Sould be a announcement after the weekend, talks have being on Going for a few weeks now, or so I have been told by an insider of the club, the whole story has been blown out of proportion with hear say and panic, craven park will not be hosting the likes of York Leigh or barrow unless we draw them in the challenge cup, hudgell and crossland just don't have the cash too keep them going so a new investor will be brought in who has a lot of cash! So stop bloody panickin and cut out the ridiculous talk of championship rugby it is pathetic why would hudgell condem rovers too lower league rugby when it looked like we would never play in the top flight ever 10 years ago.

Well hello that is great to hear welcome

He wouldnt voluntary but if he cant sustain his input its a possibility.

The person with loads of cash will need also to have the business sense to carry on the drive to self financing, otherwise he will eventually do the same as Hudge & co.

've just text my mate and told him what this says said so u best not be lying!!!

I would have thought that any new investor with plenty of cash must have some sense and knowledge of self financing otherwise they would'nt have aquired their fortune in the first place.
It will certainly be interesting to see just who it might be as there were rumours plus one or two names been banded about last week in the HP bar, interesting times for sure.

Defo sounds good the ones I've heard to exciting times ahead

Surely the issue is that rovers can't be self financing so need someone who is prepared to prop the club up each year? Not an issue for a fan of the club with the cash but unlikely to be an investor who has no affinity with the club unless there is some other way of making cash out of the deal.

I doubt hudge would have come out with his statement if he didn't already have a strong indication someone would buy in

Bit like ur club hey Jake football supporter thru and thru is pearson thought it was a viable money making club hes come a bit unstuck hasnt he and when the money runs out ul be in the same position were in now

I could have predicted that you'd miss the point and come up with a bonehead comment. Fact is Hull have proven very recently that they can deliver a significant profit it they get things right on the field which is why pearson took a chance. rovers need attendances they've never achieved in their history just to break even. Do you understand things a little better now?

how do you work that one out [upeg[/u? it's well know uncle kath was cooking the books to make the club look more attractive than it actually was. as soon as pearson get's bored he will [uhang you out to dry[/u.
he is not a fan and will not afford you the luxury of propping up your little club.



the whole game is based on unsustainable finances.

And when did you last average 14,500?

With the size of investment rumoured on Twitter etc, they won't need any paying punters

Where is this ?
I cant see it.

It'll be in her own tiny mind

Right jake do u understand that your owner wanted 15,000 a game to break even to I presume to make money now unfortunately Pearson isn't going to be able to list the players as collateral like uncle kath did so jake lets see what the yearly figure comes out at FC at the year end, and also lets see how Pearson will find the 300 grand the allams were putting into the smc oh and then there is the pitch to put towards seen as u do play on it aswell so I understand perfectly it is you who is missing the point dear jake as u think that Pearson has a pit full of money well he hasn't got an endless one.

Take a breath love and look for that full stop button on your keyboard.

Firstly, Hull do not need 15k people through the gate to break even. When we were averaging 14k we were making in excess of £250k profit even with an owner who was milking the club for all it was worth. The allams don't give us £300k per year so that won't affect us and the SMC are responsible for the pitch so that won't cost us a bean. If you understood finance at all you'd realise that valuing players as assets in the balance sheet (not collateral as you put), has no effect whatsoever on the profitability of the club. Christ, even easty understands that one and he's a self confessed dimwit. Keep clutching at straws and pretending you know who the new investors are though.

I do agree that pearson doesn't have an endless pit of money but seeing as there is no such thing then it's not really any great revellation is it. Thankfully he's not bleating in the press that he's withdrawing his financial support in a few months though.

That's good for FC then jake and thankfully our owner is realising that we need more money invested to be a top side I think hudgell has done his fair share of putting money in, lets see how long Pearson is prepared to do it, are you telling me jake that when fc's accounts come out FC will have made a profit, with regards to the pitch and the allams ect all the news is wrong then Is it in the papers.

To jake the peg one question why did your board sell to Pearson

Because the cash cow had run dry, they weren't prepared to invest and were faced with a potential 7 figure tax bill

Obviously we won't be making a profit at current attendace levels. I never said we were, in fact it was you who brought Hull up because you had nothing sensible to add to my pefectly reasonable post. You need to realise how difficult it is trying to comminicate with someone who believes anything negative they hear about Hull FC and only believes the positive rumours about rovers. Are you still convinced larvin iscoming with his suitcases full of cash?

Right ok so ur cash cow had run out so it was ok for wealthy Pearson to come in and save the club from whatever yet our club try to do the same and it's turned into the biggest thing ever by certain fans on here, ur club is or was no better really than ours financially as Pearson is now finding out tbh jake a think a lot of FC fans especially the ones that come on here are scared were going to find a buyer/investor that is wealthier than Pearson.

No but sum one else is

Makes no difference to me who owns rovers. Having a ich owner isn't everything. hudds, saints, wigan, wire and salford all have very wealthy owners but it doesn't guarantee success.

Hull have significantly more potentail than rovers though due to their much larger fan base.

Anyway, this is getting dull so are you on any of those cougar dating sites? You weren't too bad looking I seem to remember in a dirty MILF next door kind of way

As a Rovers fan I find it amusing that so many of our fans are trying to find something negative about FC when its us that are in a precarious position. We shout down anyone (mostly FC fans) who say they want our club to go under and then in the next breath say we wish the same on them. I've said before I don't care how well they do as long as League is strong in Hull and the UK. Like it or not we need to find a solution to the problem and it will most likely be a consortium, which is no bad thing as even FC fans will have heard the term 'two heads are better than one'.

We should keep the faith until all hope is gone, and anyway i'm looking forward to us beating the Jolly Green Giants and then progressing in the Cup next week.

God bless to you all, even you FC fans.
