Ok fair enough but wasn't you told in confidence or did he insist that you pass it on via the message board? Seems to me that you just want everyone to know that you're "in the loop"
Btw what do you want to show me?

My guess is a Lee Radford friendship band and a Lenny's loyalty card.

I don't drink.

prove that I do? & I will prove that I don't?

Difficult call on Crooks. To often though players in Hull, both FC and KR, have had a break through season and then drifted into mediocrity. Is it something to do with mental attitude, thinking they are something better than they really are. Do we as fans big these players up to much in the gold fish bowl that is Hull RL. They then coast for two or three seasons living with a celebrity status, at which point the game has passed them by and they are average pro or even semi-pro players.

I can see what you're saying with this. I would also like to say that it is probably also to do with how coaches handle these players after that breakthrough season. Do they maybe put too much pressure on them? "You had a great first season so I expect you to be even better this season."

It's far too early for people to be writing off Crooks though. Players have dips in form and can bounce back. Maybe he was more suited to Gentle's tactics and training methods and hasn't adapted as yet to Radders methods?

You seem to be in a minority of one who thinks you don't talk rubbish.

Finding it difficult to understand why anyone would feel the need to comment on someones statements that are full of such obvious bull, guess I've just done the self same thing though....

Maybe be a coaching issue, but it does seem a particular problem in Hull and with a number of different coaches at both FC and KR.

I wonder if that's maybe to do with the current status of the two clubs. It's perhaps easier for a successful team like say Wigan to bring youngsters in and nurture them over time whereas there's more pressure at FC and KR that they be an instant and consistent success once they make the breakthrough.

Agree that this could be an issue.

There's only 1 Sean Long....

I personally don't ever think Crooks was that good. He just had a very lucky first season where everything him and Lineham touched turned to gold. You could see him absolutely ting himself at Wembley and somebody should of helped him but they never did and now I think he even doubts himself so he's lost that edge that was in effect his good luck and is now just bang average.

bit harsh imo

Hasn't he been 'gaining minutes' at Doncaster? Hadley hasn't been injured lately has he? IF what you're saying is true Radford should have had faith in Dean & played him, whats the point in them going to Donny if they aren't going to get their chance here when it arises.

He was in talks with us for a role like brett hodgson is doing with shaul..but with our young halfs..but with his life the way it was AP didn't want anymore dilemas at the club..& hasn't the things I've posted in the past happened? Like 2 lads been sacked or radders after an outside back & prop when fans thought recruitment was over? Or even miller starting Fri? Or am I making it all up?

you should be preparing your excuses for tomorrow night Lee.

What stand you going in my mate?

aww bless, same old shoite. You don't have to go to games to be a supporter.

What you on my case for all off a sudden?

Yes you do. Supporters support by attending. Your just a fan, there's a difference.

not on anyone's case, just a bit bored of cylon apologists, one username dies, another is reincarnated.

why you got an issue with me?

I have no issue with you or anyone..I put a few posts on here as anyone does..but if I've mentioned radders you've been negative..

that's bullshine, I've been to many games over the year, my career has forced my hand and I live elsewhere, no less of a supporter than anyone.

my Aunt has been dead for over 10 years, she went to games home and away, she is still a supporter.

some people have some very shallow ideals, it's a little sad.

I have a season pass but haven't been able to make it to a game yet. Am I a supporter or 'just' a fan?
