shirt sales,, are you on something ,most clubs are in the mire yours included, pearson will lose a fortune this year and so will other funding chairmen,you seem to be making a competition out of this you sick count

I agree about 2013, but, be fair, the RLWC2021 team are WAY ahead of 2013 or 2017 in advance PR, marketing, fixtures, ticketing, social media etc etc. Scarely a day goes by without posts on one or all three of the trophies up for grabs on Twitter etc , and in business communications they put up posts/announcements on LinkedIn more than once a week. It will be many months before we know if their strategy is working, but they are giving it a good shot this time.

First of all I'd just like to say thanks to Neil, after about nineteen ninety three / four, I'd really lost interest and he's the person that made me rediscover my passion for Rovers. The last sixteen years, even accounting for the downs have been a lot more fun that the preceding sixteen that's for sure!

I really can't see Neil just swanning off to Salthouse Tavern without having some sort of plan in place for the club to continue to attempt to grow, he's invested too much both personally and financially to just let all that go down the (Holderness) drain.

Some very nice and appreciated comments from the Hull fans.

That's fair comment and as you say...It will be several months before we know if the current PR marketing is working. One thing is for sure though . It can't be any worse than the previous attempts which were in my view abysmal.

please don't think Adler is indicative of FC fans, banter aside, Hudgell has given everything to KR over the years, certainly been a more reliable custodian than a certain other solicitor was. A big loss for you guys, and like you, I can see Pearson being next, you can't keep pumping money in when the sport sells it's soul for free pizza!

good post bud , 2 teams in superleague is great for the city and rl in genera,,l and would not want to any team go to the wall, more so one of ours under these circumstances

ultimately we are a rugby town, both sides of the river. I was born down Newland Ave, moved to West Hull villages, lived in Mansfield, Worcester, Birmingham, Glasgow, Manchester, Liverpool, but Hull is home. I now live within 5 minutes of Craven Park, you can take a boy out of Hull, but you can't take Hull out of the boy!

I just hope both clubs get through this, no relegation may have been the lever Hudgell wanted to make what must be a huge decision for him, nobody can ever doubt his love for KR, or think that the months ahead for all clubs are anything other than uncertain.

Hey hey - roll on December and no buyers in sight
What’s he do then ? Merger or in reality a surrendered takeover would be the only real alternative to limping on with the squad on half wages compared to Salford

I’ll call it now - Friendly take over or extinction

Can I again distance myself from this individual. An FC /KR merger makes sense, to anyone who isnt from Hull. We pull bigger crowds than Huddersfied or Salford, we may be have a river between, but we certainly stand side by side.

We’ll roll on the weekend when your lot get beat again you will go away again idiot

I'm really not for one censorship or telling MR what to do as I certainly couldn't be bothered to do what he's done and continues to do over the last few years, but how about a "Bell End's Opinion" thread where the likes of A Adler and Tarquin Fuego can indulge in their gormcloptitude all day long and this thread can just be about celebrating Hudgell's successful tenure?
