People might have a moan every now and again, but if our supporters were fickle our gates would have dropped significantly over the past two years before recovering this season with our improved league position.'"
You clearly missed
We certainly know how to moan

Yet a number of top class OZ and NZ internationals have come over and flopped or at least not lived up to the reputation they came here with. They then either claim lack of settling or excuses are made for them. I think a lot of it is the big names have nothing to prove and as such don't put the effort in. The 'lesser' names have a point to prove and shine.

| Quote: Jake the Peg "Who had ever heard of richards and carmont before they came over? Hardly world class signings, plus wigan were reported to want to get rid of richards a couple of seasons back. They're both solid players but I doubt they'd be more than fringe players at most top NRL clubs.
How do you think yeaman and briscoe would go in teh wigan back line? Briscoe in particular is better quality than any of the wigan 3/4's'"
I'd heard of both of them. I never said they were world class signingsIf your argument was reversed, what difference would a 100+ goal and 20+ try a season winger make to our three-quarters?[/i
Yeaman, on his current form, wouldn't get into Wigans back line. Briscoe has the potential to be better than any of the Wigan three-quarters. If he stays at Hull I hope his potential is realised. If he went to Wigan I'm sure his potential would be realised. He'd certainly see more of the ball than he does at the moment; and in attacking positions, not being used first-up in the middle of the field.

| I think you're mistaken, people were delighted we won the derby but I don't recall anyone (except yourself, the Expro and one or two others) getting carried away that we were an excellent side all of a sudden. '" ]

| Quote: berrigans bitch "The negative views are not universal of all the posters on this board...if you notice on weeks like this when we lose and then get the predictable threads AGAR OUT it is the same posters, a lot stay away or choose not to get involved..So the views on this board are from a small minority. Do I consider them the polar opposite of the majority of FC fans, Yes!
I think the majority of fans get fed up with some performances, but most are realistic, they go to support FC, they have encountered dark times, the last 2 seasons have been dire, but this season we are in a healthy position in the league and building.My views do not change like the weather, I get fed up with some aspects like most supporters of other clubs, especially our poor performances, bit like Bradford, Catalans, KR to name but 3 have encountered at some points this season..Yes I believe Agar is capable of winning silver wear before his 2 years are up
I suppose this weeks posters can carry on with their snide remarks to supports who do not support their views!
Colleagues and I read this board at work this morning and we basically say ..What a Joke
but there are many also that post on here that are like you and I BB, the likes of those that dont follow the piper and shout agar out at the slightest issue and we do not jump in and slander everyone from the top downwards daily..
Professional sport is about ups and downs, I for one am glad that we are in the hands of a ownership that does not want to chop and change the coaching staff anymore and are willing to stand by a british coach who is as we stand heading for our first playoff match for a wee while..
well said BB although i doubt the piper and his rats will agree

So you admit that players at wigan are performing to a higher % of their ability than players at Hull, which is exactly my point. Yeaman and Briscoe have the ability to be in the starting 13 of any side in SL. The fact that they currently wouldn't be isn't down to their ability, it's down to coaching and style of play.
If richards and carmont were in our side they wouldn't look as good as they do in wigan's.

How do you think they would have gone on Friday night if they'd been playing for us instead of wigan?
Do you think richards would have scored a hat trick stood on our left wing?
Let's have a mature response instead of the usual childish ones

Quote: berrigans bitch " The majority of fans will reflect on the season and remmeber the atmopshere at the Saints game and other games which entertained them, they will go through winter and then buy their passes, they go to watch rugby and hope to win some-thing if they do then great, if they don't they will dream the dream for the following year, at the end of the day it is just a sport
On the one hand you say the majority of fans would would not like to see Agar replaced and this will be proven by the season ticket sales for next season, on the other you say that to the majority of fans it's not that important whether we win anything or not and they'll renew regardless... which is it?

cant argue with you there however I feel we have something to offer when we get the lads back on the island again !!
when we have true halves on we always look better , and Shaun Long is certainly a man for big televised matches thats for sure...
I feel we could just upset a few feathers in the play offs
