MC has been on GL for nearly 6 weeks now - and not a whisper from the club, not even to clarify what they propose to do with him (or he with them)! It's pathetic and unacceptable. The club also, obviously, needs to be planning its pre-season and recruitment. We're supposed to be operating a professional entity, with buy-in from the fans. Pah!
Of course given how football clubs these days are perceived more as businesses, this means inevitably we're less seen as supporters and more as customers...
Firstly I was not putting words in your mouth. On page 2 of this thread you said that it was "derranged" to not be furious with Nourry that Edward's had left or that Saito had left (even though he was small and you we're simultaneously furious that we had signed him in the first place for that reason) and i used Clarke Salter and Kelman as my reasons in that specific context about why we should not necessarily be furious yet. I ignored your post there because I believe I was very clear that I was addressing your bullet pointed remarks on page 2 of this thread. You went off on a tangent unrelated to that and I didn't want into a drawn out thing. I had made my point.
And as for the PR strategy with news I would say both bits can be true. The contract renewal news as an example. The Lloyd, Kolli, Morgan then Chair contract renewals were spread out for the reasons I give. Then yes at the same time it is also true that the club have an approach of also grouping significant news around big dates, the Dembele signing and Clarke Salter renewal being one example and I anticipated of this month season ticket deadline as well.
The ticket sales are up 15% under Nourry despite our horrendous home record and a cost of living crisis exacerbated by our latest incompetent government. Yet to see anyone else attempt to explain the reason for the sudden jump
Could the tickets sales possibly be up because the fans liked the coach and what he was trying to do before he was placed on gardening leave ?
Those possessed by devils, try and keep them under control a bit, can't you ?

Hull has the biggest at 7,696 square meters (104m x 74m)
So Hull have an extra 964 square meters to play in.
At the risk of going off on another one of my tangents ( ) I'd be interested to know how recent those Hull figures are.
When Allam was running them and trying to force Hull FC out of the place the rugby club played all its June fixtures away to allow the pitch to be relaid (sadly we have to do this every year) then when they got back they found he'd shortened it so much you couldn't fit a full rugby field with in-goal areas onto it. We had a couple of seasons where you had to ground the ball for a try on the artificial surface around the side of the pitch.
Hull FC very sportingly got around this by never scoring any tries.

The article is two years old. And they don't say where they got their data from.
You should probably be grateful Allam didn't think to sell one end of the ground to Sainsbury's.
The MKM wiki says:
Pitch The size of the playing surface is 114 x 74 m (125 x 81 yd)[8] and made of rye grass with a 3% additive of artificial grass.[23] This provides ample room for a FIFA-regulation football pitch of 105 x 68 m (115 x 74 yd)[8] and a standard rugby league pitch of 100 x 68 m (109 x 74 yd), plus the minimum 6 m (6.56 yd) long in-goals at each end.[8] The playing surface has an automated watering system and below-surface heating.[8]

The usual suspects getting all angry and upset on here. They are not representative of the main fanbase. Is the timing of communications really that important in the general scheme of things? Of course not. It’s still early June. Always things to moan about.

You're as tight as a hunter's trap Hidden well, what are you concealing Poker face, carved in stone Amongst friends, but all alone Why do you hide? Say something, say something, anything I've shown you everything Give me a sign Say something, say something, anything Your silence is deafening Pay me in kind

He later went on to clarify this by saying:
"Caught your hand inside a till Slammed your fingers in the door Fought with kitchen knives and skewers Dressed me up in women's clothes Messed around with gender roles Line my eyes and call me pretty"

Don't be silly. Of course we have not been going to the matches because we liked the coach, the football or his efforts to keep the club up. We have been turning up because of the boy wonder Nourry. His name is sung out by the fans around the stadium.
Nourry has done some very good things at the club , including with the Dev Squad, but this drip feeding of news and non disclosure, as well as how he has handled this scenario with MC is bad for the club and us fans.

You do know this sort of ITK post is very annoying, don't you?
So is having it implied that making a positive post about the club must somehow mean I'm either taking payment from Nourry or hated MC and therefore have an agenda.
The manager situation has been sorted and everyone needs to relax.
