interesting listening to paul cooke on radio last night, when talking about structures and plays, radford, last, and cooke all decided that with donacsters partnership playing the same way will benifit both teams, the all agreed the way to go would be to impliment peter sharps attacking methods and structures, with their own methods aswell,
i know a lot of players say he was the best coach they played under in recent times, but think it shows under gentle and agar we had coaches who rarely brought the best out of players, mainly westerman, this kids been slated over the years for what, following their coaches instructions for the benifit of the team.
under sharp we were a very good attacking team and looking the same again.

With the possible exception of Kear, I think Sharp was the best coach we had for years. If Radders is following his methods, that will do for me

getting rid of sharp was like a microcosm for hull's history. just as things seem to be getting on the right track to make us one of the top 2 or 3 clubs, we find a way to mess it up

Watched the footy show and Cronulla seem well happy to have Sharp for this season.

yet Sharp was the coach who didn't want Danny Brough.

I guess there's good and bad aspects of every coach tbh

He was average while at Hull, and a bad influence.

Sharp told the players it was a clean slate with him after what had gone on with Kear...said there is the door for training and there is the one for pub and mucking about...Brough,jokingly,choose the pub one and sealed his fate and,tbh,wasn't missed at all.Sharp had us playing good rugby and defence and was harshly sacked with us in the middle of a horrendous injury crisis.

I would rather see us play exciting rugby & lose a few games trying, then play the way we have been the last few years because it became poor to watch. #FCthenewentertainers.

Maybe it's just me but Iwell remember Sharp's team playing some really dour stuff. It was Agar, bless him, that got FC playing well after John Kear left. John Kear actually stated that his team would go on a long unbeaten run, just after the chop. I went to Catalan's, away, which I think was one of Sharp's very early games in charge, at half time, I said to my brother, if this is the coach's tactics, we're likely to be bored to death. Just my opinion, I was never a fan, of his.

Mentioning the Catala away game previously, reminds me of a tale of Gwillym Loyd. The big cafe bar in the square, Perpignon, has the toilets downstairs. The sinks have just a spout for the tap. I was stood washing my hands and Gollum came up beside me and looked puzzled, no tap knobs. I told him it was a new fangled tap where you place your hands beneath the spout, the water comes out automatically. I left him walking around trying to get a tap working, there was a floor switch, beneath each sink!!!!!!!!! Priceless.
