We will get another tonking in my opinion. Never before have I felt this negative about our team. Even in the pearman era I had a glimmer of hope as we had players who cared for the club and we played some decent rugby. All it is now is boring rugby and a p!5s poor kick to finish the set. I'm sick if the cr ap were turning out week in week out and the only class player we have left is now on the sidelines (Morrison). We need a scrum half desperately obst will give you the odd good game there buy he is not a general and won't organise our team. We have been sold short on the brough deal and I think this lack of ambition from the club is a factor in tronc leaving. Won't be going on Friday didn't go yesterday and will only go to the next home game because I've got a season ticket. We are becoming a joke club and selling our best players and not replacing them is not going to help us lose the tag. We need a big signing to lift the fans the players and the club in general. With the way it's going can't see us getting above 11th position in the league which is a major step backwards after all the hard work of previous seasons

Bit of belief from any SL side and Hull FC are beatable at the moment, Lauaki (suspension?) and Yeaman (injury) could be out.
It's as simple as JD and John getting the boys fired up and focussed midweek. I don't want to single individuals out as I think our slump is a psychological issue from disruption but I agree about Millard, lazy.
It can't be a positive factor when Tronc, Blaymire, Millard and co are trundling it in twice a game and Hendo, Morrison and Korkidas are breaking their backs. We've seen glimpses of our props this season but Korky deserves the key to the City.

I don't buy the 'worst feeling ever' stuff - sorry - I think people's minds are playing tricks with them.

When we're sacking players; awaiting creditors meetings; having points deducted in a relegation year and having to jump through hoops with the RFL to remain in SL (well there's one that hasn't changed), plus having played 15 games without winning - then come back and make these comments, otherwise, try and keep a little context to what we're saying please.

Truth is - for 6 weeks we thought we we're in for a better season even than last - now it doesn't seem so and that's why we all feel so disappointed - but we'll get over it - individually and as a club!

I can understand where you are coming from. WeStarted so well, the Leeds home game , Saints away and Half the Hull kR game spring to mind. THe Hudds, Warrington, Wigan and Celtic games were all big disappointments, losing is one thing , not competing is another. Not sure myself re Hull yet. Cannot see when the rollercoaster begins its climb from the current slide

Think for me it is the worst feeling because, as others have said, we dont really know what we are fighting, and whos on our side, JD, Sam and Korki aside of our first team currently i dont see the passion for the club as you did during the close to relegation years, the stadium for me has taken the whole focus of what we are doing, but if that means watching dire rugby and loss after loss for 3 years its rethink time for me??

Fact... we need people through the gates to BV in this season and next.
Fact... we need to finish 8th or above also.

.....and I know it was probably necessary, but the brough deal has left a bad taste in a lot of peoples mouths, in short very few people believe it could not have been sorted one way or another in the close season, not 2 months in to a new one!

I have never had a go at the club before and have defended it when others have, but at the moment im confused as to the reality, and all my instincts tell me we're skint and this is what we are stuck with.

Depends which Lauaki turns up; he certainly is a strong runner who can bust tackles and offload, but he's also a mentalist penalty machine. I personally don't think we've got the brains or the bottle to rattle him in the way that Leeds & KR did, so I can see him giving us real trouble. (his comedy punch-up with Burrow yesterday was a classic btw!

)

Likewise Manu - he's a class player who I think we'll struggle to contain.

I didn't go yesterday so I didn't see how dire we actually were, but on present form, I can't see us bothering Hull.

Whats he gonna do then? give give him a slap like he did Rob Burrow, what a hero

I think alot of people would like to slap slippery old moaning boy

Im on the negative side this week, and fear we'll lose could be a heavy loss.


It's my fav away game doubt i'll be able to make it either.

Sorry thats just how I feel, I see hull fc as more as a team and a unit than our club atm.

Who's that?

Burrow

Old head the ball gave him a right slap

I would say as a club that this is a period I expected us to go through after the emotions of the events of the past couple of years - there is a little bit of what you describe - finding a common goal and a common focus - but it will return and, imo, things will click into place - sometime in the near future!



Sorry if I'm bucking the trend - I've been through my rut and I'm now in 'backs to the wall mode' and am prepared to fight for my club rather then join in the general malaise that seems to have arrived with the Icelandic ash!

not from what i have seen of them this year they are not. did you watch them against salford or yesterday against leeds. don't think they are anything special. think yesterday was a definite improvement from when we played celtic. thought we were very strong down the middle. usual problem on the edge. will take a bit for cooke and the backs to sort themselves out but with the injuries hull have got and the suspension they might have think wakey can seek a result. here's looking forward to some good news shortly

Please read the AUP , The burning of the moderation team is strictly forbidden ....

SOME of the team mate will do for me.

hopefully Longy will be back, could have just about played yesterday, HOWEVER yeamo, O Meley Tickle and Radford picked up injuries yesterday

will bring Sam Moa in, would rather him play anyway

Trinity win!!!

Whats the prediction when the sun goes in and you sober up though.

Can't see us winning tbh. Away win. And Stevo will love it !!!!!!

We are away mate.

How's Cooke and King going for you?

What's your probabal line up?

King looked pretty good the last time I saw Trinity, running it in hard, at pace and playing the ball quickly, Cooke hasn't been bad but by the same token hasn’t done anything remarkable, perhaps he's saving it up for you lot.
