What a shambles of a fortnight.

Since that positive performance at Saints, the bad news just keeps on coming. Picturegate, injuries to Crookes, Crooks, and Holdsworth, hideous 15 minutes vs Warrington, humiliation at Widnes, players tweeting inappropriately, now one of our first team being hospitalised after an accident.

The cumulative effect of these things is pretty challenging, even for a glass-half-full FC apologist like me. Not sure what can be done, but a defeat v Cas would be pretty damaging and that game now takes on some major importance IMO as an indicator of our direction of travel. The problem for the club is that they can't manufacture a good news story at the moment to jolly us along, we're not really into contract renewal season and the transfer market is non-existent.

Had 48 hours to recover from Saturday night, but frankly, still sed off. Really hope the players take it upon themselves to galvanise and bring a performance, but the tweets to me indicate an element of trouble in the camp. Feeling pretty out of love with Hull FC right now. I'll be there Friday, but more out of a sense of duty than anything else.

I couldn't agree more and I feel exactly the same I thought all of this sort of drama was behind but we seem to be just going round in circles.

I expect a Hull win by 20 on friday.

If it makes you feel any better. I felt sick for 2 days after the Salford defeat and we are used to losing. keep the faith.

It doesn't. When Hull "3 from 14" KR fans bring sympathy, it's a sad measure of how bad things are.

It's gonna be even worse on Friday because I'm gonna have had the chance to watch the opening two NRL games before we kick-off.
I'm gonna get p!ssed in town Friday tea-time.
Get in the Kingston Suite about 7pm. Slurp a couple of large whisky's down then sit back relaxed and watch the game.


If were losing by more than twelve by half-time I'm gonna fook-off and get some more beer.

Hire Billy Smart as operations manager.

Its been a bad week but not the end of the world , well not quite yet

, hoping for a massive response from the players on friday.

Im absoloutly fecking livid about all this twitter crap and tbh if I was Seymour I would be putting my fist through the noses of Nicklas and Crooks and as for some so called fans dont bother coming on friday unless your there to support everyone who is in a black n white shirt . I.a.k.o.w doesnt mean when its raining . !!!!

Also the numpty that gave azza a load of crap at his front door wont have gone down well

What was said on the tweets?

Pretty childish stuff!!

Agree about Seymour. If nicklas was much good he'd be playing not watching on tv taking the out of his parent club n who I assume still pay most/some his wage.

Arundel versus Webster and Carney, looking forward to that battle lol.

not sure what you're worried about really it's still early in the season, holdsworth will probably play friday and you'll do Castleford at home by at least 12 or 16 points and everything will be rosy again.

Very much doubt you will see it though...

Nicklass should have his contract torn up
Ridiculing your team mates on twitter is childish &
should not be tolerated - its not as if he's anything
other than very average

I'm afraid ill not be going on Friday night because of the start to the season we have had. I'm gutted that I won't be there supporting my club but I just can't bring myself to going because I feel like the club have lead me along with the stupid comments made. bigger, faster, stronger sounds like a quote from an Avengers movie. I love Hull but swore on Saturday night that ill not offer them my support until they can deliver on their promise.

After five games, and only one really poor performance?

I reckon that , that game has wiped god knows how many of the gate this week . Every one who took part last week has to shoulder the blame that includes the management side as well . I reckon that as a punishment Lee Radford should spar with any person who gives penalties away , or does some thing Fxxking stupid . Bet that would stop it

No after five years of the same old crap on and off the field. I have to choose where I spend my hard earned cash and I expect value for money. For the last five seasons I've not had this.

On Niklas, I'd sack him. Taking a pop at team mates on twitter regardless of how bad they are isn't acceptable. Besides which he's rubbish and won't achieve a fraction of what Seymour has in his career.

Must admit that was my initial reaction on Saturday. What a pathetic way of behaving as a so called professional.

The worrying thing is the Niklas comment just shows that some of the players have no respect for one and other. Not a great foundation for building a strong unified team. I fear that things will get worse before they improve (I hope I am wrong)

That the problem most of the time 2 to 1 ,
Lineham should take Carney and Arundle marks Webster, Horne / another should take the floating player
the defence is not working correctly yet, they seem to go up and then stop, letting the other team attack them which is not going to work, the centre/wingers are not getting the support from their second row/ loose forward so are been left out to dry
