No, especially when you support the enemy - can only be me talking rubbish in that instance.

Until you can give viable evidence of what you claim, it’s hearsay, therefore rumour. I have not heard anything viable to AP turning down investment opportunities. He’s openly requested others to invest in FC, no one has come forward unless you can PROVE otherwise.

I don’t believe the Atroopa Pharmacy claim one bit, if Pearson did reject them I’m sure they’d have taken their bat and ball home.

Even for a SL club a 200k investment isn’t exactly huge money. It would’ve been swallowed up in the first season. Not that I’d complain at a 200k investment.

Right now Pearson needs to start thinking about easy wins. Needs to start giving us fans something positive.

There’s not much to enjoy at the minute but if they announced extensions to Balmforth, Stavely, Armstrong & Litten I’d be fairly happy that the club is tying down our best youth and has a long term plan in place.

Obviously, can’t really be handing out new contract to first teamers as they need to step up and earn it. And perception would be we’re rewarding mediocrity. Think right now, only ones I’d offer contracts too would be Savelio, Cator & Fash but moving forward the last two should be squad players who are around our 21 vying for spots when injuries/form is poor.

“You and that barometer wielding idiot Tarquin, lives the other side of the world and pontificates on all things FC. “

This is great but unexpected !

I actually bought a season pass about 5 years ago and obviously didn’t use it.
I bought my brother a season pass this year as he’s off sick from work with stage 4 cancer.
I’m over in Hull in mid June and will be paying for a seat in Corporate box at one of the games.

I also coached players that went onto play for Hull FC and also helped out on the Scholarship programme.
I was a Shareholder and was active behind the scenes at times.

I buy Merchandise most years and have it shipped over for my daughters to wear, who are big fans. and of course a tee shirt and shirt here and there for myself.

I was of course at both games in Sydney.

Not sure what else I can do apart from contribute on here as to where FC are going wrong and right when they do.

My Barometer theorem is widely respected by Coaches and players alike.

it’s a forum - if we all had the same opinions it would be beyond boring

Will you have to put '[ithe barometer[/i' into kennels when you fly over here in June?
If its coming across with you can we have a meet-up and a cud chew over a few beers?

Slight change of subject but did anyone see Rovers v Cas last night? I think , given how Cas played it’s gonnna be a straight scrap between us and Wakey now for the wooden spoon and cannot help but wonder if we should have gone with Last as our coach for a while longer - I know people wanted us to sever all ties with anything to do with Radders at the time But Cas looked well coached and resilient and a lot better than when Radders had them.

Rovers were well off and Cas looked hopeless. We made the right choice in not giving him the job

Absolutely not. To keep this on topic Pearson made the correct call in not appointing Last. Hodgson was a gamble that didn't work but Last was not the man for the job.

Fair point but it’ll be interesting to see where he gets Castleford to. Admittedly they were blunt in attack but defensively they looked a lot more determined and organised . Something went wrong behind the scenes last season I feel as that wasn’t a terrible squad but the signs of our current plight were there and we were relegation fodder after a decent start saved us in reality.

Last is a nice guy, but not what Hull needed.
We’ve finally got the right man in, after years of crying out for a proper coach.

Cas looked clueless in attack. Was a poor quality game all round.

Apologies for my rant but I just don’t understand so called supporters stating that AP should sell up. I reacted over hastily to your post saying we should get rid of 15 players immediately, just where do you think the cash comes from for that? Hope you enjoy your sabbatical and we’ve started to win a few by then

Morgan wouldn't come for the money Last is on .
