| Not looking forward t next week's match. The time has come I think - no point in waiting for the ship to sail. Appoint a new coach now then at least there's a shot of recruiting some talent. The Red and Whites have Mike Smith in Oz at the moment scouting for new players, if we wait any longer next season will be written off as well. Action now I say. I've posted earlier on the "If........."page on my thoughts...Justin Morgan all the way for me. He is a coach that can attract some good names from both sides of the pond and that really is half the battle.

Why are you pretending to be a Hull fan?
Quote ="Davey999 a few months ago"Hudgell certainly has long fingers.... He could also be reeling Justin Morgan back to continue his good work after the dismal year we've had! Chester isn't ready yet in my opinion. Still think its a mistake that Morgan was let go - he should've been given the chance to finish what he started. Had he been here this past season then we would've made the playoffs as that was standard. Interesting to see how the appointments play out. ....'"

| Quote ="UllFC"My patience has ran-out with Gentle. Last season I thought he did a good job considering the injuries we had, and the makeshift squad with players like Tony Martin making up the numbers.
but this season has been an absolute disaster, our worst since 2009 IMO, and not even a CC win should be allowed to cover up how bad the league campaign has been.
His signings have been awful , Arundle & Crooks aren't even making the team, Galea wasn't needed, Ellis has been average (but at least improving) Johnson is a decent squad player but not exactly one that sets Super League alight, only Holdsworth & Miller have been positive additions. Players like Aspinwall, Martin & McGoldrick were dismissed as being fill-in players last season, but we got a lot more out of them than this years signings!
the forwards are too light, and players we previously relied on heavily like Yeaman, Lynch & Whiting are another year older and haven't reached their usual standards.
our attack is not better than the Agar days, and at times it is even worse as we don't have the 'pass it to Manu and hope he knocks 3 players over' tactic to use anymore.
Gentle seems incapable of motivating his team to play 'run of the mill' SL games, we are capable of beating the likes of Wire, Leeds & Catalan....but then the week after lose to Widnes, draw with London etc
I think Pearson has to act soon or next years pass sales will be dire, the 'new dawn' hype has kept the pass sales going the last 2 years...but they've milked that for all its worth.
The only way to get passes up is to bring in a top-level coach who has a proven pedigree of winning things, and some genuine top-class international players (and by international I mean current Australia/New Zealand/England stars not someone who was on the bench for England Knights once

Exactly what I would have posted if I could be assed to type that much. great post

| Sean Long's available now if you want a half back coach.
He coached Houldsworth at Salford and improved him, he's your best half anyway.
Your forwards need to improve but you need a quality coach to get your half backs going. Once they're fixed the with the backs you have winning will become a regular thing.

Think we need Longy like a hole in the head, don`t get me wrong, good player in his day, but not exactly a steadying influence.

No mate, you always say i turn up when we lose well i didnt did though it seems im more right with every passing day as usual when it comes to Hull FC.
Just what is your actual point of view on FC issues apart from being a rather pathetic Seb basher?

| When you look at the gates this weekend and see that Wire only got 9830 (despite the KR hordes ) , that Huddersfield now top of the table got 5700 , Widnes 4870 and cashed up Salford 2200 it is clear that by comparison we have been punching and continue to punch so far below our weight that it's embarrassing. Unfortunately the squad and perhaps other parts of the organisation simply do not match up to the great support and , by definition , the expectation it creates. There can't have been many more important games than this weekends semi. Even a success though will potentially raise some pretty difficult questions as to why we haven't done better in other games.

| That would be the case if the 50% rule was still in force.
But it's not, every club can spend the same apart from a few extra k for internationals.

| I'm not talking just about money. Under whatever regime we have we just don't seem to be able to match performance , execution and results with our ambition and clear potential which suggests that , especially bearing in mind your cap comment , we are not good enough in any department apart from possibly merchandise but even there it's the fans blind optimism that gets us buying the "jam tomorrow" shirts every year. Don't know what the answer is it's been the same for so long now.

| I would make the players watch the 2005 & 1982 Cup Finals, that would show them the desire and passion for the shirt that is needed to win. Some of the players now cant be d it has showed in the last few games. Same old story really.
