We're FC fans and we all look forward with some trepidation to 10-00pm on 15th February and wonder how we'll feel then. Because that's what we do! Some of us almost feel we know where we'll be then, because this is Hull FC and we've been there so many times before, but we have at least to try and be positive for now and dare I say some of us are even a bit excited about the coming season.
I'll be first to identify 'problems' and enjoy constructive questioning of the squad etc on here, even at this point in the process, but it's only conjecture at this time. We have a great coach some good youngsters a few unknown quantities, some loyal 100% club men and possibly the most passionate and vociferous fans in the game. Well that's how I see it so for now at least, bring it on.
So I guess I pose the question out of interest, without any prejudice, do you see any positives for next season at all because you don't appear to??'"
I used to argue with him, then bantered with him now he’s on ignore. I only read his repetitive post because you quoted him.

But it's hard to be positive
When we was awful last season
And I think signing for replacement we aren't much better
Brown good signing who replaces Clifford who's our best player
Swift hasn't been replaced
Ese ese and okunbur will be good but again they're replacing our better forwards who left
We won't go to the level whilst certain dead wood still here
15th feb is irrelevant it's about how we've done once September comes

Gale is truly done couldn't even make his mark in the championship at keighley
Milnes always seen him as just a bang average player bit like ben mcnamara ( still amazed leigh signed him )

| Seperately, I think long term relegation will be one of the best things that happened to Wakey. It allowed them to have a clear out of the players they don't want, get new owners on board and have this season to build a competitive squad for their likely return to SL in 2025, not just a squad full of panic buys to do just enough to keep them up

Actually looks like he did turn them down.

Trying to be positive, I think out squad on paper is stronger than last season
Stronger at FB
weaker on the wing
same at centre (although I fancy Carlos to suprise a few this season)
Stronger at halfback (depth)
A lot Stronger at prop
Weaker in the backrow.
You keep saying we have lost better forwards, but Satae was massively inconsistent, hardly did any work and Savelio and Griffin, spent more time off the pitch. Doesn't matter how good you are if they don't play.
Youngsters will be better after some gamtime last season and another pre season.
I'm sure it will all change, but feeling a bit of positive at at the moment.

If you know anyone who went to Reece Lynns testimonial dinner then ask them what Gale had to say about Hull FC, and more so the ‘fans’ in his guest speech. If I said then you wouldn’t believe me.

The feeling is mutual. He's a spent force and in hindsight we should never have signed him.
While we're all having a laugh and joke, Rovers are better off without him. It does look a bit like panic stations though with you after Gale and Reynolds

Not really a suprise, he was awful and apparently not very well liked by the other players except Connor.
