I have waited until this morning to post my thoughts on last night in the hope that I would have calmed down. Sadly I have not.

Last night was a disgrace! I keep trying to tell myself that it was Wigan and that I wasn't expecting a win. But given the amount of players they had out I expected a more even contest. Once again the players let us down (with the exception of Shaul and one or two others). They looked clueless and once again lacked any passion. They should be ashamed to be professional sports players.

But for all the players let us down, last night was the last straw for me with Radford. He hasn't a clue what he is doing. His tactics are woeful. Our defence is worse than it was last year and our attack is no better. It's his job to get those things right, get the players fired up for matches. Sadly he has proven that he can't do that for me.

He must go and it must be now. He's had his Wembley moment (the Widnes game) and he's had his Huddersfield moment (last night). I genuinely fear that we will get relegated if he remains in charge.

Noble's available. Tony Rea's available. Either of them could do a better job than Radford. I can't believe we sacked Gentle for this clown. Christ, I'd take Paul Cullen if we could prise him away from Sky.

in a way, I don't blame Lee, he was gifted a job he was never suited for. You only need look at him, he is in way out of his depth, I wouldn't surprised to see him wearing arm bands in Manchester next weekend.

Keep looking down then, it's sink or swim for us now, but I won't stop supporting them, but like I've said I'm looking ahead not behind.

Quote: easthull fc fan "I see yours & others points, but we need time to grow as a club, bringing in new coaches/players for a season or 2 is all good & well as a quick fix but not going to do us any justice for the future, I am going to keep "glass half full" for this & next season & see what's after 2015 for us.'"

I agree we need stability but that has to be with the right personnel in place. None of us know if radford is a good coach or not so backing him is a massive risk. If we were backing someone with a proven track record then it's a different matter

Pete,

My blueprint for a return to success at Hull FC.

1. Appoint Brian Smith as Head Coach.
2. Let Smith, choose his own staff & his own coaching structure. - with no limits on staff budget.
3 Implement a Sports Science Dept.
