News in the HDM today that Pearson was part of a consortium to bid for Hull City, that looks to be rejected - but still hopeful of a role with the final new owners of the Tigers.

I think it is good that the role back in football can work hand in hand with his role at FC. (might also stop the yearly re-laying of the pitch!)

It does seem to be a good idea to have a senior figure with an crossing role between Hull City and Hull FC.
