Adam it may have escaped your attention that its a friendly,our 1st run out of the season and we have also stated we will play the full squad,whereas you will no doubt play your best squad.
The dentist wilf has hit the nail on the head,ticket sales must be below expectations.Neil hudgell says he feels we have a squad to break in to the top 5,if we stay clear of injuries he may be right,unlike some clown last season whose team was going to be top 2. The next thing he will be threatening to smash donny and bradford.
Think about your last real match adam, how many trombones led the big parade ??

The irony is that supposedly it's HKR's cup final according to you lot and that starts at the top with hudgell and his 'small man mentality'. Roles reversed it seems folks, pass sales down no big signings but hey, we beat rovers in pre season. Laughable!

Great! We won before a ball is kicked. So if Rovers do win, that will be 1-1 going in to the SL season

There's some dumb s on here again. It's to sell tickets.

In a nutshell. Tickets sales to date show a complete lack of interest in this fixture. Pearson's words have placed more focus on this game in just this moring than anything has done in the last month or so.

Dont do friendlies but will be going to the Fev game for Stilts next week. The derby games are being milked way too much now by the clubs, with 3 competitive games during the season and the possibility of more with cup and playoffs.

Thats fantastic news sheldon,thanks for giving us the benefit of your vast knowledge or did you have some inside info.

Only one dumb simpleton making silly comments this morning and that's Pearson! You have got to be a bigger idiot if you go out and by a ticket because of his war cry.

the guys a marketing genius, sales have just hit 18,500 after his
Churchillian speech

Here you go les.

I've just read Pearson comments This morning!
I read it as he obviously wants a few people in the doors at weekend, and mostly wants to reverse this trend of what's seemed like apathy even in league games regarding derbies from hulls side, starting as of now.
I was smiling as I read it then come on here and well I'm amazed at how much normally sensible posters have descended to hull daily mail comment's standard!

Maybe so but if it was reversed and Hudgell came out with that the forum would be full of "Small club mentality", "Cup final" etc.

So?

If it gets more people through the turnstiles who cares.

Nice to see Pearsons really wound a few people up this morning.

I still think we only see about 7k this sunday as the weather forecast will put a lot off.

Do you really think people are going to decide to go to a game on the back of some bluster from our chairman?

People will have already decided if they are going and those who are unsure will decide on Sat/Sun, for me all he has done is give Rovers supporters more ammunition to throw back at us.
