You never go in with your best offer, but going in with a figure below the most pessimistic valuation looks like either a pi$$ take or not doing your homework properly.
Neither is a good starting point for negotiations.

You mean like discussing the terms you offered with someone who has a persona on a messageboard which they use to broadcast said terms eh!

He's been a "name in the frame" for years Baldy, and nothing has ever come of it.

Although I agree to an extent, I doubt you would find the chair of many SL clubs are in touch with the fans (Caddick, Mcmanus, Hood, the bloke at Wigan etc). The key difference is, they emply Cheif Executives who either are proven in business or rugby (or preferably both). This is where Hull FC fall behind badly.
The only think Kath has done wrongly, is not identifying the fact the Rule is not up to the job.

Thats the way i see things. I have yet to see any evidence that Mally Walker would be better for the club than Kath. This 'he loves the club' crap means nothing in the grand scheme of things and despite her faults Kath is well thought of in RL circles.
My guess is this whole subject wouldn't be surfacing had Rovers not made such a big impact in SL.

Nail, hammer, thwack!
Kath is well known amongst the RL fraternity, unfortunately she is a poor judge od character.

| I can't be d to read through 5 pages so apologies if this has already been said.
I think we need to vent our frustrations at the club in some way but we must also do this with some perspective. The simple fact is that KH and the rest aint just gunna walk - as much as some of us would like. In addition we are relatively successful off the field and have many things (as a club) going for us.
However we have had one PR disaster after another and i for one are as vexed off as the next guy with this, along with the poor player recruitment and retention, poor choice of coaches etc. This is what we should be asking the club about, asking the board to bugger off will not get anyone anywhere (i'm afraid).
I cannot for the life of me understand why any business would not want to involve it's customers!

You have completely hit the nail on the head with that one sentence. Hull FC, whatever has happened on the field of late, are a very successful business. We get good attendances, and a merchandising turnover that most clubs in Superleague can only dream of. Whether the powers that be think it or not the fans ARE being ignored. If you go into to a shop and the assistants ignore you, what do you do? Go elsewhere. Athough a lot of fans will stick it out whatever, a lot are fickle, and we have another successful Superleague club in the area vying for their attention!

I think if you read half the replys on this message board you should understand why fans are generally ignored.

Have to disagree, whether rovers are in SL or NL2, we're still underperforming massively as a club and missing a major opportunity to be challenging consistently for honours

What on Earth are you on about now? How can a discussion about the value of the club in any potential takeover be construed as 'rolling over'?
Could you be any more random?

I see you still post on here with your head up your .
I see your individual protest has had a massive effect on Hull FC, gates have actually gone up. You typify what is wrong with some fans. You criticise yet fail to offer a rational solution. You insult people for having a common sense point of view rather than a simplistic knee jerk reaction to what is essencially a poor run of playing results.

Quote ="the dim witted idiot also came out with"

So, you oh so spinefull action is not to support Hull FC, what a man you must be. You rolled over, took it (ungreased) and had yourself wiped with other shoes with your actions.
So, what do you propose? What in reality can be done, any suggestions?
No, didn't think so.
Finally, as a matter of interest, why do YOU want Kath to go? You always seemed to suggest others were sheep for not following your views, but you never post your views, just criticise.
