Don't be such an idiot
We all want to win and the club to do well but if you actually watched the game its painting over the cracks.
lots of effort and aggression which forced a very poor performance from HKR.
Some good individual performances as has been said and Heremaia pepped us up a lot when he was on the field.
Joint MOTM for me was Ellis and Watts.
The attack is still dire but you obviously don't see that when your excited |

Disgusting as I am I've really enjoyed the last three home games.

I suspect the side you wanted to win last night actually lost. |

What he meant was Bonaire chooses to select a leaving player as pivotal on order to create a negative on a rare very good night for the club.
No one is saying this result is meaningful in the context of SL this year. But if you can't allow yourself to enjoy the performance last night and the following week, and reflect on quite a few positives, what's the point in being a "fan"? Exclusively complaining when we win and when we lose is just pointless. |

Attack wasn't dire, in fact we were pretty clinical at times and had it been dire we wouldn't have scored 5 try's. It certainly wasn't amazing, but you might have noticed the weather wasn't great and that would have had a big impact plus next season we will have two new halfs that should improve our attack.
I certainly think there are reasons to be positive about next season after watching our last three home games, recruitment and the young players coming through. |

Enjoyed the night and the result but take off the rose tinted glasses.My negativity is not about the club or the Chairman its always been about the coach and how he has taken the club backwards.
If you want to be part of the Cuddle Crew sheep on here that's fine by me but all I posted earlier were positive meaningful comments about the effort,desire and individual performances, and how I thought Heremaia pepped us up when on the field.
I agree I said we were dire in attack again which is true.We scored 5 tries but when you look at the amount of ball HKR coughed up and our 85% completion against their 50% or so we should have scored a lot more. |

Who are these cuddle crew, these people that are happy with the way things are going?
I don't see hardly any people on here sticking up for Radford, most in fact gave serious doubts about his coaching ability.
The big difference is they don't go on about it in every single thread, he will be here next season, our Owner who has saved our club from big trouble has told us many times, so why not try and get behind him and the club abpnd see his he does next season.

We SHOULD have scored more points but we played the weather as well,last time we played in conditions like that was at Wembley with "better halfs" and look what happend there.I have serious doubts about Radford but he is going to be here next season with the half back pairing to convert the possesion into pts.If he can get them playing like last night consistently then that will do me me...if he doesn't ,then he deserves the sack,so instead of slagging everything off,why don't you back the team. |

Not wearing any. Last night was really good and it and its context is well and impartially described here:
www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/sport/ru ... -1-6813676
This is not about cheerleading, it's about recognising and enjoying a moment in time. If you choose to let potential failure next week/ year dominate your your mindset, that's your prerogative, but you cheat yourself out of today's fun. Plenty of time to mither about that soon enough. Being a fan is about common and shared enjoyment, in part. To nil Rovers for the first time since 1957 with a brutal defensive display and an icing-on-the-cake effort by Lineham at the end was really enjoyable. Meaningless as it may be in the context of a season, it was still fun, right? If you can't enjoy nights like last night, what's the point? |

Well said Mrs B,
You can only live for the moment, as anything in the past is unchangeable, the old saying is you're only as good as you're last game.

Challenge Cup Winners 2016 (at Wembley) - HULL FC: |
|

Last night was probably the most I've enjoyed a game since Cardiff 2005.
The tackling and the errors they forced was great to see.

Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand

But as sure as God made black and white

| Quote: Jake the Peg "We could all go back months and find people's opinions are proven wrong. Personally, I don't think either are good enough for a half decent SL team but signing a player who has played a decent number of NRL games is less of a risk than signing an unknown like rankin. FWIW, burns was also gash last night but isn't as we know'"
Yes, we could. I just found it ironic that in preseason you were bemoaning us 'missing out' on him and getting Rankin and using it as a stick to beat the club with (seemingly on the strength of Keating playing in a grand final once), yet now he's so bad you're surprised we didn't sign him.
By the way, plenty said at the time that we were right not to go for him as he was/is a good hooker but no half. The flip side of Keating playing more games in the NRL being less of a risk is that there was more evidence that he was/is not what we need. |

I don't think I ever said that we should have signed keating but that on the face of it they had recruited better. I've not seen anything in rankin other than enthusiasm and a bit of pace to suggest he's really any better than keating but I hope he's a lot cheaper. I certainly didn't use it as a "stick to beat the club with" (other than in your mind seemingly). My comment on keating was tongue in cheek and a reference to our continued failure to sign a decent half back (including miller and rankin IMO) but obviously you've mislaid your sense of humour somewhere which is understandable for a Hull fan this year.
Anyway, I look forward to your response |
