It comes to something on this board when most of the sensible comments are coming from the other side of the river!!!

Interesting also because we have seen times worse then these with players not interested in playing, I do believe there are certain players running their blood to water, there just aren't enough stand out players and yes we need a 7 but we aren't liable to get one anytime soon.

As said on a previous thread Crocker and Luiaki will make a difference if they ever get here

So if your going to stop supporting them do so now because things won't change overnight.

A couple of wins and all this negativity will be forgotten and we aren't even half way through what is going to be a very competitive SL this year.

We could be Wigan or Bradford!!

Dont be so fast in pointing fingers and making your own conclusions.

Being a supporter of Hull FC means you just dont give up (unlike 90% of other supporters not so far away from us).

Coaching a team with so many players FULL OF THE OWN SH-T and EGOS is usually a recipe for disaster wether you a good club / coach or not.

One thing is for sure...the supporters of Hull FC is envied within the RL world.

Cmon you uuuuullllllllll.

Never walked away in the Lloyd era either but i was younger then and only had myself to think about. Nowadays i dont and with a family and a classic car to care for, Hull FC and the costs involved dont make sense. I will always be a fan but untill things take a serious change from top to bottom at Hull FC then im out. Quite simply i can get much better enjoyment elsewhere.

I dont think one win will change anything it will just be papering over the cracks

WTF

You think?

From a long term perspective, I actually think we're fairly well set. We've got a great stadium, very strong community programme, a robust business model and will have some top class training facilities when the NHS partnership venue is finalised. More importantly, when the 2011 quota restrictions and homegrown requirements come into force, we are among the best placed to exploit them as we're pretty much operating at those levels already, whereas other teams are way off. We're spending up to the cap and hopefully can ensure that the 5 overseas spots we'll soon be allowed are populated with top class overseas players. Berrigan, Crocker and Lauaki are not too shabby. The big miss at the moment is creative personnel on the field, and an inability to form a gameplan to compensate for this and play to our strengths. Agar will either sort out the latter, or to quote David Burns on our last coach, will be "toast". When this happens, the club need to appoint a top drawer coach, or we'll just be stuck in this cycle.

Well said.

My point exactly - dont have the money to waste anymore, especially with this climate

Anyone said Grade A yet?

THE DOWN SIDE OF GRADE A COULD BE 9 YEARS OF OUR CURRENT COACHING

You don't really understand sport, do you?

It will be interesting to see the outcome of the offshore payments scenario. Maybe our underwhelming recent singings and room under the salary cap will pay off. For what it’s worth, there are a few clubs sweating over this and one of them is not too far down the road from us.

Been going since the late 50s and i think i have seen a lot worse times than this.No relegation now and we have a top class stadium,big gates and first class facilities.What we lack now is a figure who runs the club and is prepared to kick on to the next level.The last person we had like that was the late Roy Waudby who was a passionate black and white and kicked us on to the top level.Call the dobbins but that is what they have in Hudgell,he hates us with a passion ,pity we don't have somebody with the same passion.We have wanted a scrum half for years and the present board will not cough up for a top class player instead taking the cheap option.Don't say Dykes because even though he was a top player it was well known before he signed that he was injury prone(big time)What do they do this season,sign Thorman.I think the last few few games when the going gets tough we have seen how one dimensional he is.We get rid of a coach and give an untried one a two and a half year contract,another one who when the going gets tough seems to lack any ideas.In his post match interview after the Wakefield match all i could hear was him mumbling between slurping his drink.He is like rabbit in the headlights,out of his depth(another cheap option).Compare him with the media whore Justine who just loves the limelight and instils confidence in his players.How much longer do we have to go on with the cheap option, Kath and Co want to remember there is a recession on and people will not spend there hard earned money on one dimensional play we are watching.Most of the supporters know we have injuries but so do other clubs,we can excuse that but we can't excuse boring five drives and a kick.I will always go whatever, but next season supporters who are feeling the pinch may decide not to buy their pass,their shirt,their drinks in the bar then Kath will see the income drop.Come on Hull get your act together and stop using the cheap option,it's a false economy.

I agree with you dabhand

some have money they can afford to spend and not worry

some do not and i guess those that don't may be getting pretty tired of spending money on something that is boring, predictable, players that take their money and dont earn it, and poor value for money I AM

i had only missed 2 home games since 1975 up to salford in the cup. I decided to save my money and not go and glad i did after the result.

its a good job we only have 1 home game from now till 5th June. thats 7 weeks i reckon. so i only have to spend £22 providing the players get their act together during those 7 weeks.

We can only keep the faith Mike and hope for a miracle,we are passionate local supporters not out of town business people.We love the club that's why we are on here.
