By definition, then, your post is also a bite (as is this one).

| Well done on finishing the higher out of the Hull clubs for the past two seasons.
It’s like two bald men fighting over a comb, but I suppose you have to take what you can

| Hull Live story confirms our move to Hull Uni is on for November with Pearson admitting facilities at County Road have become outdated.
Really does feel like a fresh start for the club this winter.

quite frankly having been around both Clubs for about 70 years I do think anyone from the other side of the river accusing us of living in the past is pretty rich.

Well it doesn't happen on your secret site. Can't have anyone coming on and ruffling a few feathers can we?

Cannot be a secret if even you know about it.

TS must have his interview notes on his computer. Change a few names and that’s basically what he said when he joined us.

Changed the bit about joining a big club, obviously.

Well he certainly delivered at Rovers - this time last year the fan base were fully galvanised behind the "best coach in Super League" and the RL media were in love with your style of play
The burgeoning of Lakin's ego and its associated detrimental antagonism brought all that crashing down but fingers crossed we manage Smith's obvious talents better and allow his vast experience to benefit the club in as many areas as possible.

| Could be Danny Orr as assistant coach, leaving Salford, despite them wanting to keep him.

| Big club? He’s become delusional like the rest of you. Mr Lakin manages KR not TS. Maybe Mr Pearson will be better at massaging TS’s ego.

Why are you so bothered?
It really seems to bother you that TS is now at Hull FC with amount of time you’ve spent on the Hull FC pages and posts made. For me TS ticks all the required boxes needed to bring the best out the players, he is experienced & has a proven record of turning the fortunes round at Huddersfield, Wire, Leeds and HKR. I think the saltiness coming from the east side of the city be it fans or media just reinforces to me that AP has made the right decision for our club.
I don’t think I’ve ever known in my time following Hull FC so much said or reported about Hull FC by our rivals across the river when we’ve appointed a head coach.
It is genuinely exciting and interesting times for our club with the huge changes made in the back room and training facilities. Add to that the success of the youth development program, improvements since the Allams left the SMC the feel good factor is coming back. Yes it’s a long road and no guarantees but the probability is much greater with an experienced and proven coach at the helm at last.

| I think the animosity is borne out of fear that TS might actually be the one to finally fulfill the potential at FC.
And they know how good he actually was when he was there.
