If nobody quality is available then I'd honestly prefer us to continue with Seymour (with McGoldrick as back-up) and hope that someone quality becomes available mid-season. We have 'panic bought' in the past and it usually doesn't work out. Seymour is a limited player with many faults, but at least he is a settled in the side and we can make tactical changes to limit his faults (such as getting Holdsworth to do the kicking)

I posted the same weeks ago. Adam made a very bold statement.
He must learn that statements like that need to be backed up.
His passion is well meant,but he maybe needs to learn to keep his powder dry.
Lets hope the Club have another top signing to announce.If not the very ambitious 10k target for passes will never be reached !!

Rather have Mcgoldrick there than Seymour.

Before AP took over this forum went into melt down at times about the complete lack of info and news coming out of the club
Now all that has changed people are telling them to shut up FFS

I cant believe folk are telling Adam Pearson how to run a business, or how to handle fans, its laughable really, this club has made some historic and monumental steps forward since AP took over that will only bode well for the future of the club we all love but in the meantime we have to be patient and wait for the correct time the club wish to do their recruitment announcing which may not fit the remit of those who want their xmas gifts today but unfortunately I am sure the contracts these dudes sign are a bit more complex then the ones any of us have ever dealt with so lets just be patient and wait shall we.
For all we know there could be a couple of players on show today that are coming to the KC, thye fact is no one knows, however anyone who thinks that next years recruitment is over needs to bang their head because clearly it has not ... AND if Lee Radford says HE does not know whats going on because the security around any new players contract talks is so secure then I am damned sure no one on here does either!!
This season hasnt finished yet and the usual doom and gloom merchants are already writing next year off FFS when apart from Manu we are stronger already than we were last season

Have the Club stated that there will be no more signings

Plus the fact AP has made the Club stronger and it will keep going.The man as had lot to sort out since he took over, we should be grateful he bought the Club from the other lot.In life we all make statements and wish we never said it but" hindsight" is a wonderful thing.The man is trying to solve the problems that the Club have had for years let give him a chance before we start kicking off

The squad with a little new signings already will be better next year. There is still another 5 months before the start of the next season.

People don't need to panic, sure Pearsons comments may be a little correct but I have no doubt he will build a squad worthy of being champions. Its just a longer process then most think.

Be patient and just support the team. No need for all this unnecessary panic.

No. You may be onto something.

Bateman said he stayed at bradford,because despite a lot more money being offered by hull,he didnt want to move to a low profile club,and take a backward step at this stage of his career. You cant blame him can you.??

More voices in your head

I prefer John West. At least his pink salmon is the best.

Although you never met your father,Fred would have been so proud

benji marshall 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000% nailed on. FACT

We should stay patient, 2/3 more to come. Let's see where we are then.

Where's the fun in that?

It's fun to constantly moan about what AP did or didn't say and mean?

last night i was sat next to Benji Marshal on the dodgems, make of that what you will.

Good one

Some folk certainly seem to get a kick out of it.

from reading the most of the thread i get both sides of the argument we are stronger next year and we have not finished recruitment yet another top signing and a full back we would be up there with the best imo
but as for people saying AP is getting slated are been abit far fetched all people are trying to say is that some of the bold statements he has come out with are not happening which is true at the moment they are not but
obviously not getting chase and maybe falling through on bateman and maybe a few others he wants to look for the best back ups and they isn't a lot in super league that is available or better then them who he had in mind. im confident we will get another half and i want to know as soon as anyone who that is but until AP and PG find the right guy we will just have to be patient and see what happens. know one else is stronger yet and wigan are a lot weaker. we have made improvements so no need to panic

Firmly in the 'disappointed in signings' camo.

BUT firmly still in the 'In AP & PG we trust' camp.

Biggest single benefit for next season is that both of the above are a year in.

PG now knows the English game, other teams, referreing standards & interpretations and most importantly the abilities of his own players.

AP will have learned just how restrictive salary cap & quotas are - the paucity of talent & the ability of 'in demand' players to raise demands through the roof - and still be gazumped when he agrees to pay.

For the first time we have a coach who WILL improve young players, Green, Bowden, Crooks, Lineham & Kent are effectively NEW players - sure they will be joined by others on the production line.

I think some people's lives are depending on it.

100% agree every bit. Lets hope there are more in the Bag to strengthen us more, because at the end of the day we only want the best for our great club.

I think Pearson’s mistake, was not realising how many drama queens follow Hull FC

I heard a rumour today - Some-one said that I was going to be a Whino's (could be Wino) fan from now on cos I should follow a winning team. Now if only - I could consider it cos life is so much better.

Correct.
