| He was told of Biggs when Briscoe wanted away. But then had a change of mind when a deal in your neck of the woods fell through. Then Bomber ferked that up! So Biggs was our option under PG. JT was defo a signing under him also agreed halfway through last season but was hush hush because of the tampering rules/dates.

At times I wish AP would keep his mouth shut but at least we have someone who talks to the fans.Yes he is a know wot where league is concerned but he is learning fast and knows the future is our youth set-up and the outsa

They gave Arundel 4 years on an incremental contract. I'd believe anything of them

| Quote: Erik the not red "A remarkably bitter post, what has he done to upset you so much? I am not a blind worshipper of AP and I do suspect he may sell up some time in the future. However to achieve that aim for a profit he needs to build a successful and sustainable club and I certainly can't find anything wrong with that from a Hull fans point of view. I would much rather have an owner who isn't a fan making decisions because they are far less likely to make emotional ones that are foolish and cause embarrassment (look at a well known ambulance chaser for a striking example). As for Gentle, his story has some ups, downs and contradictions (contract extension followed by sacking) which by no means is all sweetness and light, but would you rather Agar stayed on? The club as a whole has improved under Pearson's ownership and though there's plenty more to do at least its going in the right direction.'"
Not bitter, I just don't like the cut of the man's Jib, he's a here today gone tomorrow kind of owner, yes he needs to put money in to try to make the club successful but when (not if) he gets irons into bigger fires he'll be gone. He'll also take out what he's put in, absolutely no doubt in my mind. That is the massive difference between him & some other clubs owner's. The ambulance chaser is just an inigma all in his own right, I actually feel sorry for Rovers tbh..
As for asking if I'd have wanted Agar to stay on, I was one of the few who stated from the outset it was a massive mistake, my opinion never changed during his tenure, unlike many on here going from one field to the next as they saw fit...
It has gone in the right direction, it couldn't really go in any other direction could it though, let's be honest?

What are you on about? If he sold the club would you expect him to leave a cash lump sum as a gift?
As for here today gone tomorrow, he's been here nearly two and a half years already.

He was also throwing 10 free season passes to youth players family's as part of contracts .
Some of the stuff that's been going on was just insane

Never read such rubbish. We would be all but, finished without AP, no infrastructure, no youth and no hope.
Yes he makes mistakes but deary me!

There's been no shortage of drama, but sympathy would have been more appropriate, if no more welcome , 10 years or so ago.
Enigma suggests a mystery to me - and whatever your opinion of NH, it's generally been pretty clear what he is doing and why.
Pearson's plans are rather less obvious. From what we can see, I don't your negative view is justified. But there are some curiosities that have never been properly addressed, IMO. None of the realistic scenarios are necessarily bad for Hull FC - but that we don't know is... enigmatic.
I'm thinking about purchase price, dealing with the inherited debts, the SMC deal and the more meaningful measures of how profitable/loss-making Hull FC is and is likely to be in coming years. Tbf, I suspect those questions haven't been asked because this stuff is kind of dull. And if he AP wanted people to know, he'd have put it in the hdm already.

I've been told from people on both sides of the fence this is true and if it wasn't for the Tuimavave situation then Mika would of been a Hull player by now.
