Certainly Kear wasn't given the time that Agar and latterly Radford have. Neither was Sharp nor, I would argue, Gentle.

I understand Kear's issues related to the culture within the club (drinks with the lads?) and certain senior players including the legend Swain didn't like that. But I do think the team spirit and cohesion since Kear's exit has been our downfall.

Chris Chester has everything your club needs and more job done.

Could it be that Radford needs a better coaching team behind him?
Don't think it's helped having inexperienced assistants as well as an inexperienced first team coach.
Probably all too late now anyway.

Why bother Jake, we will more than likely do sweet footballers if we did make it. Its not often I get despondent, but why is it we seem to get good players, yet do nothing? Widnes scored for fun, we were made to look clowns. No I didn`t go to the match, I armchaired it, which made it lucky that I didn`t get "we can see you sneaking out" when I went to the kitchen 15 minutes from the end to put the kettle on.

Pearson stands on the precipice as he watches his masterplan come to fruition. He must be very very worried right now as his and the clubs stock look decidely rocky at this moment in time.
If this doesn't turn around sharpish and we have to start again if Radford fails Pearson is fooked nine ways to Sunday. The consequences for him and more importantly the club cannot be underestimated as to how dire things could become.
Please Radford do facking something to get us going because us fans are losing faith rapidly, if you can't then do what you said you would do all along and jack ot in. Frankly the whole coaching set up and lack of professionalism needs addressing.
Get someone from outside of RL for me, someone like Clive Woodward as director of rugby to sort the shat from top to bottom.

Pearson has and always will be part of the problem despite his 'investment'
Oh yeah, we need a proper CEO who can sort out whats going on...not the DJ with a degree in jpurnalism

Adam walker doing enough for yours

I think he'll throw his hand in. Then we'll see how much of the "problem" he was with multiple buyers waiting in the wings. Or otherwise.

Everyone gas their price and if Pearson is serious enough he will dangle a carrot over darryl powells head.

The problems are all of his own doing right from before he even actually handed over money to the Hetheringtons. But your lack of understanding won't give you any insight with regard to that will it or will you just play obtuse again?

The club was ready to be transformed from a sleeping giant, the ingredients have pretty much always been here, amazing loyal fans, a fantastic stadium and local players with talent/desire.

Throwing money at something is not enough, he's made mistake after mistake after mistake and has being nothing more than a money man out of his depth with respect to running a business successfully. He's shown to be aloof, a teller of untruths, deceitful, unable to accept.blame, unable to swallow his pride unanle to manage people, unable to identify/employ the correct employees to restructure the business and take it foward (repeatedly). He's proven that he'd rather do things on the cheap in too many facets of the business and that has come home to roost not just with Radford but many other aspects too.

We are where we are not due to lack of spending up to the maximum salary on players but due to so many other reasons and they all start and end with Pearson.
If he walks away/pulls the plug on funding sure we'll be in a worse state but my point about Pearson being part of the problem is still valid.

Niether have I said we cannot change things/turn things around or that the season is done nor even called for Radford to be sacked, just so you are clear and don't have reason to moan for no reason and not comprehend okay Mrs B?

Disagree, still think pearsons the man for the job, top bloke who is trying everything he can to make hull a top team,

Is that some sort of sick euphemism?.......Shame on you!

Almost 5 years down the line and we are not really anywhere closer to winning anything as it stands from tonights performance.
We almost did but then AP soon saw that upward trend wasnt right so just knocked us back 3 more years at least.
Top bloke, I don't understand how/why you say that? what for him making an investment to make money, he's a businessman NOT a benefactor (and has every right to make money) but so far he has being unsuccessful and that is down to his lacking in too many aspects.
I couldn't' care if he's a grumpy miserable hard nosed bstd if he's fair to his staff is open and honest and knows what he's doing, sadly he isn't (well not enough to succeed) and that reflects in how we've performed.
It's my opinion it really isn't personal at all just exacrly what I've seen/read/heard either first hand from him making statements/his actions or through club press releases and on field performance which ultimately sum up how he/we have done.
Can we still succeed under Pearson, it's possible but how long the fans are willing to keep supporting him/the club may well dictate the chances of that. Again that's downnto Pearson and his decisions.

My point was that I think he'll give it up this year. I've called out plenty of what I perceive as his mistakes before. In this scenario I guess we'd see what we've been missing. It may not be a sine Pearson utopia, though.

Has he been sacked yet?

Not read the last 9 pages, but it's hard to stick up for Radford now, that was as bad a performance for 70 minutes as I've seen in the last few years, doubts have started creeping into my mind about Radford during the Wigan game with his selection and use of subs, which he got all wrong.

Not really sure what the answer is, as if he gets the sack, who will come in and it's a case of starting all over again.

Bit fed up and getting a bit bored with Hull.
