| Quote: Mild Rover "Washbrook, Hadley, Naughton, Talanoa and a few others look bigger than last year to me. Mrs B had a picture of Callum Lancaster at one point and he seemed to have bulked up considerably. They look fit and well conditioned too, though by the hour mark that might reflect more on how trampled the opposition are. Powerful rather than, big, if you prefer.'"
We have the same conditioner rovers have had for the last few years so I doubt he's suddenly found a new ability to bulk players up. Our players are no bigger than anyone else's, it's just an excuse they give themselves when we beat them |

This is another good thread, I have noticed a couple posters who said they were finished on here have started to re appear, maybe hoping nobody would notice.

And yes I am bored on a Sunday night. |

Oh yeah, forgot about that. Slightly awkward.
Quote: Dave K. "As fan of over 20 years it pains me to say this, but this is he point our years of decline are in danger of becoming a terminal spiral.
Yet another disappointing home display, the team didn't even turn up for about 20/30mins, gave a distinctly average Catalan a head start, and somehow allowed them to win when they've been hammered every week when visiting the UK.
Same collection of issues that have dogged us for years, no attacking game plan, poor kicking, awful conversion attempts. Failure to turn up for 80mins. No different attacking moves to all the other 'close but got no points' games we've had in the Radford era. I think most fans are realistic and didn't expect a classic today, 7th versus 8th in a dead rubber was never going to be, but we do expect effort for the full game. The young kids did better over the last few weeks than the experienced pro's on display today. Catalan's were also a lot smarter with their play, often playing for penalties and slowing the game down, something we never seem to do.
Crowds and the atmosphere are at their lowest point, Pearson admitted there was only 6,500 in the ground last week and there can't have been any more than that today despite some free/cheap tickets in the North stand. The fans are voting with their feet, in increasing numbers.
I can only plead with Pearson to admit he made a mistake in hiring Radford, and go out and hire an experienced head coach, which would restore confidence and most fans would renew next year and give the team a chance.
I had already decided not to renew my pass next year based on poor performances over the last year and a half, but today really was the final straw, after yet another week of hype in the media 'going to end with a bang' we went out with a whimper. We have signed some quality players next year but it's backs we need more than forwards. We are also losing Lineham and Paea who are quality players who we will miss.
Some posters on here may be glad to hear that after over 20 years of support and approx 11 years posting on here this will be my last thread. This isn't the club I fell in love with, it's a badly managed sinking ship and I can't see anything changing anytime soon. Over and out!'"

"The Slow Death of Hull FC" post was frankly embarrassing.
Also good to see that we are very close to securing a top four spot meaning that Radford avoids bumpy's firing squad.

Reckon he'll go for a blowpipe and a paper dart created from his pathetic petition as opposed to a shooter.

| Quote: easthull fc fan "You said a lot of things at the start of the year, you just like to put the knockers on everything positive, you try & put doubt in fans minds, all teams are made up of experienced signings & youth, we have to sign players so we can compete because If we don't we have so called fans calling for players/staff out! You don't attend games yet you have the cheek to comment on everything the club do. Who had us finishing 5th 6th or 7th? What position did you predict? Bet it's killing you us winning games eh bumps?'"
Can you even understand what I've written, not in any way shape of form have i tried to put down anything positive. I'm reasoning regarding our current position, about fan expectation, about how doing X has an effect on Y. I express opinions the same as everybody else, there was a question and I said what i felt might happen, we have a golden opportunity to win something, I asked the question of others as we are now well ahead of early season expectations how will fans react IF we fall away, that's a genuine qestion why are you so het up about discussing the fortunes of the club?
I do attend games, I am a club member, not that that's any of your business and all the ones I don't I watch via my paid for subscriptions,commenting on something you have no idea about. Not that any of that means I cannot voice an opinion on an open forum, no-one put you in charge of stating who can comment and who can't!
From recollection plenty had predicted those positions, I said that we should be easily top 4 with the squad we had but had a stab of 5th on the back of not having faith in LR based on the past two seasons. As I have commented previous I have given LR the plaudits this season and still being able to be balanced to make comments about things he has still being getting wrong (IMO and others too).
Again, you make a stupid comment like Doom and Gloom Merchant did about how us winning is 'killing' me, you really, really have not the feintest idea do you!
Basically you and a few others try to stifle open debate on an open forum with agressive posts...yay you! |
