| The squad is improving and that is all we can ask for. Sure it would be great to be sat here frothing at the mouth with the prospect of Marshall, Slater etc playing at the KC next season but signings like that won't happen til we prove ourselves as a club IMO. We tried to get Chase and it hasn't come off, but not through lack of trying.
I go into next year thinking the squad is already better then it was this year and fully expect us to improve on finishing 6th. The two signings which are expected to be made will finish the jigsaw off and we should have a strong squad for next year.
I am hearing though we are in negotiations to pay Seymour off and no new signings will be made till this happens. Retaining Aspinwall and Mcgoldrick plus a new Scrum half will rely heavily on this.
Ellis, Mcgoldrick, Watts , Pitts, Crookes, Arundel , Johnson , Holdsworth and Galea were all not here at the start of the 2012 season but will be for the 2013 season. They are all good recruits and whilst some of them may not be stars yet they have the potential to be in the future. If you think of all the youngsters who have gained first team experience this season and will be squad members next season you can't deny the fact that AP and PG are improving this squad as promised. Just be patient and get behind the team, do our part in showing the worlds best this is the club to play for.

The OP has merely presented his own reasonable opinion for the purpose of stimulating debate. You don't agree? Fine, that is what a discussion board is all about. Was there really a need for the personal abuse?

Are you his mum? Do you regard typing the word IDIOT in BLOCK CAPITALS as personal abuse....lol? Read the post, it is full of conjecture and supposition. In the Agar and Hetherington tenure Hull FC were the only club in 2011 not to blood an academy player. This year we have Lineham, Bowden, Crooks, Green et al and the OP (is that forum speak for geek) attempts to create debate by making an ill informed comment about the clubs policy in bringing youngsters through because we signing proven quality players. (I am now going add an emoticon because it is trendy and hard)

You need to read the opening post again. And then offer an apology. You've completely misread it.

Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white

To say besides ellis and holdsworth is just stupid as they are the 2 biggest signings so far for 2013 by any team imo , im very happy with the capture of paul johnson , i'll be happy with mcdonnell once its anounced , crooks and arundle tbf are prospects in which only time will tell , with watts, houghton, westerman, lineham , bowden, pitts and ben crookes we have younge players that will get beter and beter every season they play . I can see we still need need a play maker with a kicking game but adam pearson has not let any of us down imo
