All in all, it's a pretty clear message that he doesn't rate the way the previous set up operated.

Late entry for understatement of the year.

It's becoming abundantly clear that the problems with the on-field side of the operation were even more widespread than it appeared. It's also clear, as mentioned by Wilf, that the gloves are off following the Luke Briscoe affair. Must admit that so much candour, openness, and passion is a real breath of fresh air.

A superb statement of intent and I am more excited about the future now than at any time since I started following the club in the 80's. Roll on next season.

Probably the best statement I have seen coming out of our club from a chairman in over 50 years, well I have never seen better, quite amazing really and few will be able to take it in , in one reading I had to go back, pinch myself, and read it again!!!! I some respects it woud appear that someone has maybe done something against the club (Yesterday) that has riled Mr P and now as far as the last Board is concerned the gloves are off!

“We will not accept a top eight finish as a barometer of supposed success at any point in the future whilst I am the owner of this club.

Same here Wilf, couldn't agree more, AP given an almost Churchillian type speech. The guy oozes class and is just what the club needed in that he has drive, desire and ambition for success.

Seems he is also alittle more determined to bring success to the club after Briscoegate, get the feeling he knows where the external source has come from.

Top marks Mr P

I have supported Hull for many many years and I have recently experienced some strange symptoms that I can only faintly remember from when I was a child in the 80's.

It involves a strange tingling all over my body and a light headedness which leads to an overwhelming sense of anticipation and a feeling of euphoria that seems to increase everytime that I see Mr. Pearson.

The sense of numbness and constant dull ache that I've had for a long time have gone.

The only thing I can put it down to is COMPLETE AND UTTER OPTIMISM !!

Don't know how everyone else is feeling but with everything going on at the club it's a great feeling too actually have a positive outlook on how things are going for the club instead of the doom and gloom we had with the previous bunch...

Re: In Adam we trust - beautiful words : Fri Sep 23, 2011 9:42 am  

Wow. Easily one of the best things I have ever read from anyone at the club. And I believe every word he says. Just wow.

In Adam We Trust!

Has anyone mentioned yet that AP is the man?

What a massive statement of intent....this guy is clearly passionate about the club and sport in Hull in general, the past decade with City has shown that...

Someone has clearly rattled his cage and the gloves are defintely off, but I love this....keep re-reading it. Better than the spin of the previous regime which we were continually fed. They must have thought we were all stupid.
How good is it to have hope!

Not all of us!! After a statement like that how can Rule be left in his position?? surely he must go or fall on his sword??

To be fair, Rule is just an employee. If Kath told him he had to lie to justify our endless mediocrity, that's pretty much what he had to do.
