Money from the rfl for the joint academy, increased sky funding (£400k?), transfer fee from wire for lineham and possibly one for westerman - no way can pearson bleat about cash.

The club has lost £1.5m since 2010.
The user agreement is becoming increasingly challenging.
Average gates in 2010 were 14,000, so are down around 30%with commensurate reductions in sponsorship.
Call it bleating if you like, but don't imply there's no financial difficulty here, or claim you weren't given notice of it.

All opinions from all and sundry won't affect the man who bank rolls the club. Its a reality of business and that's what it is, if you don't at least break even either you go bust or someone puts cash in and takes the hit. We've had it at Rover's for years

Are you actually a real person or just some mouthpiece of the club?

We all know whats happening with the club - its struggling and the owner seemingly wants to blame everyone from the SMC to the fans when the main responsibility lies at the owners door. He shafted the club with joke coaching teams, fell out with the SMC owner by trying to nick his sponsors then when things are starting to hit rock bottom he goes and mergers academies with our biggest forever leaching neighbour alienating yet more supporters and making sponsors leave in their droves

Pearson is an imbicile of the highest magnitude and most fans see this apart from she who tries to act so intelligent yet keeps towing the company line rather than come out against the constant ineptitude from the owner and its staff - that simply says to me you are one of the same and ive said it many times before but its fans like yourself (if you are one) that hold this club back and not the ones who choose to keep their money in their pocket

If that happens and he does leave for a fee then what we do with the cash will be a good indicator of where we are financially.

It will be a good indicator as to whether Pearson wants shot of the club and doesn't want to 'invest' a penny more than he has to until he sells up. He's clearly given up on the investing in the future of the club on a scale that actually means anything.
Right from the off he's done things by halves and now because of his own mistakes he's done with investing in the club properly.

FTFY :roll:
Since the cost of season passes has increased considerably since 2010 and we no longer offer a CC match in that pass nor do we offer free away entrance to juniors how much is the income from fans through the door 2010 year on year to 2015? Certainly not a 30% differential!
Much of the losses are down to Pearson's ineptitude but then you can't even see it nor would admit it if it slapped you in the chops!

If Manu's recent form at Penrith is carried forward to Hull he will not make it as a reserve for the first team squad. His last few games there were as a prop and totally uninspiring,having fallen out of favour as a second rower at the club.

Wow. I've had plenty to say about AP's poor choice of advisors (his choice), lack of humility, poor decisions etc. From a cash flow perspective that's in the past.

I love this club. I'm not an employee, but I am a passholder, a member of it if you like. I see the evidence of the club being overstretched financially. I want it to survive and do well, for there to be a strong club for AP to hand on when his time as custodian is over. Do I agree with everything that's being said and done? No. Do I have a choice as to whether to support the club when it's struggling? Certainly, as a fan I'd argue it's a responsibility to do so.

I won't resort to personal comments or accusations as you seem to feel are necessary. You are at liberty, clearly, to claim that withdrawing support is vital. I absolutely disagree.
