Captain Pugwash's obsession with all things Pearson is hilarious.

I strongly suggest you brush up on your reading and comprehension skills before you make an even bigger idiot of yourself. Which would be some feat TBH.

What bit do you think I got wrong?

here's a guess, "all of it"

Why is that then?

Because, as Jake the Peg has already pointed out, Pearson said the club need to be getting [utowards[/u that figure. Not that they have to reach that figure.

You indicate that Hull NEEDED a figure of 14500 to balance the books.

The article states Hulls attendances peaks at 14500. Something the club needs to head towards.

You also quote a figure of 8290 (or thereabouts) v a figure of 14500. The figure of 8290 is passes already sold. The figure of 14500 was an average for the season (season passes of around 8000 plus pay on the day fans).

Basically, your point had more holes than a packet of polo's

I don't think I need to add anything more, why not go on your own forum so your own fans can mock you as well??

#'arvinalaughatthelackofinvestment

Hasnt been updated for a few weeks so I imagine it'll be somewhere between 8500-9000 by now. Not bad going.

Your club promised a 14000 capacity stadium by 2010

You NEED 10000 per game

And if the new stand is not ready for the world cup as promised, Will the RFL take the games off you like Whitehaven?

You are either a bit of a dimwit or just can't understand something quite clear, even the quote you use spells it out.

Pearson is referring to the amount of investment he has put into the club such as training facilities, youth set up, sport science and all other areas that he stated had been massively under invested previously. It is this he is referring to in the interview as that is what he would need to recoup this investment. He also spoken about this a few times and been open and honest about the club financially and clearly stated the club doesnt need this to stay a float which seems to be your insinuation/slant on the subject.

He has also stated in other interviews that he will continue to invest in the club where it is needed and it is this that means the club will make losses in the immediate future as he has increased the cost base of the club. He also stated clearly this is something he has budgeted for and will not put this club in financial difficulty.

I suggest you worry more about the state of your club and I think it has more to worry about than AP does.

I'd rather have a guy like AP running the club who has vast experience running sports club on a sound financial footing and turning clubs round that were in a financial mess.

I think it's safe to say the troll is back under his bridge, he certainly won't be at work, or, evidently, school.

I think other posters have pointed that out in abundant detail.

Now, if you're done having your backside handed to you on a plate...?

I thought during the last season under the hetheringtons they just broke even with gates of nearly 14,000.

So if Adam Pearson has improved staffing and facilities. I would say 14,500 is about right.

Odd, we bought Westerman with one years profits, about £150k from a season of gates at 12k........

Hows the chicken? is he banned?

Hear lay the real problem. You thought!!!

its getting like GROUNDHOG DAY with you, our failure to sign 6 England knights must be next on your adgenda

You aren't capable of thought, you're just capable of being irritating, I suggest you change your username to "Thrush", works on so many levels.

I am right until proven wrong.

Ah - we can add 'debate' to the long list of things you don't understand. Although I imagine you're pretty expert at mass debating.

he's helping Easty with Welham.....

This is just too easy.

I should come on here more often.

Thanks Kosh although I may have to send you a bill for a new monitor and keyboard after spitting my coffee out all over them after reading your post, class.

Why don't you bring him an apple whilst your at it.
