Well as for Grix some on here have sympathy some as usual don't have any. What a surprise!

But, that's a rather wide spectrum of thoughts in the YP and something I think would have been better said at the end of the season. Imagine what we are likely to see on Saturday, after that has been digested by our disenfranchised and demotivated players as they munch through their Dietary McDonalds this lunchtime.

Not the best motivation I'd say. However when you look deeper then for a bloke who wants to stay at the club next season, its a rather damning appraisal of where we are as a team and indeed where the organisation is overall. For me in those circumstances, for him to say that is not sour grapes or a defence mechanism its just an indication of his frustration and that stuff that influences the product on the field, is beyond his control as coach.

And, something that perhaps indicates that the organisation is rotten throughout there are issues at board level downwards and those issues are far bigger than just sorting out a few seasoned professionals and a couple of aging super stars for next season. How the hell did we get to this parlous situation. I know some will now paint a happy happy face on it all and say stop being such a doom merchant Wilf, and of course I'd like to think that the silence of Myler and Pearson are the harbingers of big positive changes to come, that are still under wraps; we had better prayer they do come too, but what if they don't come, is there then any way back?

As for Grix I have some sympathy for him at present he is putting on a brave face but I wonder if he will walk at the end of the campaign anyway or even be pushed, for comments like those, even if they are true, will be looked on as 'unhelpful' upstairs and will be remembered.

I just think his comments to the press sometimes are wrong. Last week Barron And Martin mentioned in the pre match presser because of potential NRL enquiries. Grix then says they may reach potential but they're no where near it now and both still make a lot of errors. Come to the game both players have shockers. And I'm not surprised.

Grix has hammered Balmforth this year weekly in the pressers and then make very very dubious selection calls. I am not a coach but scratch my head at some of the selections as of late.

A major major boo boo was not replacing Reynolds. Massive loss he's turned out to be. Cust hasn't played a game for Salford since coming back from injury. I question why we didn't push to get him for the rest of the season

What are the things Grix is on about that are going on that fans are not seeing?

Overall I don't see how Grix can stay after his comments. I just can't. Its cone across massively like he does not care, which will rub off into the players

What is the positive news that Myler and Pearson and staying quiet for? As I think fans need something positive after this season

Myler-Ellis would be a very different power dynamic!

Ellis wouldn’t complain about being given poop - he just wouldn’t take it in the first place. Myler needed someone to take poop, not a leader. I think that interview is Grix realising he’s sacrificing more than he bargained for, and he’s kinda trapped. Walking and spilling the beans at this point would damage his reputation even more, but it’s tough to stay completely quiet while your career aspirations go down the gurgler.

not FC related, but Davey has come ou tonight saying he wants to build a new stadium for the Giants, would be interesting how much a smaller capacity ground would cost, anything over a 10k capacity would be surprising!

If the walton street sports village gets the nod, it may give us an idea of costs!

Ken Davy deserves the upmost credit for the work and money he puts into that club, struggle to see how they’d be able to afford to build it besides his own pockets.

he is making sure the Giants survive after his time is over i would assume

Who's got more money, Davey or Thirkell?

Andrew Thirkill approx £180m
Ken Davy £85m

Not sure how much Davy is worth but Thirkill is 160m apparently

Oooo we might get a stadium too then

Dan Tomlinson touches on the investment in the latest House of league podcast. Essentially says things are moving. Stay patient, it's on the way.

He did say he's "got to stay quiet, for now"

I thought davy was worth a lot more than that. I think k he sold one company y for a 2edge then set up another and that's now worth even more

Just going off this report in to Yorkshire's Rich List

AJ Towse was linked with us once upon a time, John Davidson saying Leigh have signed him for next year.

With Martin and Barron on the books I didn't get us going after another young winger

My bad. I had thought I'd read something a while backmsaying £100m + but clearly he's a pauper

NH and gang making a fortune again from a event at CP, so he can continue to invest at Rovers. Criminal whoever runs the MK stadium, that they don't get this type of events which would help both clubs.

Got to say fair play to them Coldplay are an A list act, it's quite stunning they are playing a 20k capacity ground on the coast ahead of many other venues.

What about the other investor alongside Thirkill how much is he worth? Surely we should be looking at a new stadium 12/14k like Warrington, then investors will get more back on investments than they do now.

Name names

Think it’s more likely Grudgell is clawing back the money he’s put in to keep the Dobbins going over the years.

A couple of individuals have the mortgage for Caravan Park, not the club itself, so that’s where the income goes. The rugby club will still be reporting big losses.

Whatever, it’s still a dump.

Not sure how true but heard Kirkham from DFS is one with Thirkill, probably a load of rubbish

Guaranteed sales all year round then if true!

There is no mortgage, but you keep telling yourself there is if it helps you sleep at night.

I think some should stop obsessing with the Dobbins and what they are doing. For the decades they have been in the doldrums like we are now they obsessed constantly on here about us and what dicks they all looked doing it.

As for Kirkham he has been around a while on the rumour mill and my pal having had a couple of beers asked Adam outright a couple of weeks ago in the lounge and he wouldn't comment. Loads of names being bandied around. However, as far as I know Dan doesn't know anything more than he's been assured it's ongoing and likely happening, but the secrecy is tight as a drum about whose involved and despite what some say on here that secrecy extends completely to the nature of the deal Takeover/investment/partnership so we just have to wait and see. I expect though it would be useful for all concerned to announce the outcome before the conclusion of the IMG submissions.

I guess the next milestone on this ongoing saga is the end of the season let's hope next week is interesting.

Normally you’d think something so random and so left field they’d have to be something in it as nobody would just make it up. I’m convinced though that with Hull there’s people that just try and make up the most ridiculous rumours and get a kick out of seeing how far they get, and it’s usually pretty far.

Somethings going to happen on the investment front soon I’m sure, I’m not convinced it will be what everyone is now expecting or hoping for, I’d maybe just wait and see if what’s announced and if that sheds any light on the situation. Pearson said himself the people who you deal with in these situations don’t always like to have their names splashed about in the public domain. There’s obviously a will to keep things quiet at the minute as everyone’s pretty tight lipped, no journos have really gone public with anything since the initial Myler appointment.
