A few years ago before the merger with gateshead we was a shareholders club and shane richardson said he wanted to have a share issue again so us the fans have the chance to purchase shares. However this has not being forthcoming under the present regime this is the reason we never really find out what our present fianical situation is.
In the past there was an AGM every year and everyone who had shares was invited to this meeting where the accounts were produdced for every one to see not like now were the only people that seem to know is kath and the croonies.
On the back of a challenge cup win a grand final apperance increased attendances,merchandise and coparate on the increase year after year why do they find it in them to continue to fleece us the fans because all that seems to happen is they put season passes and merchandise up to get even more money off us despite them raking it in.
If were not making money theres something wrong which just goes to prove we are run by a set of idiots who are just intrested in making money for themselves and fleecing us and proves what a bad management team we have at the helm i wish we could fing a big investor who could buy the club back for us the fans so we could invest again with a share issue.
We need somebody on the board who knows a bit about rugby league who is well respected in the game a CEO who deals with rugby issues not buissness leave that to the marketing or whoever deals with that sort of field or appoint someone to solely deal with that

Hull FC to me is first and foremost been turned into a business. Less for the fans and more to the favored paper, If hull are losing money then it is being spent in te wrong departments, year after year they make so much money, I paid 30 quid for my son (2yr) to have a shirt.
Although a club is a business, they do there best to strip us of every penny e.g. this weekends ticket prices.
