On RH now I thought he sounded evasive when asked if he will still be in charge. Only my opinion.

Other - Joint Academy remains but no U23.

Sheens - Will be coach.

Staying full-time. Level of support will determine quality of retention/recruitment.

Life time bans for hooligans.

Great relations with Hull under Pearson but not before.

Lots of support from local business community.

It sounds like there will be a clear relationship between pass sales and cap spend.

With sponsorship on top of that as well.

All sounded very positive and couldn't really ask for more at this stage.

Funniest moment was his comment about Koukash and his fake cheque. I get the feeling there's not much respect there.

A fan questioned the decision not to play Kelly - Hudgell told him there was more to the ban than just returning late and besides the players didn't want him to play.

Kelly and Campo going will be a big burden off our wage bill.

Onwards and back upwards.

Hi, I'm a first time poster, but have followed the robins since 1972. I usually read the forum without feeling the need to reply or comment.
But after listening to Phil Lowe on RH. I feel we may all be missing a very valid point. He stated that the board only has 2 members now? If that is true. Instead of asking the fans to make financial commitment to the cause and asking the players and staff to take cuts in pay. Should Hudge not be trawling the local business community for new board members, investors and benifactors.
More people at the top with a business outlook will give a much more stable foundation to rebuild a successful club for the future.

Welcome aboard mate. Listened to both hudgell and Lowe on radio and couldn't argue with their take on events,hudgell mentioned some sponsors increasing commitment and sounding out new revenues just asked the fans for season passes and support.came across calm and focused obviously disappointed but hopeful of getting back up. He and us as fans have seen this before and hull in general sports wise has these ups and downs I'm thinking speedway ice hockey hull city.boom and bust but we seem to have the owner the coach and hopefully the spine of a squad which should do well next year..rrtr

One thing I have decided this week is that although I probably don't need to as no doubt you'll be able to pay on the gate is that I'm still definitely getting a pass for next season.

Pure MGS.

I to will be renewing my pass, even though I do work every third Sunday.
I totally respect and support Neil in the manner he has delt with everything since Saturday.What I was trying to say is he needs some help.
He sometimes comes over as "it's my trainset" you can all watch but no body else is driving. Some new money and a different view would only help.

I tweeted an idea to Hudge the other night about putting Pride Of East Hull back on the shirt.

It may make us look a little inward looking, but right now it might help galvanise local support for our club further and I think it would help sell next season's replica shirts.

Brilliant. Here's me thinking success was down to skill levels and coaching. It is in fact down to the embroidery.

But if it helps sell extra shirts next season....

One of the problems with Rovers is that we're too insular. Personally I hate the 'Pride of East Hull' strapline as it ignores all of the fans who never have or don't live there. I'm a New Bridge Road lad originally but have lived all over the country because of work (I used to do a 350 mile round trip to watch Whitehaven destroy us) and now I live in Grimsby. I think the 'Pride of the East Riding' would be better, we only took the 'Pride of East Hull' because FC were sponsored by P&O and got their ships name 'Pride of Hull' as their strapline.

I agree, it's a bit insular but it was popular and might see a few extra shirts.

Any other money spinning ideas?
