It's only a number.
It doesn't gaurantee him a starting spot but based on last year's form I'd say he deserves it.
Also based on yours and Diablo's theory does that mean that azza gets no where near the first team as he will have 33 on his back.

Another cost cutting exercise!

Of course. You've been the dominant force in the city for the last 2 years (as per your sig), so we've thrown the towel in.

You probably won't appreciate the irony, but that's Standee's favourite comeback when losing an argument about a player. It doesn't wash when he uses it either - not least because I don't come from Hull and neither do a few others who post on here.

And Horne is hardly unassailable in any case. He regularly comes in for criticism.

And finally - I've been a critic of Yeaman for years. As have a few others.

Any other 'arguments' you'd like me to blow holes in?

Can anyone tell me who the f**k else we could name at six? We have no one else at this moment in time and if we get someone he will have 36 or whatever number comes until he is the regular six. Yes Horne is in his twilight years but how many of us noticed our drop in form when he got injured this year?

I'm as ed off as the next person that we are not top of the league and winning everything in sight but I would rather have Horne playing six than some overpaid git who doesn't even want to be here FFS.

play Whiting there

Hornes the best we have at the moment so we'll have to make do?

it's going to be a long long season with many ups and downs before the end

lets just enjoy the good times and keep the faith

In a nutshell.

Blow holes? Really though? You're backing up the sheep on here who reckon Horne is the answer, when he clearly isn't. He had a few good games this year and none for the last 3 years.

Give it up banging the drum, you clearly have a crush.

top comment and bang on now lock it

Good to see the Horney bashing has starting early , what a bunch of tossssers you get on here . FFS the guys give over 10 years of blood and sweat in the black n white shirt

There's a difference between Horney bashing and saying he is not the man for the job if we have top four or trophy aspirations.

Agreed we won't every make top 4 or win a trophy with Rich playing ...... Oh wait a minute !!!!!

Wait a minute what??

That was years ago
