Interesting week for Hudgell's "Challenging for honours" era. Defeat at Odsal. Talismanic Murrell binned off. Green takes it upon himself to stand on a handy box in the changing room to announce his departure, presumably unsanctioned given the club source response. Club academies merge and, crazily, Neil has to allow the registered office of the new entity to be the KC stadium. Good lad, Adam, we know who wears the trousers in that arrangement already. Agar, a subject of ridicule on both sides of the city for 4 years, practises his best Braveheart rallying cry to Wakefield, the form team of the competition. And the best effort to mask the odour of this swirl of plopitude is not even to announce a signing early, but to put a rumour of a 12 match bannee signing out there early. My, oh my. Oh, and the filing deadline for Rovers accounts is just 2 weeks away. Busy times. Frantic, even. Did I mention David Howes or the pitch? I'll keep them warm, then.'"
And on the sunny side of the city where all is well with the world..............
Adam Pearson takes over a money pit of a club, files the clubs accounts showing a loss, a loss that should be even higher but for the fact that he instructed his accountants to include his players as assets (and we all know how much RL players are worth).
It then dawns on Adam that he has to get down on his knees and beg the Hull supporters to buy tickets and season passes, he then falls out with the Allams, who he then has to negotiate a new stadium deal with (I bet that went well).
You started the season as top two hopefuls and now you are over the moon with mid table, you are losing your best players next season and replacing them with a bunch of average SL players and one very good player in Ellis (who will win you the double on his own, so all you Hull fans think).
Hull will not make any money next year either according to Mr Pearson so he will have to dig deep again, we are lucky as we have supporters in charge that have underwritten our debts for the last few years, we all know what happens when business men get tired of losing money.
