Also disappointing that some players decided not to walk round and thank the remaining fans. Although some may have made the right choice as Houghton resorted to telling one fan to f off which obviously upset the gentleman (although he was being a douche)

I don't think that was really his point though. Lancaster wasn't injured initially when he was dropped.

People say about Radford's blooding of youngsters, but realistically he only does it when he's forced to because of injuries.

Yes he's since been injured in an U19 game, but he wasn't injured after he'd played excellently at Wigan, he was just dropped back to the U19s. If you were him would it not be a bit galling to score twice away from home for a team that can't score, then get dropped and sit and watch the two wingers be used to drive the ball out of their own 20?

We're absolute dog shiit. Worse than we ever were under agar. Worst attack in SL by some way. Watching wakey last night they are much better than us with ball in hand as are leigh and probably bradford. If pearson doesn't act and bring in a new coach then I genuinely fear for our SL survival.

No doubt now we will finish outside the 8 and unless radford goes it will be bottom 2. If pearson doesn't act I will have to believe that his motives towards the club are in question as it's obvious to everyone radford is so far out of his depth that even someone who has never seen the game in their lives could see it

This.

Very well put!



You can only imagine what the fringe/young players are thinking when they watch the likes of Yeaman plod about collecting their pensions.

He is garbage, been rubbish for two seasons now. Time to get rid.
Tonight was appalling, if it wasn't for having to justify my season pass I wouldn't be going back.

This.

And this. Oh dear.

The loss of possession twice at the play the ball was disgraceful . We hardly saw this when striking was allowed .

An utter disgrace, no doubt the happy clappers and turnaround boys and girls will be out in force

I am only attending due to having a season ticket, the club is a laughing stock, anyone who thinks otherwise needs brain surgery

It sounded like Huddersfield were very good tonight maybe they deserve a bit of credit.

Really??????

They were garbage

A wind up surely, Hudds got the business done but it was nothing special.

Never got out of first gear, Bab. And don't say we were out-enthused, Hudds didn't need nor display any of that, either. Coasted along in neutral, in fact, and still had 10 times the horsepower and nous than us.

They sounded ok .. (but then I think atm we make anyone sound "OK"icon_wink.gif

The only time they where deemed "good" was when th blunderside comentators where making up excuses while waiting for Radford...

I think he's smelling the coffee - and despairing as a result.

Seeing them hand on hips limping slowly to a scrum 30 mins in to the game by ALL said it all

They did the bare minimum which wasn't much considering our errors and non existent attack gave them the game.

You knew what I meant, funny boy!

Arms like Inspector Gadget has big Adam.

who the he.ll are the happy clappers?

Hudds looked way faster with ball in hand , Line speed , PTB , ect . The sin bin and the penalties alone would have been more than enough for a decent team to put Hudds to bed . We are really that bad .

something has to be done, and quick

Everything about the club currently looks amateur. I really had faith that the Pearson regime would bring a modern forward looking scientific way of working. After all this is a guy that has experience in sports management. It doesn't matter if he has a lack of knowledge of RL, he is experienced in running professional clubs. When he arrived and talked about under investment in the back room off field areas I believed there would be a marked improvement. All I can see is money has been spent on gyms. I have real reservations about how FC strength train anyway and in reality you can train in any gym. It doesn't really matter if the kit looks 25 years old, as long as it is safe and works, it can be used for effective training.

Where money needs to be spent is back room staff that have the best knowledge in injury prevention, conditioning and nutrition. I'm afraid the back room staff of FC would struggle to impress Championship teams.

I want AP to succeed and desperately hope things change and he becomes a legend of the club, taking us to great things. This is never going to happen until big decisions are made about the structure of the club from youth development up.

I'm afraid the club Hull ethos has been a disaster, there are a number of reasons I disagree with it but the biggest issue I have is the mentality this breeds. There really is a lack of believe in how great this club and the city in general can be. We are great in Hull of being expertly modest. This is a massive problem when you are trying to be the best you can be and better than the rest. I don't see any of our youth players having the attitude that says I am better than you and better than anything in this league and I am going to prove it by showing you every week on the pitch. Where is that confident arrogance that players like Sinfield and Cunningham and Briers and Long had in their prime. What Hull player had that aura about them. The last I can remember was Schofield and he left for what he thought was greener grass. I don't want a team or arrogant idiots, I want a team of winners. The club Hull ethos doesn't work because the mentality of Hull as a city finds it uncomfortable to act and believe like that.

Things must change, a winning mentality needs driving deep in to the club. If the best spend 5 hours extra a week at training on their technical skills I want to see the youth players pushing for a first team place spending 6 or 7 hours doing extra training. Does that happen at the moment or do the young players feel that just making the FC squad is their ultimate achievement.

I console myself that things can only get better, I'm not sure at the moment.

Bit shattered after that to be honest. 240 mile round trip 40-odd miles of it roadworks as it has been for the last 2 years. Diverted on the way back through Donny thanks to M18 closure. And in the middle of it a "performance" that lacked aggression, guile, desire, skill and competence from the coach down through most of the players.

Not sure what happens from here.
