The hudds game proves this, your halfbacks are vastly overrated and your experienced big players are on the way out, I'm sorry but your no where near top four at this moment in time, and your going to be very frustrated next year when things don't all go your way and believe me in a relegation year they WON'T!'"
You mean like Morley, Meli and Puletua? |

Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white

| Quote: Mrs Barista "Well, quite. Only an utter fool would try to argue Rovers have had a better season than FC.
The chairman's motives are to get the club to be more successful than it has been this season. He has had two years to assess Gentle and deemed his tenure an improvement vs Agar, but not up to the standards he himself has set. I'm not convinced you can be confident that AP "has completely ignored" the infrastructure point, that's complete supposition on your part. The progress of our academy indicates that some building blocks have been put in place already. Gentle has improved the first team in some areas, as Pearson has acknowledged. Radford is hardly starting from a base of zero, but AP's judgement is that he can step on what's there already in key areas - responsibility, motivation, consistency - and to provide ultimately a pathway for Andy Last who has already been approached by a couple of clubs above us.
I'd agree his knowledge of the game is limited and you do seem fond of predicting the end of his tenure. But the evidence he is disillusioned with the sport after 2 years is somewhat absent. It could be more readily argued that he is taking action precisely because he does care. For disillusionment in the sport, knee-jerkery and abandonment, there seems more evidence the threat is closer for you than us. Has the investment trailed on Radio Humberside and in his programme notes been forthcoming or just disappated, Larvin-style?
might be just what we need. I'm certainly more confident he'll man up if he doesn't deliver rather than bleating about injuries, playing teams full of internationals every week and short turnarounds. FC were criticised by Rovers fans in the past for having an excuses culture. The boot really couldn't be more on the other foot now.'" |

I looked at your forum the other day and even your fellow fans are embarrassed by you. Worry about your own club, and dream if a time you get to wembley and finish as high as 6th.'"
Im not bothered about money and nor am i trying to create competition or make stupid bets. and im not the one who's deluded thinking your going to finish top four, aslong as we challenge for a top 8 place then ill be happy, but you lot really are deluded if you think your going to be challenging Leeds, saints Wigan or Warrington, SL this year has been shockingly weak with Salfords (patched up academy side) Londons shockingly weak team Castleford bad half of the season and the financial ruin of Wakefield cut short their season, getting to the ccf is just papering over the cracks at HULL FC but that's just my opinion. |

Isn't Morley playing In a grand final net week? And didn't Puletua and Meli play in one of the best playoff games for years and Lost By 1 point, A lot better than that embarrassment you served up against Huddersfield. |

Are you really this thick? If you had bothered to read this board over the last few weeks, you would have seen very few fans predicting hull to fonish top 4, most fans think we will struggle and finish 6th to 8th again. With our resources we should be challenging for the top 4.
You have a decent 13, but a few injuries and you will be fooked.
Not confident about the coaching ability of noble either, who hasnt done anything for years.
Enjoy your moment with your little club and stop actong like a knob. |

You're a clown and an embarassment to your club and fans.
Now run along before someone else hands you your backside on a plate. |

Try again.
Find me one single mention, or even a hint of a mention, of this season being a 'disaster'.
I'll wait. Take your time.'" WiH has already answered my question but thanks anyway. |

I reckon if you asked on his board how long it takes to build a stand that takes 52 weeks to build at CP you'd be hung |

And how many passes have you sold?
And what is an acceptable return for Rovers? having a 2013 loss of £300k instead of the usual £450k pa?
"stop taking the Mickey"

Things must be bad when you get a Salford fan on here taking the pi$$.How do you know things wont go our way..at least we have a team...not a bunch of has beens,wannabes and mercinaries.We get batterd in 1 game and you decide to jump on here...when you finish 6th,win a play-off game and reach a major final in a season (and its a failure) then come back...until then sod off. |
