter the scenario for ourselves, in that our choice suddenly becomes available with immediate effect.
Let's face it, if the situation was reversed and we knew our head coach (or DOR) was spending half his time scouting players for his new employers, I don't think any of us would be particularly chuffed with events.
It may all depend on who he is and what his role is at his current club, but as I said, think there is potential for a conflict of interest to emerge here.
It would just be like us to find ourselves with a coach who has been placed on 'garden-leave' and he can't do anything at the moment!

| I enjoyed that interview. Its early days and I'm as sceptical as anyone as you all know but I have to say that we have heard new coaches coming in new players coming in and at one time got very regular updates from our owner but rarely have we heard 24 minutes of constructive talk which showed as much an understanding of the dynamics between the fans and the team the issues within the playing group and the need for everyone either 'shaping up or shipping out'. The idea of appointing a new Coach sooner rather than later even if he can't start till next season is a really sound one and shows a deal of joined up thinking, lets face it the last two coaches we had appointed arrived to be presented with someone else's signings and thus ideas. Its early days and this is Hull FC we are talking about so actions will speak a lot louder than words, but as good a start as we could have wished for.

| Another who thought the interview was a good watch, he identified some key issues and came across as a confident and well spoken bloke. Of course we know all too well that talk is cheap, but it’s a good start.

Spot on. I thought he was very articulate and his thoughts were the same as those of us on here. He seems to appreciate that there is a gap between club and fans and I'm sure he'll do something about it.

| I thoroughly enjoyed the interview, he was confident and positive regarding what the club need to do. I felt he already has a deep sense of the fans frustrations and is eager to find ways to connect the club with the fans again. A good start for the bloke, I wish him all the best in massive job.

| Can’t we get our new DoR to get his boots on for a few games, he can play 1, 6, 7, or 9.

| Alluded to the fact that changes were coming in 2025, and wanted people who were on board.
Talked about how they’ll add to staff if need be. All reeks of incoming investment.
Came across well and said what many have been thinking.
Onwards and upwards.

| Interesting interview and I liked a lot of what he said but saying things and achieving them are 2 completely different things. Personally I'm really hoping we get an aussie coach in but suspect it won't be. Hopefully he's trying to tempt Rowley over

| Strong interview.
Opens by asserting himself as the new Hull FC daddy. Pearson notable by his absence - I couldn’t help but wonder if he may have ‘slipped’ by a wash basin. That we now have a DOR in the game who was born 11 years after Scum was released makes me feel old. Also, being old makes me feel old. Myler though, fresh faced and doesn’t wince before answering questions. Not these questions at least. Good points about togetherness, and just the right amount of humility around listening.
This is not the Motu Tony role.
Unlike Peacock, Myler has at least got the broad diagnosis right. I’m curious to see what he prescribes.
Interesting times ahead. Much as I enjoyed the last plot line, it was played out.

Rowley is the only domestic coach I'd be wanting us to make a play for.
Hopefully we'll have the new coach wrapped up in the next 3/4 weeks.
Happy for Grix to see out this season. That was the new coach won't be tarnished by this monstrosity of a season

Personally I hope our new coach is Josh Hannay, he's been viewed as an NRL head coach in waiting for a while and Billy Slater hypes him up whenever he can for the job he does for Queensland.
