just where and what is kath and the board doing with the money us fans put into this club

1. over 8,000 season ticket season sales
2. over 1 million spent in the club shops last year as reported.
3. the second best supported club(before tonight) in superleague.

All this on top of one of the leagues biggest sponsorship deals with p&o and sky money.

so, mrs hethrington, rule and the board, what are you doing with our money we spend?

1. you have in return given us 2nd rate coaches, agar and sharp, agar was cheap, we had the perfect opportunity last may when peter sharp ws given the sack to go get a good coach from OZ, look at hudds now, a young coach who has breathed new life into that club, we get jon sharp, who if what we have read is in charge of overseaing our coaching methods from junior level upwards! god help us!

2. 2nd rate players and poor players, (coaching staff, rule and hetherington all included), as much as i hate hull kr, at least they go out and target good players, who are worth paying that little bit more for, STOP TAKING THE CHEAP OPTION NOW BEFORE ITS TOO LATE!!!

remember the old saying, YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW, if you keep on as you are, signing cast offs, producing boring predictable rugby, fans will not come, then whose money will you be counting when fans say enough is enough, no more wasting money on watching second rate rugby=no money spent on merchandise and season tickets

all the progress we have made in ticket sales, merchandise sales, corporate sales since the move to KC will be lost unless something is done

i can't imagine the marketing people at P&O being that eagar to part with more cash either (especially in a recession) when they agreed the deal they were sponsoring a CC winner who was featuring in big clashes on TV all the time

Just to add a point to the money debate, we've not sold much advertising this season. The amount of advert stands covered up is shocking!

The problem isn't how much we're spending on the squad - we spend close on the full cap. The problem is that we waste money signing and/or retaining average players on much too high a salary.

It said in the cards, we lost our souls to the Nameless One

Think I can speak for a lot of us on here.
Money we can't really afford or could have gone on something perhaps more deserving?
Spent a frigging fortune on FC this month and with Edinburgh next month too.
My choice I know.
But what do you do?
All I want is the same commitment back!






Hull FC Barnsley Branch (Well, 3of us!)

Barnsley Black 'N Whites.
The Best of Hull,

Not actually true the HKC. Hull FC do get revenue.

to be honest its been like that for most non-TV games for the last couple of years, its not just due to our form

The crowd side advertising is definitely worse than last season, even for TV games, East Stand side. I spent plenty of time looking at it last season, and looks like this season is going to be no different. :cry:

that could correspond to point 2 onmy op, is coaching staff on the salary cap?

another point, imo, whilst kath hetherington is on the hull fc board, we will never be or close to leeds on the pitch and with success!
