The problems at this club start at the very top. Years of mismanagement, clueless appointments, disengagement with the fans, a seeming lack of interest in bringing anyone else in to help run the club and lack of investment and this is how we've become and all that is down to the owner - Pearson. He the cancer who lets mediocrity reign. People talk about how bad things where under Hetherington but all weve got to show under Pearsons stewardship is one more CC win - you could argue we signed better players, better coaches and had better attendances under Hethrington, we certainly played much better rugby.

And now look across the river - for years they was run poorly but they've brought in new faces, new ideas, new investment and look at the them - they're on the ascendancy and could actually challenge the top 4 now and perhaps even win something. We could seriously look at there business model and learn a few things

Now i know theres supposed to be no new money lurking or is there? Rumours abound that Pearsons turning investment down when the clubs in crisis both on the pitch and financially - potential suicide?

And now i can only see the fans walk away in there droves with not one extra ticket being sold for the rest of the year and lots of season ticket holders saying never again. I know the clubs apologists will say without the supporters and their money there is no club but the club (owner) has took the absolute p155 for many years with the jam tomorrow and now we reach a perfect storm and all of that is one mans fault - Adam Pearson!

He's just released a statement via the HDM

Smith, his last coaching appointment, not sure what to read into thar.

Weird phrasing that "we will stay on it until someone says 'Adam you're fired,' which trust me I would accept"

Other big statement is confirmation the club spends full salary cap year in, year out. So that puts to bed rumours we are under cap, we've just spent it badly!

You can read it as he sees Smith as a long term manager of the project, and Pearson is 58 so maybe eying up retirement...or of course he is simply fed up or out of cash and wants to go.

Coaching appointments normally only last a couple of years, so now we know that Pearson is not going to be around that long.

He’s had enough, and clearly wants out !

Or perhaps a decent bloke who is prone to rather rash statements in the heat of the moment was just giving an interview to the press about 30 minutes after our defeat at Leeds when he was as raw emotionally, as the rest of us!!!

When’s the crowdfund for the people who are taking over the club from Pearson. I see loads of people saying he’s a fraudster & they can do better so I’m looking forward to seeing it happen.

According to Dan Tomlinson a couple of months ago, we aren't at full cap but at the top end of our budget

We are in dire straits. Bottom line do we rally round the club or desert like rats of a sinking ship. In honesty some have never been on the ship. Mistakes have been made across the board. But the club needs us more than ever. Yes we all moan kick the cat say that's it never again .But for most in reality we wash our jersey and go again. Rightly or wrongly I will never desert my team. We need to stick together and hopefully get threw this season. Only my opinion
