I would have taken Dobson, Newton, Webster, Lovegrove, Paterson & Green over some of our signings during the same period.

Vella & Galea (the good years)

Maybe we should be renamed as 'Howes FC'

Bet the whole of Super League has just done a little wee in its pants after seeing this







In Pearson/Gentle we trust!

Wouldnt have touched any barring Dobson.

Newton-Big windy get,once watched him in a derby and didnt touch ball for 10mins.

Webster-was injured all the time

Lovegrove-no better than what we have/had.

Patterson-so good,he is legging it after a yr and goes missing for ages.

Green-Not ripping up trees at Wigan is he.

Why you moaning...your not going anymore are you?

\maybe Thompson will be used as the utility and Whiting may start more games instead of coming off the bench, just a different way of looking at it, wouldn't be unhappy starting with Ellis, westerman and Whiting in the back row

The point is as opposed to our signings during this period Seymour , Lauaki , Cusack, Galea (The FC version) and the jury is still out on Holdsworth (very patchy) and Miller (too early to judge him) .

We have signed good ones in Manu,Fitz and Moa just think they have signed more good ones during the same timescale.

Welcome to Hull FC Jordan. Good luck with it.

That is a really good point sometimes sir richard's versatility has hindered him holding down a starting 2nd row spot. I can't say that I have noticed Thompson much in the games iv watched but a fella I work with who is a Cas fan really rates him and is as annoyed about losing him as he was when they lost willie Manu.

They ain't that stupid!
