| Quote: Kosh "The crowd is fed up of season after season of the same failings. Fed up of season after season of unfulfilled promises, and players that can't string together two performances in a row. Fed up that no matter how loudly they shout the players repeatedly fail to respond.
And while Radford did indeed go on to blame the players he also made it pretty clear he had no idea how to fix things. Pretty depressing stuff.'"
The crowd, of which I was one, performed poorly today as it has done for a long time.
It was Radford's worst post match interview yet but not because of his reference to the crowd.

| So,Radford's blaming a lack of crowd atmosphere for his team's performance at home.
Hmmm... Well the away support has been magnificent, and yet.. we havent won an away game this season.

I thought the majority of the blame he dished out fell squarely on the players. It was a concern though that he didn't seem to know how to address the issue.

| Can't really add much more to what has already been said. It's just frustrating beyond belief. Not just Hull FC but I'm becoming more and more disillusioned with the game as a whole and it's something I never thought I would say.

Likewise - the thought of slogging back up the M1 on Friday night again has never been less appealing.

Crowd are poor at home, Radford is right. But the team over the last 5 years have bored people into it. Today, not one song in the first half. Nothing.

me too, the attitude problem seems ingrained in the club, different players ,different coaches, even different owner!! same problem.I have no idea what the solution is, hope there is someone out there who does,but really disillusioned now!!?

Please explain your answer and show me were in the past I have asked for coaches to be replaced in these circumstances. If you can't see Radford is out of his depth and making mistakes after mistakes, then you are blind.
I wasn't convinced that Radford was the right man for the job when appointed, as he was too inexperienced for this type of position,but was willing to give him a chance, I'm not saying he should be sacked, but maybe someone brought in to support him.
See as you are so knowledgable about Rugby, please give me the reasons you think Radford is the right man to take Hull forward?

| Another defeat on Friday and 6 games away from the KC with the possibility of winning 1 will see a few more fans drifting away imo

Radford sounded like a guy totally lost and out if his depth. I'm all for honesty in a coach but some of the barbed comment re players won't do him any favours in the dressing room. I was doubtful at the time he was experienced enough to take on the job but was willing to give him benefit of doubt. Looking at performances and his interviews his inexperience at this level is a telling factor. When are we going to learn the giving assistant coach after assistant after assistant is what the club needs. What it needs is a head coach with experience and proven track record.
His interchanges at times have been agaresque & we simply can not back up any kind of performance.
My biggest concern from the interview is he said that he knew from the London game when he took Westy off that we lacked a lot without him on the field so they'd worked on it in training.... Well what exactly have they done on it in 2 weeks as it looks like no plan B.
To have a 16 nil lead and blow it in the last 25mins is unforgivable and the blame lays with the Coach & players. They just allowed Wakefield to bring them into a physical rough house style and capitulated once wakey scored. Something we have all seen too many times before.
Questions need to be asked if the whole lot of them and rightly so.
Noble is not the answer either.

| I can't believe some people are on here agreeing with him to a certain extent regarding the crowd.
People were initially singing but it made no difference to this boring game so they gave up. If the players are going to display no energy or enthusiasm why should the crowd sing and cheer.
The spark has to come from the team, they're proffesional sportsmen who surely realise this, so to blame the crowd is desperate to say the least.

| To say "I don't know what the answer is" as a coach, just shows how far out of depth he us.
Pearson wants to have him in his office tomorrow and make him give him the reasons why he should to kept on and how he will turn us around.
Nobody expected a top four finish, but there should be improvements or at least the same level of performances on last season with the squad we have IMO.
