Quid for your scarf??? ;-/

Farewell

Sad state of affairs but keep the faith. we will be back

Yes it was garbage on Sunday.

No, it is not acceptable.

However the memories of getting beaten at Dewsbury, Keighley and Rochdale are still fairly strong, so I have seen far worse. This is not the time to flounce out (like it makes any difference to us)

Maybe this "supporter" wasn't around in those really dark days ?

We all live for our days in the sun, and our nearly days in the sun.

Elland Road
Millenium Stadium
Wembley
Old Trafford.

Knowing another one could be round the corner is what keeps me ticking over.
Even when we are cr@p.

Keep the faith boys and girls.

Whilst I was absolutely raging about our display on Sunday, I believe the previous games have shown that we are very close to being a very good team. As long as Radford has the guts to make the necessary changes I'm sure we'll soon be back on the right track. Now is not the time to be deserting our team (despite the best efforts of the RFL and its team of incompetents).

spot on mate.

like keeping Miller and Arundel out, and Horne and Yeaman in?

Arundel played on Sunday!

The OP is not stopping watching because of our current form but because of the state of the game itself. I can see where he is coming from, the inconsistencies in the game seem to have moved to a whole new level this season so far.

Why the hell would I lie?

BTW, it was Howard Firth who introduced me to Hull FC and playing RL. But there again I could be lying
Maybe I played alongside Billy Mallinson.
Maybe I played alongside John Lydiat.
Maybe I played alongside Steve Dennison
I could go on to embarrass you more if you like.

At last, someone who has a full understanding on the situation.

More come backs than Elvis.

I'm looking forward to the white jumpsuit Aloha from Hawaii phase.

While the OP may or may not be back that is not the issue. The OP has a serious and valid point. Once you step away from the knee jerk reactions which litter this thread, you realise that the game is being controlled by idiots. A look on twitter today about Hudgell's comments will explain all.
Richard Whiting is dumped on his head in possibly far worse way than we saw in Australia this weekend, but without serious consequences (there by the grace of god) and a panel decide there can be no punishment. But Poore is banned. Also the difference between Paea and Flowers etc etc far too many incidents after just 6 rounds this year. Add in all the shockingly appalling decisions we have seen over the last 3 or 4 years and you start to fully appreciate the frustrations of people who have followed the game (yes the game there is more to life than Hulll FC) for years.
We never had the issues we have now even 10 years ago. Tackle techniques have changed massively for reasons I really don't fully understand. It's all about wrestling now and not a simple one up one down as it always used to be. I think there is something to be said for only have a 5 metre gap and not 10. It would slow the collision and the impacts thus reducing the danger to the players.
These are decisions that have to be made by strong independent knowledgable officials before the game becomes corrupt and the players are seriously injured. We have had a desire to speed the game up and create situations to encourage attacking play, yet we forget the effects long term on players. There is no consistency from officials and we now have a situation were people are turning away from the game. Add in games on every night but Tuesday causing annoyance a plenty and you soon realise that people have bigger issues than simply yet another p155 poor performance from Hull FC.

(For the record my first hero was George Robinson so I to recall dross)
