Well whats a SL club worth with no assets?

Suit yourself. Your tripe output is high enough anyway.



And, TBF, you haven't got the faintest idea what I, The Brother, or indeed anyone else knows. Which would make your post the exact same tripe you condemn.

I can tell you now that I do, and the prices discused are rediculous. It started when Adam Pearson first looked into it, and the price keeps ramping up, believe me or not, I don't care.

I tell you now that the only way FC will be sold is if one of us is fortunate to win the Euro millions and let our heart rule our heads.

totally boycott the club and its value will soon plummet

i for one would rather give all expenditure for the rest of the season i wouldve spent following hull fc and give it to hornes testimonial (personally, not via the crook howes)

the big issue is what the franchise is valued at, and that is in pace now for approximately 9 years now.

well if it was moved to somewhere like celtic crusaders then it'd be worth sod all, there are no big cities left that would follow a SL franchise club in the numbers we do. the city of hull is the biggest with 22000-23000 between them watching 2 clubs home matches for each fixture and with hulls excellent average attendance the money is flowing thru the door meaning big big profits as they keep blatantly telling us.

there is only one city of hull, thats why they came here in the 1st place

i'd challenge hetherington and co to take it to london, edinburgh, glasgow wherever and see what the bottom line is at the end of the year. she cant do that, she pi55ed 750 grand away in 6 months last time. no city supports rugby league like this city.

didn't mention moving the franchise.

which is why i said boycott

Surly the club will be cheaper to buy now in todays financial climate then say a couple of years ago ?

not necessarily, as long the fans pump the money in and turn up week in week out then its seen as a very viable proposition to any prospective buyer.

hence the reason why we should stay away and make a stance

not this season.

They have the SP money, the sponsors money etc.

gotta start sometime, true they have the money already but a boycott would gather interest and momentum and within weeks the door to hetheringtons domain will be smashed down and the revolution would be rippin thru that boardroom like a runaway truck with that lot firmly under the wheels of it

You haven't met the shareholders then.

They are about as dynamic and mobile as the average nursing home resident.

if thats the case, forget the truck, i'll ride straight over the top of em on me skateboard

Are there people out there with the cash and inclination to buy the club, if priced realistically, though?

On my experience 8 months ago yes, wether they have the relevant capital to move us forward is a different matter.

I would have to be honest and say there would be very few with real money who would get involved in RL to that degree unless a real fan of the club ... unless that club is mega sucessful which we simply do not appear to be!
as someone mentioned in another post today we are quickly becoming the NU of SL

the fans would support a proactive board just as us, the fans, are currently supporting a non proactive one. the income & turnover would follow

but why would they wish to sell something that now has no relegation, and tons of cash coming in through the doors week after week....

The biggest concern about capital would be the payoffs required to change things, ideally someone would become invoved with the SMC so we have a sa-so at that level, we'd also need to (potentially) cancel a fe contracts.

Nobody wuld get involved in RL to make money short or medium term, you'd need to be in fo the long term IMHO.

i wonder why were not? is it because the club is being held on a tight rein?? i definitely think so

how much do hitmen charge these days, being credit crunch and that we could get one cheeeeeeep

lol

knoig our luck we'd end up with "her", although Michayla Stracken could happily take me out when she was in her prime!

if you own the club lock stock and barrel why would we need to cancel contracts? you buy the franchise, you own the franchise and all that goes with it.

granted we need a fan with enuff clout but this is a viable company, the board keep telling us so. there is only one way we'd get them out and its to drive them out, start the rumblings and make enuff noise and believe me people will come out the woodwork to take over. it may take a couple of years but i'd take another couple of years of on field crap backed up by another dollop of off field propaganda bollox by them to get them driven out of our city.

But i could see the bigger picture even defeating huddersfield and Bradford we was still average at best just both f them on the day was a lot worse than us, Leeds or saints would have put 50 points on both teams, our board with the appoitment of the coach are taking us backwards on the pitch, yet we still turn up every week home and away in vast numbers to watch p1ss poor rugby
