Interesting slant on ignoring someone, replying to them and quoting their message.
As cod'ead has asked, you paid Allam back have you?
I feel sorry for some rovers fans, so little to talk about with limpdick and signing the mighty Graeme Horne they feel the need to come and comment on what is, in reality, not a big story, at £300k a season we'll be losing less than most, and it was only a one season loss, who knows what 2012 onwards will bring.

| Another loss as Lord Faulkner has already told you, first of many this.
And I don't need to answer a question I've already answered. You can keep making as much stuff up as you like about Rovers finances. What you believe to be true and the actual truth will always be completely different things.

What you wish the truth was and what the facts are will always be different things, you're just deluded, but that's nothing new.

1) Accounts show losses of £1.9m for Rovers over 6 years. Are you saying this is untrue?
2) Allam said he had made Rovers a loan of £1m. So you are saying he's waived it.
Just for clarity, like.

| Paul Cooke's tweets today: may as well #tag the whole lot with #itoldyouso
Says he asked three times to sort it out and stay but was knocked back. That he'll put his side of the story out in 2013. And other comments about the outgoing regime. Wishing FC well.
Also doing 7 marathons in 7 days for Dove House.

| Quote ="Sandra The Terrorist"I can't really understand the glee that this is being greeted with.
To me this just looks like Pearson putting a brake on a little of the euphoria that's greeted his arrival and perhaps measuring expectations down a little to allow his new team some time to bare fruits from their new systems and practices.
The two clubs positions are fundamentally different and both boards will obviously be working to get the most out of what they've got.
Pearson merely seems to be stating that it's going to take more money over a longer period of time for Hull to get to where they want to be. He's recognised that the failure of the previous board to get the team to perform to their maximum both on and off the field was down to under investment in the playing side of things. This led to a fall in attendances and merchandising.
He appears to me to be saying that as well as the financial commitments he was prepared to take on for off field matters he can now see that it's also going to take more more investment to improve things on the pitch and that he feels that if this can be achieved then attendances and merchandise sales will rise. Seems fairly reasonable to me.
This is going to take a little longer than he thought and he seems to be making a statement of intent that this is what he hopes to achieve.
Which clubs make money in Rugby League? Leeds, maybe Wigan. That's possibly about it. There's probably only the opportunity for three, maybe four clubs to actually turn a profit. Pearson wants to get into one of those positions, the objective is for the club to run as a profitable business.
The situation at Rovers is for us to not necessarily make money but to stop haemorrhaging it and become largely self sufficient.'"
Quote ="east hull FC fan"This is where a lot of your lot are getting mistaken, we have been a profitable business. What Pearson is getting at is that these profits were made on an unrealistic cost base. He wants us to be a profitable business while spending appropriately, that will take time.'"
Quote ="hullbg"Come on, since when have facts got in the way of the dobbins trolling.'"
Quote ="cod'ead"It doesn't even get in the way of Blunderside's trolling. They, like the idiots on the dark side, are still convinced that capitalising players on the balance sheet has an impact on the P&L account'"

You know I love you, but we don't take pity/comfort from Rovers fans, only ill-informed abuse and you're [uso[/u 10 pages ago. All is now a mere subtext to Paul Cooke's 2013 book anyway.

Absolutely nothing personal - I barely glanced at the quoted snippet of your post as I'd read the entire thing earlier and understood your point. I just used EHFCF's post as a convenient springboard to make a general comment.

Our lot will make stuff up about your finances as long as you do about ours. Oh hang on, your first sentence is a prediction.

With all the hatered Paul Cooke has suffered from a large section of Hull supporters, i am now beginning to wonder if it was all proper gander from the last board to slate him.How many more skeletons from the cupboard with all the lies are we going to be told about that shambolic rabble.It looks like the Cookie book could be a real intresting read afterall.

Regardless of what the old board did or didn't do, he still walked out on the club, it's fans and his team mates to join our biggest rivals and laughed at us.
He's just trying to stir up a bit of publicity before he ends his unfulfilled career at mighty Doncaster.

Not sure I'd go that far, as I very much doubt any of the three parties covered themselves with glory, and he still comes across as egocentric and loving the attention. However, I'm a woman and therefore if there's a mucky story to be revealed, I'm there.

I am not denying that, it just seems there is stll alot of unaswered questions regarding the old board on the matter, if that they did ignore his request to sort his contract with Hull out?.
