Padded heated seats and free snacks is what I’m hearing.

And Mitchell Moses.

https://www.hullfc.com/blog/2024/11/13/ ... JjFu7DRHtw Wow, Great news

Andrew Thirkill and Somebody* Hood taking 100% ownership.
I'd post a link to the statement but the Hull site seems to be dying.

*can't recall his first name and I can't check due to aforementioned collapse of the Hull site

David Hood OBE.

Amazing news.onwards and upwards

Some cash behind them, on paper really positive news

Just read the article that David Hood’s company do private chartering with flights. That’s the Catalan transport sorted for the team then, no more RyanAir.

WOW we've all waited a long time for that and credit Adam on paper he has moved us onto a new era in 'rich' hands at least. There's certainly some money behind us now and Thirkell at the forum tonight too!

500m joint wealth. 40m for a stadium which can be offset with commercial partners. Millionaires don't just buy rugby league clubs they have to affinity to, there has to be something in it for them

What absolutely amazing news! Mainly due to getting ridding of Pearson but also because finally the club will be owned by a rugby league man. The futures bright..... The futures black n white!

Sports Village incoming!

Wow , Hopefully these two will breath life back into the club , Amazing news .

Happy days, hopefully can start building the club back up slowly.

Don't get my hopes up.

Great news!!! Surely have to be one of top 2 or 3 richest clubs in SL if that net worth is true??

I imagine one or two people who turned us down recently, might be kicking themselves now.

It's taken a while to happen but it was worth it. What fantastic news. Owners worth a combined half a billion quid.

Very exciting future ahead and who knows, our own stadium.

Thanks to Adam Pearson, he's had his critics on here but he loves the club and I doubt the Wembley wins would have happened without him.

Important question...

Are we now the Man City of Rugby League?



Honestly wasn't expecting it to be a 100% takeover and certainly not with that kind of wealth behind the owners. Best thing we could have wished for. As grateful as I am for what AP did for us, it was time for new blood at the top and a new direction.

birds eye or costello? haha

seriously though amazing news, wasnt expecting 100% takeover! thanks Adam for 2016 & 17, but time is right to sell up. Expect pass sales to have a boost too with this news.

Fantastic.
Think there has been a noticeable surge of optimism since Cartwright landed and pre season started. This has taken it up another notch now.
Still be a couple of years away from seeing massive progress in terms of league tables as the squad for next couple of years may not have much wiggle room left, but off the pitch we couldn't be in a better position now.

Interesting insight into how things have unfolded.

Wouldn't it be worth(cheaper)their while buying the KC?
I'm sure the council would consider a reasonable and fair offer. One without strings attached.

Should be a good one tonight.

Felt like the club was a mill stone around Pearsons neck in recent times. He's been ill advised, hot headed and mismanaged the club, but he did help us land 2 CC wins in his tenure.

I'm sure he'll be glad to get this over the line and move into a consultancy role with far less stress.

He certainly leaves a legacy in Hull through his time here and at City.

Immediate thing is to start spending full cap and spending it wisely, with real investment off the field which we’ve hopefully started to see with the likes of Jon Clarke coming on board to help with strength and conditioning.
