Where do we go from here ?
That was pathetic!
We look like a collection of players that don't get on !
From the start our warm up looks lacklustre and unorganised.
Huddersfield were up for it during the warm up . They were in a huddle after it .
Our lot just amble around !
The whole first team set up is amateurish and second rate .
Come on Adam , wake up !!

He was right in the end:



Wait for the timely boost or the 7 day turnaround and we'll be ok, happy clappers

It starts with hiring a competent, experienced coach and allow him to bring in his own back room staff. It then continues with Pearson hiring an experienced CEO with RL knowledge and contacts, and the hiring of scouts both here and downunder. Start to do this now and it's not too late to scrape 8th and restore some pride, And bring some optimism back for next season.

The whole sprit of the Club has gone .
We play in a Souless environment, with no roots to our traditional supporter base !!
Hull FC are now a Club paying the price for selling out !!
I was at Charleston Club like many others , pre merger when we were fighting to survive . The late great Roy Waudby addressed us before he sadly passed away , about building the Club from stratch.
We may have been better , like our noisy neighbours doing that !!
At least we would have had some passion, spirit and desire !!
Watching this team , in that moonscape of a stadium is destroying us .
Pearson has taken us backwards , first team wise and I never thought that would happen !

Spot on . Pearson is to blame for this mess for giving the job to a Pub Landlord !!

The reality here is:
1 Unless someone makes AP a big offer for the club, he's staying on as owner. So, he's staying on as owner.
2 AP won't sack Radford mid season.
3 Radford won't resign as he believes success at a club the size of ours at full cap is not losing by 30-40 points each week.

So in answer to the question 'What now?", the answer is "nothing different".

If Pearson put his hands up and admitted he knew nothing about RL , hence McRea . He clearly hasn't learnt enough in the period since . Surly he can't be taking advice from Radford regarding RL matters now . Duped .

I believe Radford will walk eventually regardless even if were not shipping in the points of 30+ . I think the pressure alone will force Radford to chuck his hand in and save Pearson the nasty job of summoning him to the Office .

Of course he is. That's how Radford got Gentle... I mean, how Radford got the job in the first place.

Pearson received some expensively bad advice from McRae. He tarred Gentle with the same brush as the duo were the senior management team and chucked the baby out with the bathwater. All encouraged by the ambitious and whispering Radford. Can he afford, literally, to correct a second, even more expensive mistake? Just my interpretation of what happened, mind.

I'd rather he was coaching FC currently instead of Radford.

Andy Hay is not setting the world alight at Fev. Paul Rowley at Leigh would be a better option.

“We will not accept a top eight finish as a barometer of supposed success at any point in the future whilst I am the owner of this club. Thats why you got the Bullet Agar...Adam Pearson wants winners...not useless gits like you. "Rugby League is a simple game played by simple people. Rugby Union is a complex game played by wankers." L.Daley 2005:



State the obvious but Radford and his coaching team need to go,bring in a experienced head coach and his own back room staff and seriously look at the playing roster as I would look at shipping out a vast majority of that mob.

I get the sentiment but paying off and recruiting a whole new staff in one go is not realistic. Why should Horne be sacked? U19s thus far are doing well. And fitness/conditioning - not sure that's a big issue.
