I would imagine that the combined salaries of Agar and Sharp are close to what a top class coach would earn. So in both cases it's not how much we're spending but what we're choosing to spend it on IMO.'"
Exactly.
And it's been a problem since McRae left IMO.

So you think our squad is worse than Salford's? Or Castleford's? Or even Quins?
We have a mid-table squad currently playing like bottom feeders.

Well said, we are a very cheap club. If people could only see what we spend on coaching staff compared to the rest of SL
And as for the players, if only we had spent on Dobson and all the others we "could not afford"

That's why 1 of our aussies had to make 4 changes when he back because it was cheaper for the club to make him change planes 4 times than pay for a direct flight

| Said all along this club will never reach its potential with this lot in charge
As for the coach......
Could sense this was goin to happen, wouldnt be surprised if a lot of fans voted with their feet startin with good fridays game. Fan power should take centre stage and not bother goin until this board are driven out.
The world is currently in recession and when your in a recession only the strong survive. In any other business, customers would stop using that company if it failed to deliver the goods, poor service and were deemed as econonically not viable to deal with or use. Hull FC are one of those companies but luckily for them, there are 14000 (not today!) who support and invest in them (also SL money) and keep the company afloat and keep their employees in work.
HULL FC you are one lucky company.

I share your frustration, but if it wasn't for the board's investment there wouldn't be a club. If you know anyone with a couple of million quid to invest, tell them to have a word with Kath.

The club is in debt to the tune of £1.7m, a fair slug of which will be money owed to the directors. What do you suggest we do if they want their money out?

So the RFL make all 4th round games free for passholders (home and away) and don't pay a penny?
Yeah the clubs will vote for that.

boards investment? more the fleecing the company accounts and its customers.
signing one household name each year to sell the passes and shirts is a stroke which this board of directors are pulling on its fans every year. jason smith, swain, kearney, berrigan, crocker. one problem kath, you need a dozen others to go with them and a top class coach.
ive just asked the old fella if he was interested, he said how can anyone buy those ar5eholes out when theyve overpriced the club at x amount.
vote with our feet, grind the club down in value, it may take a few years but once theyve gone theyve gone.
there will always be a club

Hull fans are too fickle for that. The minute there is a bit of success they'd start going again.
