| My first game was in 1962 (only 6) and have been a regular follower since 1969 - I also saw all the 26 winning games in a season. I have been through the bad time (boulevard under 1000) but even though our players have been bad the effort was there for all to see. I used to go to games not to see us win but to see if we could score a try.
But the shambles that we have been over the last 2 years or so is to much for me to take - we are not a poor club but i am fed up of the cheap option - yes we sign or attempt to sign a class player every year (after all you only have to sign one to sell 1miilion pounds worth of season tickets - good deal when you also get the sky money).
but if you want a good team you have to invest in a good youth setup and an excellent coaching set up (we have signed some of the best youngsters over the last few years but have not had any good coaches to take them to the next level - with the result unfulfilled talent.)
An example we have in Richard Horne as a 16 or 17 year old a fantastic talent (in my opinion still a very good player) but with the right coaching and a halfback to learn from would have been world class.
The only way to change the situation we have is to force the board to change ( they see it as a business - I have no problem with this, but as long as you pay your money nothing will change. The only way it will change is if income starts to fall, and when this happens they will remedy the situation or sell).
The club have moved foward in so many commericial ways - community projects etc - but this will eventually become meaningless if the club declines - the club is its fan base - this is not football where fans are a necessary evil- in rugby fans are the life blood of the club.
Over the last few years I have had to make a decision on providing funds for my families education (university) and have not been able to see my club as much as /I would like - but I would always support my team in any way I could. However, enough is enough and I have now decided not to go to see this team anymore unless they sign a proper coach and proper scrum half. - I only hope that this is done soon as at the moment my passion and desire for Hull FC is on the verge of being non existant - I am starting to have no desire to watch RL at all.
If JR or any of the players, coaches read this forum please take note as I do not think I am by myself.

Only spitting though, not quite a downfall yet, one win and it will all be forgotten.

Honestly? I don't give a crap. I didn't walk away from the club during the Lloyd era and I'm not about to do so now.
You're free to do as you like of course.

| How many of us that were glad when Peter Sharp got the push are now looking back fondly on his short reign? The depressing thing is we know who'll be next in line for the hot seat should Mr. Agar meet a similar fate.

Hull Fc have won the Challenge Cup in the last few years and been to another final last year as well as a grand final.
How do you think fans of London Skolars get by?
As said, I understand your frustrations, and yes I agree Kath and Co need getting rid of but I do feel you're over reacting a tad.

There's some confusion here why support a regime that is failing, blind love is one thing but financially supporting a business that is slapping you in the face week in week out. The fans are the heart our that club.The so called board are the brains.....

A confusion I'm not used to, see at Rovers we have a very open, supportive board. Your club should get themselves one. ![Wink icon_wink.gif](images/smilies//icon_wink.gif)

| we all know we need a good coach so what are you all going to do about it - give them your money and tug your forlock and say can we have something else than 5 drives and a kick - the response would probably by but 6 drives is just daft
