[b:16wvcohs]"To play your best football you need players with enthusiasm and drive and energy." - [i:16wvcohs]Peter Sterling[/i:16wvcohs][/b:16wvcohs] [quote="Adam Pearson said not":16wvcohs][b:16wvcohs]I know there are two franchises and two clubs (in Hull) and that will remain forever more[/b:16wvcohs][/quote:16wvcohs]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_12839.png



Quote: Mr. Zucchini Head "Eventually Pearson will sack Radford, but I dread to think how bad things would have to get for him to do so. So on that basis I desperately hope Radford turns things around. Next 6 games are massive. We have to win at least 4 of them if we are to have any chance of making the 8.'"


Fair comment - pretty much how I see it.

Quote: kc nights "Did adam support two coaches at city then sacked them'"



He certainly did! Brian Little got a call from Adam after City had lost (4-0 I think) asking if he had the team in for extra training, Brian said "its a bit difficult at the moment I"m in Sheffield shopping with the Missus", gone next day!! Phil Brown went when it looked like relegation (it eventually was).
I don't believe he will carry on with Radford if we lose the next 3, it's just not in his character, the writing will be on the wall this Friday if we suffer another defeat IMHO.

What's needed is a clear out, including the owner who can feck off for me. I don't want jobs for the 'lads' on the cheap or just because we feel sorry for an ex player and feel the need to reward someone (whom have being rewarded for their loyalty previously) I don't want player power or undermining of a coach by whomever because some players don't like things because it is too hard or doesn't make 'sense'.
I want people whom can take us forward, professionals who cover all the angles, look at every aspect and players that have respect and work hard, listen and don't mickey off at any opportunity.

Yes the u19s are doing well and yes some of those lads will start to push for 1st team places at some point BUT critcally we do not have the coachng staff to transition them from kids into 'good' SL players.
And despite his 'investments' (and those investments don't just lose capital) Pearson just makes too many critical errors in judgement, costs himself money with his Mr. Hyde attitude & taking us 3 steps back for every 2 steps forward..

It's fooking depressing what a mockery we've become as a club just when I thought things were going in the right direction at the end of 2012..

What a brillant post, all we need is a multi millionaire willing to put 2/3 million of his own money into the club and the continue to put about 500k each year to keep the club going.

I said it before and ill say it again, without Pearson we not have a club or would be in the same position as Bradford, he will act if things don't improve even if that's means going bad on his Radford promise.

Pearson needs to sell up for me too. Hes a football man and totally clueless at RL and whilst Allam is a total tool too you have to ask yourself would Allams seeming hatred of FC continue if Pearson wasnt the owner?

Seb - you need to be very careful what you wish for.

And Allam doesn't hate us - we are merely an obstacle that needs removing as we are part of the barrier between him and the money, I mean, the stadium. We have become the enemy in the same way that the council have - we are stopping him getting what he needs - that would be the case whoever owns us. Allam has no regard in business for anyone other than himself - you'll be telling us he's a genuine Labour party supporter next.

Spend a bucket load of his own cash - whether wisely or not is another matter.

The last owners waited [iyears[/i before someone came along who had the wherewithal and desire to buy the club off them. What makes you think Pearson would be in a different position?

That's a shame. You've been making an unusual amount of sense lately, but this is one of the daftest things you've ever posted.

Unless, of course, you're aware of a better owner waiting in the wings to take us on?

Really?

So as one of the best supported clubs in the uk with a load of die hards who buy every bit of merchandise, every shirt that comes out you think that Pearson ploughs loads of his own money in even now? Yes maybe at first he did but i dont think he does anymore. Remember when Kath was at the helm the club made money every year and people used to complain that directors were taking dividends and not putting money back into the club. So now Pearson is in charge and we dont make money and he has to plough cash in? The only reasons i can think of this are his none stop f()()k ups with training grounds, management/coaching appointments

The reason they made money is that they never invested it back in the club, that's why the young players trained at Gordan street gym and the first team had to buy their own breakfasts.

He had made mistakes, but we need him and if he goes without a suitable replacement we would be fooker.
