Remind me what they have won in terms of real silverware? hubcap doesn't count. They also have an owner who will pump in millions. Empty our ground to 2/3000 and see how long we last.

It was an attempt at humour pal. Clearly I need to keep my day job.

You see, this is a variation on a well used theme. The rules are that you can't start to speculate on Rovers going bust until the season is officially over. Then, it's not "2 years" its 2 months max. You have let me down standee, a poster of your experience

Spot on.
Anyone who thinks AP will respond to fans putting less money into the club by simply shovelling more in himself ad infinitum are deluded. He puts in enough to see us up to the cap, plus transfer fees, plus paying players off, plus investing in the academy. Whilst we may not agree with all his decisions he's doing it with the best intentions. Withholding our support as part of the deal is just risking sending the club to the wall in my opinion. No one else apart from AP wants to back us so we can either galvanize behind him, his best intentions and already significant backing, or sign the club's death warrant by pi$$ing off.
Two choices. Are you in the boat with the club, rowing and baling out water, or standing like a t on the bank shouting "You're sinking" with a self-righteous smirk and an extra £0.68 a day in your pocket for the next year? Have a word.
Bit dramatic that, going for a lie down.

I don't think KR will go bust, nor will FC, too many dedicated fans throwing good money after bad and too much support from one of the worst local councils in England.
I do not expect to win either team to lift a trophy in 5 years, not with the players and coaches we have.
I genuinely hope I am wrong, for either side, because if no, then a single Hull side is a real possibility.
Abuse from Mrs B, hope that gets picked up.

Probably, never read them to be honest. It takes a lot to offend me, which is just as well considering what I have to put up with at Craven Park.

The club loses money. He owns the club. He could go for a cheaper squad but chooses not to and to fund the resultant losses. If people (to be clear, I'm generalising) want to assume he'll continue to do so forever, and shore up the increased income shortfall created by their disengagement, then they are obviously free to do so. But they need to be more realistic about the consequences IMO. In my opinion the result of increased losses will be either balancing the books through a worse squad/reduced academy investment, or the club going into administration unless a buyer can be found. Just my opinion.

I was talking to a member of staff in the shop at the Stadium when I got my pass and she said they all went out on Challenge Cup Day (23rd Aug?) and it was their postal company that had not delivered them. Sounded like Hull were unaware until people started getting in touch the day they went on sale. I got mine a couple of days after they went on sale, but downloaded the form to take in.

you know me for having a moan at the club for various things, but not sending a pass renewal form out in the post is no major issue.
Imagine these things are £2 each to print (glossy paper, staples, assembly etc.), then they pay £1.50 each to have them delivered by Royal Mail, that's £3.50 per renewal form, then they have families with 2 adult and 2 kids passes, to that's £14, for ONE page that actually needs to be completed?
If the best use of over £30,000 is renewal forms then AP is in the wrong industry, am sure a phone call to the club, saying you want to renew, would result in a form duly arriving though.
