I know you're full of it with comments like that.
Hull had no tangible assets or a place to call they're own when Pearson came in.
All he's try to do is establish a permanent base for us one to call our own.
Recruitment wise he's relied on others who have led him down the garden path.
He is passionate about hull and wanting us to succeed after speaking with him.
For me now though he's biggest fault is stubbornly believing in Radford.
Radford would not get a coaching gig SL or championship currently and any other owner would have rung the changes I believe.
Pearson however has backed himself into a corner and this saving face by backing Radford will ultimately backfire.

Or as someone has said you buy the club and do a better job.

IMO the next two games and how we perform make more of an impact than the two following games.
Firstly because it is exactly how we react from the performances of last night and the week before in these two games that will have a huge bearing as to how we go on the two games and beyond as we'll have almost played 1/3 of the season.
As I said the difference between how we perform over the next two games could well decide how our season pans out, lose badly in both and the chances of winning the folowing two games that you reckon have more bearing are even less. Sneak a win, a draw, just something for the players to draw upon and the following two games whilst not easy to get a result from a mental POV are a little easier.
Losing confidence and the drain of losing games week in week out (which would be apt if we've lost 5 weeks running) and the added pressure each week from losing has a massive bearing on what happens next.
That's why the next two games are more important for me.

Yeh, I was wondering what to do with that spare £5m I have in the wardrobe, cheers Bombed Out.

To address some of your points:
- We have a 'training complex' knocked up with some MDF and plaster board & the situation with the KC has never been this bad, fuelled partly by his relationship with the Allams.
- His reliance on others is his own fault for being naive and ignorant, the buck stops with him.
- Passionate & wanting us to win, completely agree, that's not in question.
- Stubbornly believing in Radford. Time will tell. getting rid of a coach after 18 months isn't good, I'd point to the appointment originally as being his mistake.

Bottom line is we're a laughing stock, most of which is due to his poor decisions.

This is where I think you're wrong. That's how it works for normal sides, but over the last few years we have consistently shown that that is exactly what we do not do. We are consistently inconsistent, and putting in performances in the next 2 games make it no more or less likely that we'll carry that on. In fact, recent history has multiple examples of the opposite, where we do well for a couple of games against good sides then go back to being plain awful against those around us in the table. Last night's second half was quite surprising for that, the first half was much more our style against a top 4 side. For about 7 or 8 years now we've lumbered from performances to build upon to coaches looking for a reaction to an unacceptable debacle almost from week to week. In terms of results and importance, the next 2 games are the same as all the others, but as indicators as to whether we've finally put our split-personality to bed they are pretty irrelevant. That's what I mean by how telling they are about our long-term progress.

It was six years ago yesterday since Tony Smith was appointed at Warrington. Prior to that we were a club that liked to believe we could win things and probably had a set of players who were capable of winning things. In those six years we've won three challenge cups, a league leaders shield and been to two Grand Finals. Without Smith I doubt we'd have achieved any of the above. Appointing the correct coach is the key. Radford is I suspect our Paul Cullen.

I know that Brian Smith was available to Salford before Noble was appointed but Koucash decided he was too expensive. On a long list to choose from that still remains Koucash's biggest recruitment mistake at Salford.

Perhaps Pearson should be on the phone to Brian Smith.

I dont think Hull FC employ one..

In our dressing room, prior to a game, we dont see any psychological evidence.

For example,Wigan....

They have photos of their players pinned on each hook in the dressing room,with instructions,
also large banners with motivational phrases..

Hull KR do exactly the same. when we play them in the Derby..

It wasn't a short turnaround. So they can stop using that as an excuse. Same time as Hudds to Wire.

Are we looking at the latest version of player power? My brother works with a current FC player who wasnt in the side yesterday and when asked what he thought the result would be was told we would get battered. Was that said tongue in cheek or did he know something?

There was a thread on here preseason that discussed the current abundance of promoted no. 2s in SL head coaching positions when talking about our choice of Radford. You were pointed out as the exception, but I completely agree with you and said at the time that the key thing to point out is that yours was the most similar situation to that which we've now been in for a few years, which was one of underachievement requiring rebuilding. Most of the promoted no. 2s (particularly the successful ones) have inherited strong situations and been asked to continue the work already done, rather than revolutionise a club. You bit the bullet and got an experienced coach with a strong SL track record to do it, we've gambled on following the latest trend without having the groundwork done for him. It was always a massive ask.

He gets the next 4 games for me.

Avoid a hammering at Wigan (Which is normal)

Then win 2 out 3 from the following games.

Although Leeds did get an extra 2 days, which might have made the difference between our players being available to play, or not, as it happens.

Or maybe Leeds wouldn't have been able to play the same starting line-up for the 4th game on the trot.
