Not sure either way but I feel for Rule a bit. Bit of a shock having worked for the old board for 4 years, content to plod along and suddenly being on the hook for 16k crowds, squad restructure, silverware and new facilities.  |

HIs salary will not be needed. BUt I think a lot would depend on AP becoming CEO, which he cannot at the moment, due to city |

The RFL have a regulation saying that a club has to have a separate Chairman and CEO as well. Or at least they used to. Which would mean that AP couldn't fill both roles on a permanent basis regardless of his connections with City. |

Not so. Hudgell did both at Rovers and said the RFL had no issue with it when asked in an interview. |

From what I understand they have no issue with it as a temporary situation but don't allow it as a permanent arrangement. I could be wrong though. |

Not sure- 20 months is longer than the average CEO tenure at Rovers, so certainly not temporary in that context.  |

Not sure I buy into the theory that his eyes were all over on curtain questions, he seemed like that throughout.
The key things for me were
Point 5 was the most interesting for me, does he mean we have not been spending the full cap or is it that we have not been exploiting loopholes like other clubs?

Totally agree. I've also been very cautious about getting carried away but listening to AP in that interview is nothing short of inspiring. It is impossible to not be 100% positive about everything on and off the pitch.
It is very easy to think that we will win something under AP very soon.
I am more positive than I have been for a very long time.

Not read the thread but just watched the interview. After the last 10 years, simply being able to watch the owner of Hull FC talking frankly about all aspects of the club and clearly showing some real ambition gives a mixture of relief and excitement for me. As a fan I'm looking forward to the coming seasons with renewed optimism. I believe Pearson understands exactly what is needed to take the club forward and will act to ensure this happens. Already looking forward to next year and looking forward to seeing the season pass offers appear. Bring it on.
