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.

AP is very foolish if he keeps him on

LR always said he would walk - well WALK

HE HAS TO GO - NOW !!!!!

Never ever ever have I been sure of something as this. I don’t live in the Radio Humberside and HDMail bubble

I get to watch occasional matches so I can tell you it’s as plain as the nose on my face that he has to leave NOW

That’s why Phil Clarke always doubts us
Because he knows
He knows LR and AL are totally out of their depth

RESIGN or FIRE THEM

NOW !!!!

Champagne or Pomagne?

Wow...how a topic thread can have such a swing.

under Radford our last 6 league games performances each year have been

2014: won 1, drew 2, lost 3
2015: won 2, lost 4
2016: won 3, lost 3
2017: won 2, lost 4
2018: lost 6

Most teams try and peak for the playoffs, we seem to try and peak for the Challenge Cup Quarters and Semis in June

wane.ha ha ha ha.dont need that deadbeat.some real jokers on here.

There are so many stats
Penalties
Errors
Record defeats

In any other business he’d be gone !!!!

I really now question AP

LR is finished - he’s garbage but the question is WHY has he not been relieved of his post ?

I work for a Union pension in Melbourne
Great employers for sure

However LR would have been moved on by now

It’s called a Performance Plan

You get 2 of them and then you’re offered the chance to resign before they fire you

You would resign

Took a friend to the game tonight. For a few weeks now he's been murmuring that he's going to get a pass for next season for him and his wife.
As we left tonight he commented, think that tonight has convinced me not to waste my money.
Wonder how many others feel the same now after watching the same old dross for the last few weeks and seasons.
Tough choices to be made but that's as far as it goes now for Lee now imo.
See the season out, then leave with reputation in tact.

Absolutely gutted by tonight's performance. Something gotta change. Some players are either not fit or not going at it 100%. Yet radford still keeps picking them.

Maybe Radford should step down and become the Director if rugby and let someone else sort out what he obviously can’t.

radford doesn't believe he shoulders any blame for our poor performances. I've not heard his interview after tonight's game but last time out he just blamed the players and took no responsibility himself. No wonder the players are putting in the performances they are. Who wants to work for someone who publicly slags you off on a regular basis?

He's too strong of a character for that to work. He would soon fall out with a Head Coach if he was say storming into the dressing room, or giving one of his soundbytes to the press.

Bringing in someone more junior as an Assistant could work, I think the club have been crying out for an Attacking coach for about 15 years now. McRae and Kear were the last ones to play a brand of Rugby id describe as having attacking flair. The coaching staff have also spent most of their careers at Hull, its a very insular bubble.
