Two possible options were suggested. Are there any others?

You don't and it's not my preferred option of course. But if fans choose to deprive the club of funds needed to survive at this level because we're not playing top 4 champagne rugby, then that's the financial reality. We are where we are, which you say is skint. Generate more funds when fans are staying away = selling what you have and entering a doom loop.

You've no need to preach to me, i go and always will, blindly pouring thousdans more into the club.
I know what you mean, and think all the "familiy" here do.
Its those not on here who dont go who need something to ignite a passion and desire to go.
Sadly Ears doesnt, and from an outsider (those not following all that is churned out by the club) the view that AFP has gone to work for Leeds doesnt inspire either.
So we have another couple of options, you could become chief marketing officer or AFP could get lots of body art done including a facial tattoo of "We all 8 Leeds, I'm Hull FC for life"

I posted a few weeks ago when AP landed the Sheffield Wednesday job that the club should look to employing a CEO and with the Leeds United being full time ( and his in his preferred profession) I would have thought a RL CEO would have been a big priority. If the rumour is right about finances then it is understandable AP has promoted from within but IMO it's not ideal.
If the rumours about Koucash being involved were from a credible source, rather than social media then I am sure the local (and national) press would have picked up on it by now. And if it was AA then I reckon hull fans would have a genuine cause to worry.
Like another poster pointed out there is a definite shortage of prospective buyers queuing up to buy Super League clubs so any fan wishing AP to move on should think again, otherwise it could be Gateshead mark 2.

Quote ="Chris28"Bit harsh. Do you know her?'"
Not personally, no. But a look at her FC website of LinkedIn profile shows how qaulified she is for the CEOs position. This isn't a personal thing, just a concern that we have no real experienced directors other than AP, and he's admitted he's happy for the others to more or less run the club whilst he's at LUFC. See this thread viewtopic.php? ... 2&start=30
Quote ="knockersbumpMKII"Spot on,
Sarah McAllister was an events catering manager for 7 years (AT THE KC) before becoming a 'director' having previously worked in hotels..Barely any outside experience within her field, no suggestion of qualifications on her resume.
James Clark, glorified DJ cum Journalist (ok that's meant as a joke), he holds a degree in media, marketing & journalism and a BA Hons in digital media, a 'director' he is not however, narrow band of experience before joining FC and nothing that suggests he is qualified for the role within the size of organisation that he holds a fair portion of the reigns for.
Richard Munsen, another newbie with little experience and a very narrow employment history, he might have gone to Hull University but it appears he didn't complete a degree course??
That's your directors in a nutshell, on the cheap ever so slightly springs to mind, add in Pearson & it's hardly surprising we are not as hot as we should be in some areas and that's being polite tbh.
Measure twice, cut once as an old tailor told me, under Pearson we hardly get the measuring stick out, make a cut, go by emotion and cut again..and again..

Unless you have aspirations, then there's no point in existing. We're not as successful as some but more successful than many others.

I'd like you to point out where anyone has subjected Sarah McAllister to "abuse" if you'd be so kind.

If you can back that assertion up with any empirical evidence it would be appreciated. Also I applaud your trust. Though I prefer to rely on evidence as opposed to blind trust.

Really need to see the evidence of this.
Under Uncle Kath we did £1million through the shop, are you saying thats now £3million.
Under Uncle Kath P&O were paying £100kpa are you saying A small car dealer in York is paying £300kpa
If this was the case AFP would not bat an eye lid at 2000 fans not turning up.
So please back up your statement.

Well that's amazing well done to her I say! She is working in the shadow of a Premier League football Club which will have made things very difficult indeed. however call me suspicious but I'm with Frepney here and I would like to see your evidence because having the corporate hospitality suite closed at least twice at games this season, other areas of the West Stand cloed on game days and our obvious struggles to get a national shirt sponsor, doesn't somehow seem to bare out your 'insider information' much!
