Now come on this is serious stuff here stop fannying about can I say that word oh well I just have

Like SirStan stated. It could be to do with what Phil Webbo already stated a couple of weeks back.

Neil might be piling on the pressure if it is starting to slip.

I don't know there is more to it than that just a horrible gut feeling going on here

Stay positive RRTR

Phil Webbo also stated it's the council and ERDF who are bankrolling it until it's been open 6 months. Why should Neil Hudgell "pile on pressure" when the council have bent over backwards to make it happen?

I have noticed that you are all over any potential bad news threads that relate to Rover but go missing on any of the bad news threads on the Hull FC forum.

Weird that.

Omg what's going on with ur avatar

Mrs Bores perfume

Aw I used to like that perfume

Seems perfectly normal from both sets of fans.

Yet you have just this evening referenced my participation in the Johnny Whiteley picturegate thread. Who started the thread about our halfback issues this week? You may be one-dimensional in your utter pre-occupation with all things Pearson, but don't tar me with your rather flaccid brush, cockle. I'm like a beacon of truth shining into the East Hull gloom.

I guess you have not read the full North stand thread.

Who knows but I'm sure somewhere it must be because you haven't signed 6 future England internationals and 2 of the best halfbacks in the league.

Will it be open for the World Cup game?

Mrs Barista is probably the best person to answer that one.
Failing that email the Hull City council. Mrs B will be able to pass on all their email addresses

Last I heard it was supposed to be, unless the breaking news is about a delay it should be ready by then.

They're afternoon kick-offs right?

Seriously, I don't think anybody is 100% on it yet, have to see what it says tomorrow. I'd like to think they'd get their finger out for that even if they won't or can't for us.

I need to be careful here but, I know Neil is fuming with the council over the delays, which has now cost the club with the delays stopping a good attendance for the Derby, resulting in lost revenue.

His main anger is in the direction of the councils officers and partners with mistakes made on planning issues around M&E and colour, down to number of toilets, as a Director of NPS I cannot go into too much detail or play the blame game, but I will say that the dalays have done no one any favours, that said the target date remains 9th September.

Daren Hale will be responding in tomorrows HDM, as I remain friends with Neil and on the projects board and on the BOD at NPS, I will be unable to make any statements around the article in the HDM, other than continued updates re progress and news from the project board.

Cheers Phil

Much appreciated

Neil Hudgell is furious with the council? Beggars belief. Perhaps the council should withdraw from underwriting the ERDF loan, and recommend that Hull Training remain at Raywell Street.

Not panicking, is he? His ingratitude seems impudently audacious otherwise.

Yeah, they probably haven't spent any money on the project yet, so that is no doubt completely feasible.

While the pulling out part is wishful thinking on her part WIH does have a point, Hudge should maybe wind his neck in, bearing in mind the club have had more help from the council than just the funding, and also are responsible for some of the delays themselves.

I should hope the council haven't spent, nor ever will need to spend, one paltry pence after all Phil's protestations. Fact is, though, that stand would not be going ahead without the council's securing of financing and organising of the relocation Hull Training, so Hudge's snap at the hand that's feeding him is a bit unpalatable, don't you think?

(The withdrawing comment was TIC, btw, by WIH)
