East is East,West is West,

| The thing that gets to me is we are all supposed to be supporters. I am not saying everything in the garden is rosy,buts its not a wasteland either.
The forum is about opinions,and opposite ones are always going to be par for the course.There are some on here who can`t seem to bring themselves to say anything positive about the club,being underwhelmed with players,training,coach,assistant coach,board,and facilities.
Speaking solely for myself,I think there are areas for improvement,but we are not the only club in this position.I like the look of the squad that is with us at the moment,and no doubt there will be additions.
I look forward to the matches,even if sometimes I feel let down after, I am still ready for the next one.
Sorry for the rant ,but I am getting fed up with some trying to put the boot into our club all the time.Lets leave that to the types like Cab Man.
100% Hull,and proud of it.

| Quote: Mr. Zucchini Head "And what does it matter if it is? I'll still be there every week to enjoy some rugby and I'll still be looking forward all week to the next game. As much as I want this club to be successful I don't go to games so that I can gloat about how many trophies we won I go because I love the game and I love the club. And if we are rock bottom at the end of the season I will still be straight out to buy my pass for 2012.
I wouldn't mind but our club isn't in even a remotely bad state. Off field you could make an arguement that we are the best of the lot and on field we are quite comfortably a playoff side. Look at the fans of Dewsbury for example, they'll never get in to Superleague in their lifetimes yet they go week in week out regardless, hell the Blackpool fans don't even have a club anymore. Tbh the OP just sounds like a whining, pathetic rant.
Fwiw I am looking forward to Sunday and am confident of a win.'"
I also believe we will win on Sunday, on paper our squad is great imo, however my fear is we do not have cover for pivotal postitions. I love going every week and support my team through thick and thin, I loved last season, however the two before that I often sat in the stadium thinking what the heck am I doing here, but like mentioned every-thing improved last season, the most apparent area of improvement for this year was making sure we have h/back cover and as yet we have failed to do so.

| To me Hull FC is a club that is run as a business and nothing else. Getting rid of players means only one thing to the people at the top and thats more profit. We are a club that reacts to bad situations instead of being proactive. We all knew Berrigan was going months ago yet the club did nothing and still havent to bring in cover and the same goes for half back cover. Phelps has been available for months with most of us seeing that he could do a job but instead the club and coach have gone after an already contracted player in Sammutt whos even said on twitter that he wants to return to the NRL in a season anyway and his club have denied all overtures to sell him but still we pursisted. Now with three days to go till the start of the season were basically screwed as there was no one available so we sign Phelps and now possibly have to wait three months for his visa. Weve got an aging team with Long and Fitz probably in their last season and were gonna have to recruit for 2012 but after thus off season were just ablout every player and his dog has rejected us i have no faith that this wont change next off season. Something is seriously wrong with the whole ethos of the club with priorities all wrong and people who are not good enough or experienced enough in most of the key positions ie chairman, coach, assistant coach. We are a club with no direction or future stratagy preferring to buy square pegs for round holes and i for one cannot see that ever changing whilst our current board are at the helm and we are sadly well behind teams such as Leeds, Wigan, Warrington, Saints and even Huddersfield and Hull KR. As the Brother put it so well, Hull FC is a shambles!

Not sure I agree with that statement anymore but they certainly was a few years back. Monaghan is the key to Warrington these days and they have plenty of cover in halves.

So if 'every player and his dog has rejected us' how are we going to sign the players you think we need?? Maybe we arwn't as big a name as some like us to believe.....

| Quote: The Brother "How long are we going to be taken for granted by the club,as much as they would have us believe everything is heading in the right direction its far from it. We have a squad that is so short of any real quality its untrue. We have lost calders,hall,yak,berro,burnett n now tansey must be 400k there alone and replaced with westerman,sharp,phelps so must be at least 200 k left there yet rule said prior to berro going we was at full cap,bull$hit imo. Our training facilites are a joke considering we have no stadium that we actually own its about time we had our training facilties instead of a day at ionains,day at boulevard,day fitness first,day university a club of our size should have there own training facilties by now instead of talking about it its time they delivered. We have the most inexperienced coaching duo's in agar,webster in super league and are our youngsters actually as good as we think compared to leeds,saints,wigan. Imo we are now behind wire,huddersfield,hkr who all have more ambition than we have and think it will be a long time before were challenging for honours again. Were been taken for granted and sold short when we deserve so much better for the way we back the club think this season may well be the one that breaks the camel back for a lot of fans'"

Finished 3rd- Warrington played 27 points 40
Finished 6th- Hull played 27 points 32
Only 8 points between them last year. Did Wire suffer the injuries we had?
Money doesn,t buy a successful team, Leeds tried for years until they found the right balance. Similar to Warrington the last two years. Wigan had it then lost it and re found it again, whatever IT maybe. Money helps I know but whatever it is that makes a team click and do well isn't bottled and sold or made public. A lucky run on injuries, high in confidence or no disruptive pi55 heads in the team does help create that special team than can compete with the best.

You do have SOME valid opinions,but as I have stated,some people seem to want to decry our club, before we have even started the season.
