I was a little taken aback when I got a text at 07:00 in the morning whilst preparing to go down to breakfast in Wales and I have had time to think about it. If this is just Adam Pearson acting on his own and I think it is then this can be very good news. I know he has always enjoyed watching FC and stopped going when certain parties at the club made it difficult for him. This move does nothing to assist Mr Allams KC bid as I do not believe for one minute that he is prepared to pay anything like the going rate to a council wary of him and his actions.

I think we have to be 100% supportive and patient, things rarely change for the better quickly and I know we have had a lean time in recent years but success is still a little way away yet. I am pleased to see that the many of the top executive side of the operation are staying, James Rule has been a good performer for the club and despite what some people might think worth hanging onto. The transition has been quick and painless thus far, I do feel that Rich Agar may well be feeling exposed now and we may yet see a face from our past return in some capacity. I for one would welcome the change if it be for a few weeks or a longer period.

Good luck to Adam he will I am confident take the club that tiny step we need to take us to the level we had just 5/6 six years ago and then onwards to greater glory.

Yes, because Tansey was a massive boost, wasn't he.

We've done L**ds a favour a number of times by taking their dead wood on, I agree.

If you wish. You're hardly doing your argument any favours when your being so childish.

With the exception of McShane non of them were players Leeds seem to value though.

And Raynor.

I think we would have preferred to keep Scruton and Tansey played 52 games for Leeds, and Leeds kept his registration to allow him to go Aus but they wanted to have him back.

It was a lucky escape for you that you didn't get Tansey back, by the look of things.

Carvell was a decent signing for us...McShane was welcome loan, that is about it..I am hoping we can now form links with other clubs and I for one am extremely glad to see the back of our links with Leeds and become independent..Kath rolling up with her rhinos reg plates was a joke tbh.
You are very welcome to Kath whom I believe is to join Gary at Leeds.

oh dear just read hdm back page adam says rich is most important man at the club wtf !!!!!!!

Carvell and Raynor (the only two of quality out of those mentioned) were both signed pre-Kath were they not?

No

Carvell was on loan at Gateshead and bomber got him after he came here along with Raynor and Lupton following later.

Kath came with the Gateshead merger

what do you expect him to say?

Fair enough - I have an awful memory for such things.

Or perhaps he meant "the coach" rather than Agar specifically? But he just happens to be in that role at the moment.

I liked Scruton when he was here on loan , I would have liked to had him here permanently.

I would not want to be described as the most important man at the club which is subsequently described as being "underperforming". Whatever you do Rich - DON'T LOSE TOMORROW!

Personally I have a lot of time for Adam Pearson, cannot think of a better person to take over our great club.

The future is bright, the future is black and white.

C'MON U HULL

I saw you in a "I love rhinos" t shirt the other day

Like has been previously been said i think Pearson means coach of which Agar is currently it but this goes against what was previously said by someone (Rule?) saying that wasnt so. Pearson will know that Agar is failing massively but will give him his chance as he should but i wouldnt be surprised if he's not already looking for someone else

you could well be right.

AP needs to realise that for the team to perform better on the field we need a few new things, starting with a quality head coach, then a top class training facility in the mould of wigans (looked quality on sky sports news), and the third is to work out how to sign and pay 17 players worth 100k+ ala Warrington!

Director of Rugby imminent, I feel. Question is, will it be this season or next?

Still not too late to salvage something of this season of he brings in an advisor if we lose tomorrow.

Never understood why anyone would be bothered by something so trivial.
