Quote: tommyfromhull "What exactly do you want Pearson to 'shake up'? We have a new coach and new players. I agree some of our players aren't good enough, we desperately need a half back to work with Rankin, and Radders is in the deep end, but would changing any of these make a difference half way through the season in our position? I'm not sure.

I say we go with what we've got, build our younger players up and keep working hard. Plenty of players will be in/out again next season, let's hope it's for the better. Pleasing tonight that we've shown a bit of fight, our backs not good enough to contend. Get Fetuli with Sa on one wing while Lineham is back, massively missing him and Crooks on our right. Another write off season, but I'm happy that we're still giving young players debuts and gametime, and they are genuinely progressing well. Going to take a long time to get out of the cack to where we want to be.'"


I keep hearing how pleasing it is that we made an effort tonight. Well, forgive me for disagreeing, but isn't this part of a wider pattern that stretches back years? We put in a good effort against a top side and pick up an unexpected win or a valiant defeat, then look only half interested as we get embarrassed by a side in the bottom half of the table. The idea that we should just blindly persevere with Radford will end up causing as much damage as Agar's tenure did. We're in a state of fairly rapid decline, and if we don't bring someone in to arrest that decline soon, we could end up languishing in the lower part of SL (or worse) for years to come.

I don't buy all this 'it will take years to sort' guff, either. Yes, it might take years to get us to the same standard as Leeds/Saints/Wigan, but it would take only a competent coach and a couple more players to get us competing for the 4th, 5th and 6th spots. Even with the squad we have, a good coach should have us around 6th. Which is where a supposedly poor coach had us for two years running.

If any one of us goes to work and "has a bad day" we get sympathy, if that day becomes a week, we get a 1-1 and a chat about getting it together, if that week becomes a fortnight we get a final warning, and if that fortnight becomes a month, we get our P45, and rightly so.

So, Radford has won 5 from 14, so that is 5 good weeks and 9 bad weeks, I thought he said he'd walk if he wasn't up to it, maybe someone can tie his laces for him?

Strange that Craig Murdock said last night that Jacob Miller had his best game for Hull (unless I misheard him) and yet in the HDM James Smailes rates him at just 5/10 and our worst performer.

depends on contract terms

but you are right, he's going nowhere, just like the club with him anywhere near

hate being right, he should never have been given the job

I was prepared to give him a go as I thought he would sort out all the crap and cliques but he has fallen short on everything so far.He needs someone with him now to help him if he is going to be here for the rest of this season.

I think it says everything about where we are , when a team operating at the full salary cap comes out of a game happy the defeat is not by 50 points.

agree, but who? the season is over anyway, it's relegation we need to worry about, even with an open cheque book, who is there?

Relegation isn't a issue with me unless the RL don't want Bradford to go down but even then,I can't see it.Only 1 out there but I wouldn't want him but to help out for this season then Noble.

How many wins do you see between now and the season's end?

At the minute it is an issue. Even if Bradford get just two points back we could be just a few points above them before long and we still have to visit their place.

We've only won away twice in ten months and our remaining home games are Warrington, Cas, Saints, Rovers and Leeds who would all beat us on current form.
