HULL KR chairman Neil Hudgell refused to be drawn into any discussions regarding Tony Larvin's £5m potential investment into the club.

Speaking at a fans' forum last night, Hudgell said it's up to Larvin to make the next move.

Hudgell revealed the Hull-based businessman wasn't the only potential investor but would not divulge any more details.

"We need to tread carefully," Hudgell said.

"As a club we don't want to say much more than we said in the statement that was released.

"We've had discussions with other potential investors, some of which go further down the line than others. The ball is in the investor's court.

"Our fans have seen and heard quite a bit about this.

"But we like to conclude deals and then talk about them afterwards.

"The club has made our position clear and it would be disadvantageous to discuss it further. We don't want this to be a distraction to continue indefinitely."

A resolution to the potential Larvin investment is expected by January 31.

During the forum, Hudgell revealed season passes were down by 20 per cent.

That would equate to lost revenue of about £300,000.

He also said the club would review Craig Sandercock's contract around Easter time.

The KR coach is into the final year of his two-year deal and Hudgell wants to sit down with Sandercock in three months' time to review his first 18 months in charge.

    “In one of the interviews with the HDM,Tony Larvin made the statement ,that with his investment theoretically he would own the club, does this mean if there are problems with his business empire as there have been , if his assets are seized ,does this mean HKR ,who he stated that theoretically he owned would also be seized as part of his assets. this is an observation not a critisism of the investment. any investment to any club is good in these trying times.”

    “The Forum Racist appears to be upbeat at the moment. Like most people of his ilk, he is attempting to hide a deep sense of insecurity.

    I don't suppose the failure of Adam's loudly heralded 10k Challenge helped, pleading for more fans doesn't helps him either. The missing six 'Big Signings' must be a blow too.

    Many of the Gateshull (est.1998) Muppets will choose their games this season. Others will take the 'Dixter option' stay away altogether and watch their RL on Sky TV..

    “Wow! £300k down due to very low season pass sales, new backer dragging his heels and Sandercock's role under review at Easter.
    The season ain't started yet and it's already doom and gloom from the poor side of town.
    I almost feel sorry for the poor old dobbins already, absolutely wicked :-)”
