That was roughly when it all started.

Balls........

On paper, BEFORE the start if the season I said our signings were poor and those we did sign were over hyped and over rated!!

Agree, very average and no-one to fill Moa or Manu's spaces. The players brought in besides Ellis and DJ are average joe's who do not improve the side in any way. We even have one of them (Crookes) sitting on the sidelines he's that good!

I don't see how he's been a bad signing at all. He was playing well before injury. Since then Lineham's come in & done just as good, possibly better so no reason to take him out of the team. Should Lineham or Briscoe get injured he'll come back in the team & probably play well, if we hadn't signed him we'd probably just end up playing Whiting there again.

Yes because we're picking Lineham who looks very promising when going forward, but sadly lacking (along with Arundel) in defence. Rovers left side must have thought it was Christmas with the space they were given. I actually felt sorry for Lineham because he had to keep going infield to touch the ball, because it certainly wasn't coming along the line to him. Crookes must be worth a run because he was doing nothing wrong till his injury.

Even Holdsworth has a lot to prove... I'm not convinced. Without a proper partner he's average!! Every player we signed was from a team finishing below us in the bottom half last year!! Barring Ellis obviously!!

You know what, for you that's not too shabby. Topical and relevant.

Made me chuckle anyway (for the first time today).

Should have found a place for Crookes today - they didn't even put many bombs up. The lad is unlucky IMO strong runner with a bit of aggression and devil. Hull FC as a team has no devil in it. No aggressive spirit.

Who'd have thought that we'd miss Aspinwall and Goldie? Both would have done a job for us today and they were pretty ordinary average signings last year. Really poor business done on the recruitment front this year.

Never a truer phrase there my red friend

If the rose tinted glasses and blinkers were off many FC fans yesterday, and took a look at the recent form of both FC and KR, they'd have seen two poor sides on the field yesterday, but at least your lot were a team. FC were a disgraceful bunch of "Individuals" without focus and dignity.

Cant see us going anywhere but the bottom of the league

Fooking Rovers were nearly 2/1 with the bookies as well.
Oh how I wanted to bang a big wedge on them but my moral compass would not allow it.

More fooking fool me.

I dont buy into that....Wigan bought Green and Smith who were both at lower clubs and Sts got Manu and Turner from a team who finished below them...Leeds got Moon as well from Salford.

Ok... We didn't sign one player from a team that finished in the playoffs!! And we finished 6th, nearly half the league was above us!! We didn't start with a 'top 4' squad like them and just tweaking the changes. We started with a poor squad and, in my opinion, made it poorer. Our recruitment this season is up there with the worst!!

Peter Sharp.... The legend who decided to keep a hooker to play at full back (Tony)

...... Then decided to let our only proper full back leave to Rovers (Briscoe)


........ Ohh and got rid of the the best number 7 we've had in years Brough


Peter Sharp is ONE of the reasons were in this mess today.
