Re: James Clark : Thu May 02, 2024 5:56 pm  
I think the majority of the comments about Clarky are both fair and positive. He has been a loyal and passionate servant of Hull F.C.
Best wishes Clarky in your future career and much happiness to you and your family.

So will the savings on James Clark's salary be going into the club or into Adam Pearson's pocket?

I think we know the answer.

Pearson has already said he'll be assuming the position short term until he's found someone to come in and take the role. There's clearly investment coming in which is allowing us to restructure, its funny as it seems to have rattled some of your unwashed mob, not sure why you care to be honest.

Commercially he did a very good job,but his recruitment strategy perhaps wasn’t.Plenty of social media folk sucking up to him after the statement was released,yet quite a few of those were happy to criticise him over the years.Plenty of double standards on show

Have to feel for him in a way. Clealy Pearson has put a lot on him especially post Covid and its clearly taken it's toll. No doubt he's made some mistakes but he's also done some fantastic work for the club.
I hope he can find a less stressful job and get to spend some more time with his family and enjoy good health.

I don't usually enter into the pointless and quite frankly obsessive stuff that goes for banter and I'll probably regret doing it now, but quite why you would ever make such a sensless baseless and juvenile post when your supposed to be the fan of a team that is obviously going places, has a great structure, progressive development programmes has great prospects for the rest of the season and who are top dogs in the City. No fervent devout Rovers fan would be bothered with their failing struggling neighbours. The next time I go on a Rovers message board will be the first! I guess Inane obsession is the only conclusion most of us can come to.

Small club mentality I'm afraid. Even when everything is positive they are still looking over the shoulder.

In a way I find it quite flattering that despite where we are they still feel threatened.

Definately not in the Cuddle Crew

Re: James Clark : Thu May 02, 2024 9:01 pm  
James Clark obviously did do a lot right with the club but Pearson's penny pinching whilst creaming cash out of the club left far to much on a man's shoulders who wasn't able to deal with it effectively - you almost feel sorry for Clark tbh.

You really are a d1ck. Did you take the time to read anything about his resignation. You’re one of the idiots who referred to him as “the dj” That was just one of the many other jobs he did when he joined, psyching up the crowd before the game.
Really don’t know why you bother.
