Great Post Wilf, as ever (You must have risen about 5am in order to start typing the latest epic!! )

Agree about next season. I'm also far more enthused than I have been for a number of years. We, as a club, still have an incredible amount of work to do before we can be serious challengers again, and I still think next year will be a hard grind to watch (I will be astonished if we were to win even half of our games), but for the first time in a long while we are once more giving the impression of being a serious club with a clear plan of action and people in the positions of authority who look like they have clear ideas of how to get our great club moving in an upwards direction once again.

Only time will tell how far we are going to go (it always does in the end!) but the Fc rollercoaster is open for business again! Like you say Wilf, it's a journey we are on (journey for a lifetime for most of us on here), a journey all together, a journey which may be exciting, hair-raising, with even still the odd car crash on the way, but one thing's for sure, because it's Hull Fc it won't be dull, it never is with us

I see that the website has been updated with the new squad profiles as well as the off field staff.

Looks much better than the 2024 profiles with them wearing that crap, plain off white gear.

I notice that Gareth Ellis has the job title of "Player Development Manager" also there's a Strength and Conditioning coach called John Weatherill (is he new?) . [EDIT - no he's been at the club a couple of years]

Kiran Evans is listed as an assistant physiotherapist but I believe he's now left the club.

Jon Clark just a shadowy image cos he hasn't put his webcam on working from Manly beach

Jordan Abdull should take a look at Jed Cartwrights physique and aspire to that!

Balmforth looks like he’s holding his stomach in lol

You can see those who need to add more muscle and hopefully by mid Feb those players are in their best shape
