What? The KC was built as a community facility with cash in hand from the sale of KC share wasn't it? I don't think the council borrowed to build it.

| Were I a Rovers fan I'd be terrified of Allam getting ownership of my club. I don't believe for one instant that he has any interest at all in RL, and any move for ownership of either club would have an ulterior motive.
Have people forgotten so soon what a complete looney-tune this guy sounded like whenever he he gave an interview about his plans for the KC?

I would be worried if we didn't have Neil Hudgell & Rob Crossland in charge who I believe would only act in the best interest of Hull Kingston Rovers. If this rumour has any substance then those two people would have measures in place to make sure Hull KR are not sold down the river.

Pearson owns Hull FC and works for City. I know where his loyalties lie.
I also know who I'd prefer as an owner between Allam and Pearson.

Please don't tell me you think Allam is involved at Hull FC? I had you down as one of the more rational posters on here.

Much as I have no time for Hudgell, I agree entirely with what you say. He is very much a Rovers man, unlike Allam who I think is only looking to see what's in it for himself.

| Quote ="Beverley red"I will wait to hear from official sources, but if it is true[u I susspect that he will be making money from other develpments around the Craven park ground (his proposed sports village perhaps?)[/u What it wont mean is an influx of top players as we already spend up to the cap limit ( I think) & transfer fees are part of the cap.

I would imagine his story would be something along these lines. This is the bit for me that's a bit strange, however.
He needs the KC to mortgage against to develop the "Sporting Village" around the West Park site. Where will the funds come from for the CP Sporting Village? How much could he borrow against the lands around Caravan Park and could he even borrow against CP itself, as that isn't freehold but, like the KC, has a third party as owner?

If you were a Rovers fan you'd not be quite as down on him, realistically. While his attempts to get the KC were unrealistic and his handling of the media erratic, it was never in any way ominous for us.
Motives, meh - it's results that matter. If our interests converge, we'll be happy whatever. [uIf...[/u
It's not like Pearson is doing it for his health, and he's currently considered infallible by a good number of Hull posters.
I'll wait to say what he says, if there's anything in it - couple of whispers there might be. Mind, t'internet rumours feed themselves.

| Here is my theory allams sum were involved with fc without been noticed,it is not him building the hotel at the side of kr however involved with a lot of things happening with regards to the siemens contract, this is were the hotel comes into it, allam buys kr fc can't play at KC after next season building craven park up to be a much better stadium then Pearson hands over to Assam fc and there goes the merger in two seasons time.....
