Quote ="jordanp"It took us a while to get to the stage we were, we were well above Warrington at one point, we were happy to exist in SL and we didnt spend enough to replace Cooke properly which was the catalyst for a massive downfall, as it stands we are not doing enough to get back to this stage, probabally becuase of the franchise system and the fact that Hull fans will buy season tickets and turn up regardless.
Im not saying that this isnt a sensible approach, and there is a very good argument that living within your means is much better long term then going for broke in the hunt for throphies, but we will just gave to face up to not being able to compete with the likes of Saints, Wigan, Wire and Leeds, becuase we simply cant.'"
well hindsights a wonderfull thing...i think the club would cover there ars-s a bit better these days.i disagree with the ..not doing enough.. bit i honestley believe we are not that far off competing with the big four on a regular basis.a couple of quality signings and injury free run and ive no doubt we,d be up there.what we lack compared to sts etc is strength in depth.thats what we really need to work on.and im sure the club have this in hand.
