So, how many finals/semi-finals under McRae?

Even Agar managed that.

2000 CC semi at the MacAlpine

That wasn't your point though was it. You claimed we played boring rugby under him, which is utter nonsense.

No finals but he sowed the seeds of Cardiff 2005.

If you think we were dire under McRae you know sod all about rugby league.

No, it was shiiite. The amount of times I drove down that M62 to Hull after a hammering at Bradford and Saints was ridiculous. We won nothing at all under him.
As for calling people thick, isn't that against the AUP?

Sowed the seeds for Cardiff? Really though? How so?

My word, I've just been called "thick" by a mechanic.

Irony at its finest.

we played entertaining rugby under mcrae most of the time, i can't see many hull fans coming on here denying that statement. might not have won anything but we were good to watch (smith, barnett, prescott, best, horne, cooke - don't really need to go on)

My opinion only. I guess I forgot to look at peoples post count before daring to comment. Is there some sort of clique I need to avoid?

I went to nearly every game during that period and was sick and tired of getting beat and nowhere in cup runs. Since he went, we reached finals.

Well Bradford were knocking ten bells out of everyone around that time. As for Saints, our results at Knowesley Road were (our score first) 14-27, 34-38, 14-33, 18-28, 16-30 - hardly hammerings. Our home results over Saints under McRae were 20-28, 34-28, 20-24, 30-32, 30-6, 42-18, 34-6.

Pretty sure mcrae's "cancer" speech came after some drubbing at saints

Ah, the one where he threatened to walk out. He didn't.

We were only hammered once at Saints under McRae.
We took about 3 hammering at Bradford in 5 years.

Under Kear, we were hammered at home against Saints (to nil). We were also hammered at Bradford twice in one season (71-0 being one).

We've only won one trophy. And we were cr*p in the league that year.

You really are talking out your arris. Are you thick or just trolling?


I'm not a mechanic.

But keep going. You're on a roll!

Oops, sorry you are right. I forgot we played them away twice in 2002 - we lost the other one 64-10

Still, not a bad record overall against a good club.

The only thing you need to avoid is posting utter nonsense and then getting upset when challenged. And not by any 'clique' either - a wide variety of posters have disagreed with you.

In fact I'd go so far as to say that you're the only person I've even seen or heard claim that we played boring rugby under McRae. Which leads me to suspect that you just don't like the bloke and blame him for all our problems. Which is fine, but don't expect folk not to pull you up on it.
