| Don't understand the 3 year season pass, the fanbase are usually quite loyal when it comes to renewing passes, regardless of onfield performance. If that money is needed for next season, then is AP creating a funding shortfall for 2026 and 2027? Or is the hope that by then an investor will have bought us out?

| Maybe the 3 year pass isn't a harbinger of immenient demise or some dastardly scheme to rob us all, perhaps its a realisation that a lot of people are only another bad season from walking away and it's just a way to tempt a few to commit.
I don't think it'll get huge take up tbh largely because its a big outlay.

That was my first thought. It’s great for the club if people want to commit 3 years and it’s absolutely no risk to them to offer it. If they were that desperate to generate cash to pay the bills or whatever I’d imagine theres better ways.

| Need to learn some lessons from other clubs, after this season no ticket prices should go up. The club is so out if touch with the fans, thought this might change with Myler, but this hasn't been seen yet. Hope the fans forum is an honest event, but I don't it will be.
I think we need a new CEO, one that connect with the fans. Pearson isn't that man, too many false promises.

Completely agree it's great if people want to commit for three years and show a belief in the club, as some of us feed direct debits monthly and with the caveat of potential personal disasters will do so till the day we die, we owe that to the club that has been part of our lives since we could first walk. Not everyone's like that but well done to anyone who takes this offer up. It's sold to us as an advantage to fan's as we take it out and it is I guess an inflation busting offer, in a period when it looks like everything else in our lives will be going up. From that point of view I agree and welcome it.
However, I guess I understand the caution too. Many followers of sport across the board have seen it all before and I think it's worth considering that many, many clubs in different sports have used this tactic to accrue much needed income at a time of strain on their business. If the business and the team improve its worth it and a calculated risk to get over the hump, but its hardly a way to guard against unforeseen problems at the Club in the future, particularly with a long long way back for the team, a new Stadium lease imminent, a diminishing of central funding and harder economic times for our sponsors. All those things could impact on the clubs trading account. If we knew there was investment going forward and indeed we aren't short of cash, all that concern would melt away. Winter is a hard period for clubs and right back to Kath's days I know we have at time borrowed or used Directors 'reserves' to get through the period without any games.
Lastly though I also worry about the fact that we still hear nothing about that investment/ownership etc going forward that vacuum whilst it exists will always make folks wary of any such 'get rich quick' schemes at the club and not see them for what they likely are, just the club trying to engage fans and give them an incentive to support Hull FC going forward. As I always say until we know the position of the club financially going forward we can only guess, speculate and as is always the case on here, with some, wring our hands and doom monger!
All that said it's all pretty academic because in reality I can't see that many taking up the offer myself, but well done to those who do.

Hopefully a couple more signings, including a statement domestic signing.
