I've give he club much stick over the last few years (most of which I still feel was justified) and this year is the first time in approx 20 years without a pass but I'll be giving them another chance on Friday.

The Rovers game last week was a good example of the jeckl and Hyde nature of HullFC, the first 60mins was dire, dreary stuff that has driven thousands of fans away, the last 20 showed flair, commitment and effort that will get the fans back. It's up to the players and coach to keep this run going and repair the damage caused of years of decline.

The Wakefield game was dreadful to watch but at least we won and maybe their recent form puts our performance into context.

1. When did we nearly get relegated? I must have missed that one.
2. Show me the link to the "scientific study" with regards to home advantage. If playing at home has no advantage then why of the 10 sporting divisions that I have just referenced do 80% of all teams have a better home record? You are quoting rhetoric with no basis on fact.

Here's a dictionary definition of fickle:

"changeable, inconsistent; inconstant in one's affections"

What's pompous and lazy about defining supporters who only attend when the team is winning as the above ? It's exactly the right definition. Nobody is saying it's wrong to be changeable or inconsistent with support - but there's no denying that there are several thousand people who fall into this category. It's the same at most clubs and always has been and will be. People who fall into that category shouldn't be too sensitive about being labelled as fickle. In the same way diehards shouldn't worry about being labelled in that way. It's diehards who keep clubs afloat when they are not doing well. That's undeniable.

Yet the diehards are often classed as the happy clappers by a few on here.

I also think the same could be applied to the display against rovers,they were actually very good for that first hour and they have followed it up with 2 good performances,how many teams could pull that game out of the fire.

1. If you want to ignore what happened in 2014 that's up to you. 1 point in front of Wakey and a Bradford side in administration plus 6 points off with little to play for toward the end having to offload players left right and centre but yeah we were outstanding!!

2. Don't be so lazy and find the study yourself, it isn't hard to find. It was done on the US.
Basic understanding of human behaviour tbh.

1. Your statement referenced relegation.....at what point did we come close?
2. You made a statement that there is no benefit to home advantage. Now you are referencing basic understanding of human behaviour? Make your mind up. There clearly is an advantage to playing at home....the facts and statistics make this easy for those who are not trying to appear intellectual to see.

Who said we were outstanding? Are you totally incapable of having an adult conversation?

We were twelve points clear of Bradford. Even without their points deduction we'd have been six points clear of them.

By your rationale we were also nearly 7th.

Everyone knew London and Bradford were for the drop that year. There was never a period were anyone thought we were going to drop, spare a few of the doom and gloom brigade.

Ffs can we give the let's all have a go at knockers thread a miss for a change.
And realistically relegation was a possibility that year and had London and Bradford not been in their critical situations,so who knows what would have happened, thankfully we survived.

I thought this might have been a positive thread for a change.

All we need to do is enjoy our little bubble whilst it lasts and if and when it does pop it's not a dire performance that has defined our recent history.
With positive performances irrespective of being on the right side of the scoreline all the time this should bring the feel good factor and fans back that have been missing for too long now.

The stay away fans will come back in dribs & drabs, the team is worthy of more fans at the minute, they are playing how the glory supporters want them to, so no reason not to have a few more through the turnstiles.

Well the only way they'll get me there regularly is if they move the KC about 300 miles north, but I'll be there whenever I can.

Good effort, keep fingers crossed they moved Wimbledon ha.
