Im making no excuses, just pointing out that publically slating a player out of form wont help him get his form and confidence back.

I dont see how you think this would help.

Is that what was wrong with him, I thought someone had put cement in his boots.

Send the player out on loan if they've lost confidence, don't put them in our first team.

All I can say is, im glad alot of you arent given the reigns at our club.

All i can say is Tony Smith has done it with Sims saying he was dropped and then played him in the reserves.
Dont get what the problem is.
Are you saying it might hurt his feelings if dropped and have to play in the reserves rather than a stimulus to regain his place in the first team.

Again, I dont know why you think its important BH says it in the media. Why is that so important ?

Also the Tony Smith sutuation is different, for a start he doesnt have 10000 cry babies after every loss.

I don't think my point was that bad. It makes sense to me that a player with zero confidence would be better suited somewhere else rather than in Hull FC's first team.

BH is going to go all Radford for this match

Mark my words !

completion rate v Rovers was a diabolical 52% which means on 18-19 sets we managed to end the set before the kick with some crap error

BH will focus on this but it’s how he will focus that will make you cringe

BH will go for 5 drives and a kick - there will be no flair - no offloads

basically LR style will be back

just watch

Assuming Castleford and Hull KR do not have blowout wins your 9 match prediction barometer still has us finishing in the top 6 at the end of the season even if we lose to Warrington today.

IF Cas win and Rovers win and we lose
all possible
Then we are 8th ?

HOPE we win and stay 5th as we have something to build on

Will you e-mail AP if worst case scenario transpires and we end up 8th?

Any win today will do. Scuffed drop goal last minute. COYH

I emailed him last week after Giants loss stating that BH has done a poor job in motivating the team !
I got a reply which I’ll keep between me and him
- nothing serious in it

9 game barometer never lies

Does he always reply to you cos you've sent him a few haven't you?




Well did he agree or disagree?




Is it a mercury or aneroid barometer?

He replies quite often but I only email twice a year max
