Well I definitely knew it wasn't 154 times Freddie but one has to add a little drama to the drum roll, don't you think?


I stand by my statement with the help of a little poetic license.

Just checked him out.
He's in great form the old bUgger.
His opinion of our coach has sunk to a new low level it seems.

Some of his criticisms of Radford have been and still are completely valid, but it's his steadfast refusal to give him any credit for anything that makes me laugh. It's to be admired in a way, you certainly can't call him fickle!

I've said myself that I didn't think Radford was the man take us where we wanted to go, but he is starting to win me around again. I hope to be eating a big slice of humble pie by the end of the year. But not bumpy, we could beat Saints 50-0 in both finals and then go and beat Melbourne in Australia and he would still refuse to say anything nice about Radford.

Bumby is clueless, has his opinion, but will never change his mind, no matter what happens, spouts the same thing over and over again and once you have him beat ignores your reply. This forum is a better place without him, getting found out of the other forum for what he is.

He's dug a hole for himself that deep he will never ever dare stop shovelling.

I remember asking him, some time ago, what it was that Radford had done to him in an earlier life. He never replied.
Their paths must have crossed in the past for him to be so bitter.

He penned a pretty stupid petition asking for Radfords dismissal.
We then proceeded to have two of the best seasons in our entire club history
#madetolookstupid

Absolutely

Just had a quick shufty myself over there.
Old Bumpy still peddling the same s##t.
Can you imagine what it must be like to actually know him.

I have never met him but I know that some people on here have and by accounts he's a really decent guy. Just that Radford really boils his p*** for some reason.

Putting aside his views on Radford I liked him and had some pretty good exchanges with him. In particular when we attempted to pick our best ever historical Hull side he was one of the the best contributors to this endeavour. Understand why he was given his marching orders from the forum but personally was sorry to see him go.

Just had a peek on his forum and aside from the Radford broadside he did get one comment right. Hull to beat Catalans by 40 points.

He needs bringing back from the wilderness.
To be amongst his real friends.

With the selection of three pivots Sneyd(left) Westy (middle) Kelly(right)
our attack has looked sensational..

My only concern.. is when Westy leaves, I hope we dont return to two pivots...
I'd love to see Connor at FB, our attack would be even better -IMO..

Westerman was much more upbeat than i have seen him lately when we scored tries yesterday.
I wonder if he has changed his mind and decided to stay?

That would be great news. Maybe if the Thompson deal has fallen through they may be able to up the offer a bit?

I really hope Westy stays. Worth the money IMO

Yep to be fair he put a lot of work in on that one, knows his stuff on most things.

Denton watch today on the other forum, and he managed to get the predictable dig at radford on the fonua thread

Is that the Jaws music i hear?

sorry Seb Radfords teflon

no doubt you will be telling us for the next few weeks, am leaning towards hes on dodgy ground, but like you not happy about it,

I wouldn't lose any sleep if he was relieved of his duties.

I was always for keep Radford but after watching week after week poor rugby it is time for a change.

If you look at the last two season we have been no-where near good enough, only the fact that a lot of clubs have been really poor that we are where we are. It has been covering up the cracks, sorry Lee I like you but it is time to go.

Sack Radford with immediate effect, Ellis as interim to see if he can change things but go for Wane long term

I have thought that we should bring Wane in for months now. I salute Radford for the two cups wins but we are soft as a team.

We need someone like Wane to change our poor attitude to defending and change the mind set and culture i believe is terrible.

Willing to give him one last chance IF an attacking focused Assistant is employed (ideally an ex Scrum Half)

that said a major argument for keeping him over the years was that the 'players are playing for him' but I don't think that's the case now, I see a deflated, fractured dressing room.

Our home form is so poor it will also be starting to hit Pearson in the pocket if this continues, new signings only work so much in shifting passes, people need to feel entertained.
