Anyone fancy us in this game? 16 weeks since we beat a team above us, could it be our lucky night? Sadly Agar has a ready-made "distraction of uncertainty around his position" excuse, but maybe the team will want to display their support of him.

Hoping it will be a close and entertaining game, as we are probably missing only Long, Gleeson, and Moa. Think the crowd will be poor though. I'd be tempted to stay away but only 1 more home game until February after this one, so feel compelled to go.

Mixed views from out lot, personally I do not think we will win this one....

Not sure if it is just me but I am glad we only have 2 more home games, first time ever that I really feel fed up with it and will be glad of the break

So realistically we are only missing Moa then as the other two dont count?

Why not? They're on our salary cap and unavailable, aren't they?

I think it has got the makings of a really good game. Catalans are well in the hunt for a top 4 finish so wont want to faulter. Hull will have one eye on that coveted 6th spot after sundays semi-final. Finalists traditionally lose matches around finals so Leeds are catchable whilst i dont expect Cas to win another game all season to be honest.
All in all i am sure that Rich Agar sees the opportunity to see Hulls season on season progression continue, and what better way for the players to show their support for him than to perform well on friday.

That's cheered me up after AP pi$$ed on our bonfire this morning - comedy gold, cockle.



I think it might be a decent game too - either close, or entertaining as Catalans are one of my favourite teams to watch.

You never know, Richard Agar might confound some of us, and 'throw caution to the wings' and play a couple of youngsters, as a 'swan song' so to speak [just on the off chance, that he may be going to pastures new. Even though those in the know, are claiming that journalist @ the Guardian is/was mistaken.

Think this will be the poorest crowd in the league for many years...school holidays, poor form, no away support, Agar still here...it will of course be announced as 11,500+ regardless though.

Finally in sport tomorrow: #HullFC say [uit's business as usual [/uas Adam Pearson & Richard Agar both deny the coach is leaving for #Wakefield.

Meh. Away win, then.

He better bloody not given the rebuttal in the paper today.

certainly wont be business as usual for me..cos the first time in a long time..i wont be going through choice.

Think we might win but for the very first time I would not be disappointed with a hammering.

It might be 'business as usual' for those two, but what does it mean for the poor souls that have to pay or have paid to watch Hull this season? Do it mean a game from Hull, that may be easily forgotten when it is finished? It may now look that way, if Adam Pearson and Richard Agar are to be believed.

It lloks like it will be no season pass for me next year.

Couldn't get excited about the Wigan game and same goes for Friday.

couldnt agree more, dark days indeed

With cats and wire still to come, we could end up with a truly dire home record this season

Think we may be missing Fitz too.

Was discussing this with someone today, I have a feeling we are going to either win all 4 or lose all 4

If it's either/or then I know which my money is on

We'll play well for a bit maybe take the lead but not take our chances, or make a come back so we are in with a shout till about 68mins then do something stupid and go 2 scores behind.

Coach will say we have some positives to build on etc and there are some encouraging signs blah, blah. Some good signs for the next game... yawn... bullcrud....

So not all bad then. At least it won't be that slow in the middle and Westerman will get a chance to get his hands on the ball. Still don't think it will persuade me to go though.

Not a betting person but would say we will win 1 (possibly) out of our remaining 4 games, barring Crusaders the other 3 are out of the challenge cup and only have the playoffs to aim for, Wire are a definite, Catalan need to implode and lose all their gaimes and Cas, well they have a better coach

. Crusaders may be out of it but their players are probabily going to want to put themselves in the shop window for new contracts elsewhere so I don't think this will be an easy game for us.

Think we will win our next two then lose our last two. We won't get 6th Leeds have Cas at home, Harlequins away, Wakey at home which they will win then Hudds away last game so its impossible even if we win all four.

Hope we hammer them.
