| Was in attendance at the 150 picture tonight. Addressed the fans and urged each one of us to try and pursuade 10 people to get a pass and fight against the SMC otherwise the future of our club will be at risk.

| If allam was to sell city as he is trying to do would he still remain as head of the smc. Just wondering if all these threats are only relevant as long as he's at the helm.getting fed up of a.p laying it on the fans to buy passes or were in trouble.Give us the right team with the right coach and allams threats mean nothing.

The SMC doesnt influence the results on the field,the way we play or are coached,players in and out of the club.
None of us have any love of Allam and the SMC but Adam Pearson surely must realise that he cannot blame the SMC for the state the club now finds itself in.

Right coach+right players = winning team
Winning team = good attendances

You know what bonnaire is getting at though.
Been reading this forum for so long now, I know that you and him sit on either side of the fence regarding Hull, so it wouldn't be easy for you to agree with his point which I think is valid.
A P has been bleating on about the same old thing now for far too long blaming the fans and everyone else for the state the club supposedly finds itself in.
Instead of the constant rallying calls and call to arms for fans I wish for once he could just look at himself and not be so stubborn to see the actual reason for our declining attendances.
I've not renewed my pass for this season for the first time in years due to Radford being the coach and I suspect I'm not the only one who has done that.
However due to the investment in our playing roster and the quality of player signed I'm willing to get back on the roller coaster and have got a pass once more.
This though for me is the last season if things don't improve that I place some faith back in AP.
He needs to accept that it's his choices and decisions that have cost the club fans and no one else's.

Things will no doubt change but at present it could well be a distinct possibility that it probably will be for all of us!

| How can we fight the SMC?
It's a watertight secret agreement we have with them
So unless we find out the deatil or the SMC illeagally change the agreement then we can do squat "against the SMC"

And what exactly are the SMC doing to us? There was loads of outcry about shutting the North stand, but gates this summer have showed its a perfectly reasonable business decision, we don't even need the South stand open the way gates are going. I am no fan of Allam, but by all accounts he's stayed away and stayed quiet in recent months?
Heard it all before last winter from Pearson, but despite his scaremongering the club is still here. He wouldent be spending big money on the likes of Pritchard, Manu etc if the club was about to go tits up. Sounds like another ruse to shift some passes.

| We are where we are and what's done is done. What matters now is the future. The options for us as fans and the consequences of what we choose seem pretty clear.

Perhaps he has speculated to accumulate. Are you getting a pass?

Indeed
Allam has become a thicker Farage

Perhaps you should tell the club to keep yours and insist you pay for your own.
You should match the passion you put into counting Rovers busses to wembley, ticket sales and loan players then Hull RLFC will be miles better off

It's a thread about Pearson and the decision to renew or not. Plenty of repetition on the counter side to the argument trotted out, but I note you make no mention of that.

Nope, our abysmal home performances mean I'm picking and choosing my games next season, if the team are playing well and I think it'll be entertaining I'll be there, if it's the same dross served up I'll save my cash and time, and RLFans will be saved my post match rants!
As for the spending, I can't argue with the quality of the players coming in, but the crucial part of the coaching team is still (bafflingly!) being done on the cheap. Id buy a pass tomorrow if an experienced, proven head coach was brought in.

Good stuff. Will you still be ranting on here throughout the off season or saving your time and effort? Genuine question, not a snide one.

Saving my time and effort and not posting after Sunday, the only exception being if something really big happens that may change the clubs future such as an SMC sale.

SMC is an interesting one. No inside info whatsoever but I do have doubts that things will be the same come February.

| What are the smc supposed to be doing to us then? Seems to me this all stems from pearson being underhand when he owned us and worked for the allams.
Like has been said, the playing roster is looking better next year and we should do OK but I have no faith we will with our current coach. I'll be buying my pass but will probably be the last
