Theirs not 1 poster on here who wanted radford to fail, but the facts are clear, hes failed for 2 seasons and a bit! Heres a positive for you, hes built a very capable squad, whoever takes over as no excuses, and im positive we can have a good season if the change happens swiftly'"
I said in a post he had no answer to what Widnes was doing to us Thursday night so don't say I'm up his , if he can't do the job I'm the same as you to admit it, but I'm not jumping on him or a player/players because they've made errors collectively, team sport deserves team roasting or praise.

So you are admitting he cant do the job? 2 seasons and a bit tend to suggest he cant.youve made ecuses after excuse of why hes failing. No the players aint tottally faultless, but when Radford said last week, we need to get back to basics!!!! I dont think anybody expected what we dished up friday, that was as basic as it comes, not one off load, no support play, no dummy runners, just basic rugby, as radford had suggested. The players have lost faith in him, majority of fans have. Talk of a new contract for Radford is a seriously worrying one, and id suggest Radford as something serious over Pearson if he gets one.we need a coach with some rugby league intellect , not a retired average second rower with little.

He & the players can do the job, but on Thursday not Friday they didn't , not a job they are capable of, rugby is basic but they need to be able to do the basics consistently, do you know they've lost faith in him? Because I know different, he won every honour as a player so he did ok for an average back rower. Write people of at your peril but I think you will look silly when the tide turns.

How do you know different, ehfcf? It would be great if you could tell us something concrete because otherwise the mutterings and assumptions to the contrary will inevitably persist - you know what this city's like! And that will only continue to undermine the team and particularly Radford.
So if you can confirm otherwise, this could help stop the rot.

Not really a theory is it this squad we have can do a job on any team in the comp, do you disagree? You don't even know what night they played pal, I support my team through good & bad I don't drop my lip gloss out my handbag when it goes wrong like certain fickle fans.

Don't disagree, we've got a great squad, and thanks must go to Motu, Adam and Radford for that. But now we've bought the Lamborghini, does the local bloke Pearson's employed to drive it know how to press the right buttons to keep it purring or is it too sophisticated for him?

The problem once again appears to be that we have a decent squad on paper, arguably our strongest in years, but that we once again fail to translate that properly onto the pitch. Those opening wins showed just how strong and deadly we can be but the next two showed that we still lack the mental toughness and game smarts to win the close battles. Then Thursday... well, how many times have we seen FC put in a woeful showing like that over the years? I've lost count.
It's all just typical Hull FC really and it doesn't seem to matter how many changes we make to the squad, we just can't seem to get rid of the Jekyll and Hyde nature of the team. Until we can get to the bottom of this we're always going to struggle.
The other thing to remember is that it's important that we as fans don't give up. Yes, we can moan about things on here when it's not working out (just as we should dish out the plaudits when it is working) but let's make sure we're all behind the boys this Friday roaring them onto victory.

The win in France has made it look like we are going to do the treble, then back down to earth against cas/Wigan we came back against Wigan & still lost which made it harder to take, but in a way I saw it as a bit of an improvement from recent seasons to claw back against one of the top sides, albeit Widnes was a total horror show, to some it seems we've lost everything & should sack everyone & bring all the kids in, but it's not as simple as that, we need & we will to for one make sure we never give in like that no matter how hot the opposition are playing, & kick on from it, the saying goes you hit your lowest before you go up, I see this is where we are the players & staff have had it out apologised & are putting it to bed & correcting it. It's sport we move on because dwelling on it solves nothing, just wish some fickle fans will see this.

| The problem is the same as other years . No decent halfbacks.
Sneyd is average . Price is past it .
We need a Gale , Lui or Sandow.
Until that is addressed we will never compete .

Sneyd is ok, but he plays well on the back of good go forward, kr have very good HBs in campese & kelly but gash forwards, Walsh is poor when his forwards are not are there best, that's usually the difference of your halfs looking poor.
