Listened to his interview with David Burns just after 11am this morning. Was good to have a bit of an update with things, albeit brief. Says the clubs in the city need to target the 16-21 year olds to entice them back into watching live sport. Also said it would make sense for somebody to run both Hull and City as well as the stadium so everybody is singing off the same hymn sheet, and that he would be prepared to do so, but only by fronting a consortium of backers as he couldn't afford to do it outright. Also said that Radford alongside Peter Taylor are the two managers that he has worked with who he trusts the most.

Also said we are 2-3 years off becoming the dominant force in super league... Not bad for a team still challenging for two of the three trophies available.

Never a better time for Adam and a consortium to take over Hull City and run the two clubs as well as controlling the stadium.
The way its going Hull citys attendances will soon be less than ours

The only problem is the Allams have made it such an unattractive prospect due to the carving up of the club as a whole and the ill feeling they have created all around.
The other main issue is the Allams never had any intention to sell or move the Melton and are just bleeding every last drop of life and money out the club, so until they reach the point at which the cash cow has been milked dry the will just keep strangling the club and the SMC.

And all this because they weren't gifted the Stadium or allowed to change the name of the club so now its purely vindictive actions and to stick two fingers up to the people and the City that gave Assem Allam himself refuge and enabled him to build his fortune.

Its just a pity the media are not focusing on these points and really putting pressure on the Allams to come clean after they all fawned over the Allams and bowing down and calling him doctor and every opportunity.

Interview with Adam in HDM today, would link but this site is so full of ads now that it crashes when you open HDM (which is also full of ads) [at least on my connection it does)

Adam Pearson came across really well.
The total opposite of the Allams who as you say are nasty vindictive pieces of work.
Sporting clubs are very common in Europe and do really well.
The Premier league on the other hand is just a investors game hoping to make cash.
It barely resembles sport and is becoming a day tourist industry with sanitation.

He made a lot of good points, particularly agree with his comments that SL chairmen have to do their bit in talking up the sport and not drag it down every 5mins. As he said in RU they hype every game up as being brilliant in front of a massive crowd (always suspiciously rounded up to an exact thousand...) even if it was a dead-rubber in front of 2 men and his dog.
