Huddersfield are a well drilled side and quick. Think Connor will be suspended but the back up is better. Can’t see a win for you in that game. The derby will be the big one for Smith. I think it will be 30+ if we can kick goals and then Pearson’s hand may be forced. By this point the season is over for Hull, nothing to play for meaning the run into 2025 will be difficult even with Dan Tomlinson pedalling his propaganda. You need to get rid if Smith as we have be saying.

Well drilled? …they follow the “process” that the fraud Watson spouts and as for propaganda….you lot should talk…your journalists can’t half polish a turd.Come back when you actually win something….unlike you,I have seen my team win trophies…I bet you wasn’t even a itch in your old man’s sack when you lot last won something.

Quote: His Bobness "Would you be happy with 11th,11th, 6th and 10th? Given where you are now you might be.

Rovers were not and sacked Tony Smith. You should too. In truth Tony should never have come back after his Warrington days which ended in a damp squib and years in exile followed during which he became quite out of touch.

Not a single Rovers fan would want him back.'"


Im sorry but that is a load of rubbish and you know it, everything Rovers are doing now was started by TS. Rovers fans including my wife were devastated when he left but he gave them a real healthy foundation an they ran with it, it was little over 2 seasons ago he them 1 game away from the Grand final and he along with smart owners turned the club around from a club that was on its knees to a club that is now thriving. Unfortunatley the latter point around smart owners is where we fall short, i don't for one minute doubt AP's love of the club but hes just clueless, he had a fantastic opportunity to build on a real period of success for the club and he didn't, he sacked Radford after a dire start to the season and since then its been a nosedive off a cliff. We need new owners and quick otherwise i genuinely don't know where this club goes.

Quote: The Dentist Wilf "Hi Roam Ranger great first post!!!

I guess I'm a bit biased towards Peter Gentle because I still keep in touch with him and his family. Peter Gentle knew 'I believe', that several of the staff including a senior member of the caching staff had lobbied Adam about Him and apparently he listened. Why I have no idea but Gentle had done well when you look at his record and we were in our second play off game after getting to Wembley plus most of us who were there watching that game, had never ever seen anything that mirrored more a game being thrown than that one. This guy hasn't got us near a play off game or Wembley but I see the similarities as it almost looks as if Smith tells them one thing and they do the opposite.'"


I always liked Gentle. I was so disappointed with how his tenure ended because I felt that we were on the right track with him. He seemed to have a plan in mind for every game based on who we were playing. It didn't always work but when does it with us? I always felt he was a smart coach.

If Smith and the rest went,Who would be viable options?

Cummins for the season until we get someone.

Wane…would he leave Wigan where he has a cushy number but would sort them out.
Rowley for next season

Down under..who is available?

Holbrook…think he is hanging on to see what’s going on at Sts

Maguire…same as smith..had his day?
Anybody else know if anyone available?

It does appear on the surface at least that Tony is far too kind of a coach, similar to Hodgson and to an extend Radford (if you were one of his best mates). Another thing that is creeping in is a sense of victim mentality. Reading yet another article this morning about how Pele was harshly done to has annoyed me. Everyone knows the current state of refs in SL are poor, but we can't keep looking to it as an excuse.

I said it a couple weeks back, however our contact in defence is pathetic. Even London rolled us down the pitch, it comes down to S&C and technique. Both of which has to be questioned, neither are good enough.

The most worrying part of Saturday for me was that, besides Trueman and possibly Cator/Fash, that is as good as its going to get this season in terms of our starting 1-17. It is frightening how bad it is. We have the worst use of the Quota Spots in the league.

Overall, Tony is probably the least of our worries, which goes to show the monumental hole this club has dug itself. This is a man who has turned it around everywhere he has gone, yet at the moment we have made him look truly hopeless. I'm afraid a loss on Saturday and Good Friday will see no way back for him.

Gentle was a very good coach and got some ordinary signings playing well and didn’t we batter Rovers to go top of the league during his Tenure?….could do with him or Peter sharp now.2 unlucky coaches to be sacked imo.

There's no point even speculating who would come in, we don't have the money, it would be Grix till end of the season.

Totally agree and his record at Halifax doesn't exactly fill you with confidence.

Quote: The games afoot "

I think your comments are childish and desperate, I was born in 1953 so have seen more than most, and insults don't really have any credibility on fans forums so I resist a comeback on your comments.
