Got to see neither Hull team covered themselves in glory.What a state of affairs.

and least it wasdn't a 'dubious' refereeing decision that took saints god given right to win away from you this time. now jog on

Well put Grasshopper.

we could still be playing now and wouldnt have scored lol

Saints, Leeds and Hull FC have always had the best youth production lines IMO, but were a few years off that standard yet, it takes time to get the top youngsters coming through like the mentioned clubs have because when a top youngster shows up everyone wants him obviously,
hopefully over the next couple of seasons we might start to see a few more home grown kids coming through the ranks.

I did feel for you yesterday.
Having watched us start the season getting thumped by all and sundry (including yourselves) I know what a long afternoon it can feel like.

But to be positive, lots of Quins fans were calling for the head of our coach and predicting gloom and doom. Then a couple of key players come back, something clicks, and we're winning again. I'm not saying we were brilliant against FC, but there were definitely flashes of the old magic. So keep the faith, these things can turn around.

A much bigger positive were the Rovers fans we met in the pub afterwards. Still up for a good laugh after watching their team get a hiding. Real credit to themselves and the club.
Wish you all the best for the rest of the season.

As usual I leave it overnight before posting. It was painfull to watch but a master class from Leon Pryce A great saints performance well done to them espescially the defence Rovers were lucky to get nill. It hurts but hey I am still alive no one is hurt & we will have another chance. Lets not panic but instead take the next two weeks to rest & re group. Give the boys a chance to make amends. Lucky for me I am away in Egypt for two weeks rest in the sun I will be ready for the rest of the season when I get back. Any posatives for Justin to take? at least I dont think his house has been burgled while he was away.
Anyway I am a rovers supporter & Iam stuck with it. I will still be watching when this lot are long gone(health permitting) I am in it for the long haul but would like this lot to learn & improve.

Point taken about the big picture, and I wasn't just assuming that a new coach could come in and transform HKR into champions or whatever. My point was more that Morgan, in my personal opinion as an outsider (I'm not a HKR fan), is a limited coach whose reputation has been based on a couple of good cup runs, and that a new coach might simply be a way of stopping the club's seemingly reverse momentum, at least in the short term. I bow to your superior in-depth knowledge of the club's shortcomings, though.

I would agree it takes time and it will be great for HKR and internationally once your own club's hard work begins to bear fruit.

I think in recent years we have been forced to look to our young players more and more due to the salary cap and also our stadium plans. Spending big bucks on Aussies and the like doesn't do much for the bank balance and also doesn't do much for the international scene. Our present Chairman is a local lad and he has stated quite openly that he would love to see the side full of not only British lads but local lads, which I suppose is the dream of most clubs - or their fans, at least. When players are home grown or have grown up in the sport through the club's ranks then that gives an extra boost to the support and also from the players to their performance.
