You do realise thst your 1 of maybe 3 or 4 on here that thinks theirs no drama with the last the 2 seasons and these first 5 games? Knocker goes over the top , but your sickly support along
With a few others is just embarassing , Radford was never going to go from coaching east hull, amateur rugby league players, to coaching a super league team full of proffessionals, it was a pipe dream, thats failed from the start.Radford might turn into a decent coach , but lets not let him have his learning curve with the best squad we've had in years. He needs to go rapid, either fired or have the decency to walk.

| Maybe the comment was a tad over the top, but it wasn't aimed at that particular person just at their fans in general , got my sick sense of humour in overdrive, sorry to the easily offended none meant, anyway just watched cats v wolves was that any better than what we have been watching the past few weeks, in my opinion Widnes,Wigan and cas would have blown them both away, just hope wires are as good as that on Easter monday

You applauding posts from easthullfc is sickly, everyone knows hes so far up Radfords ring piece , hes never going to say anything negative about radford. Theirs not 1 poster on here who wanted radford to fail, but the facts are clear, hes failed for 2 seasons and a bit! Heres a positive for you, hes built a very capable squad, whoever takes over as no excuses, and im positive we can have a good season if the change happens swiftly

In the same manner you do when people voice their discontent.
You and a few others round on those who dare to disagree and feed off each other.
No one is perfect but don't try to take the moral high ground when you're just as culpable.

| Quote ="Wizard crane"The rest of Sl fans who read the comments on this site and on social media must thinking what the F@@@.Five games in two really good wins, two close defeats against two good sides one who demolished Leeds folllowed by one really poor showing and all of a sudden players like Pritchard have been slagged off and gone from hero to zero,player who is only here for the money and one said he is no better than Chris Green?? Carlos is very poor, Talanoa over night has become a poor winger and the rest are not much good either.It hats not a knee jerk reaction then i dont know what is.I really feel ashamed to be associated with these so called fans because without doubt we are a laughing stock. Dont get me wrong a performance like that deserves criticism but come on some of this is way out of order.I have relatives in oz who contacted me and said they were surprised to see these so called best supporters in SL turn on players with such hatred.I have watched supported this Club for over fifty years , stood in threpenny stand hearing fans telling players what they think but all done in good faith not at this level .I hope i am wrong but this weeks events will cost us big time, the players know that that showing was way off what they should be doing and without doubt their confidence if not already shot will have nose dived further and it will not be easy to bounce back.Like always its all Radfords fault and it did not take long for the knives to come out ,even after we scored 60 against Rovers all some focused on was the last 10 mins, even the Catalan game negatives were sought.The first four games saw some good stuff from us and until Widnes we still looked top 6 side at least. if we lose on friday then Radford will go then we decide who the next coach will be to turn on because thats the pattern we have set,even getting to finals is not good enough once they hit a bad patch'"
Some very valid points but do you not think that our fans are the way they are because season after season we are fed the same spin by the club but yet they fail to deliver season after season and it's been like it for about 10 years now so I think some of our fans have the right to be peeved off because this season looks like it's going the same way. Five games in may look like a bit of a knee jerk reaction but this feels all to familiar to not react like this. And for what it's worth I never wanted radford to get the job in the first place and I've always said he's not good enough for us and he's doing nothing to prove me wrong, he's just the latest in a long line of poor coaching appointments.

It's the internet. That's the natural habitat of the drama queen.
That said, I don't think there has been that much drama-queening TBH. Mostly it's been justified concern following a disgraceful showing at Widnes after two games chucked away through brainless errors. Some responses may have been OTT but it's difficult to deny that there are reasons to be concerned.

I said in a post he had no answer to what Widnes was doing to us Thursday night so don't say I'm up his , if he can't do the job I'm the same as you to admit it, but I'm not jumping on him or a player/players because they've made errors collectively, team sport deserves team roasting or praise.

So you are admitting he cant do the job? 2 seasons and a bit tend to suggest he cant.youve made ecuses after excuse of why hes failing. No the players aint tottally faultless, but when Radford said last week, we need to get back to basics!!!! I dont think anybody expected what we dished up friday, that was as basic as it comes, not one off load, no support play, no dummy runners, just basic rugby, as radford had suggested. The players have lost faith in him, majority of fans have. Talk of a new contract for Radford is a seriously worrying one, and id suggest Radford as something serious over Pearson if he gets one.we need a coach with some rugby league intellect , not a retired average second rower with little.

He & the players can do the job, but on Thursday not Friday they didn't , not a job they are capable of, rugby is basic but they need to be able to do the basics consistently, do you know they've lost faith in him? Because I know different, he won every honour as a player so he did ok for an average back rower. Write people of at your peril but I think you will look silly when the tide turns.

How do you know different, ehfcf? It would be great if you could tell us something concrete because otherwise the mutterings and assumptions to the contrary will inevitably persist - you know what this city's like! And that will only continue to undermine the team and particularly Radford.
So if you can confirm otherwise, this could help stop the rot.

Not really a theory is it this squad we have can do a job on any team in the comp, do you disagree? You don't even know what night they played pal, I support my team through good & bad I don't drop my lip gloss out my handbag when it goes wrong like certain fickle fans.

Don't disagree, we've got a great squad, and thanks must go to Motu, Adam and Radford for that. But now we've bought the Lamborghini, does the local bloke Pearson's employed to drive it know how to press the right buttons to keep it purring or is it too sophisticated for him?

The problem once again appears to be that we have a decent squad on paper, arguably our strongest in years, but that we once again fail to translate that properly onto the pitch. Those opening wins showed just how strong and deadly we can be but the next two showed that we still lack the mental toughness and game smarts to win the close battles. Then Thursday... well, how many times have we seen FC put in a woeful showing like that over the years? I've lost count.
It's all just typical Hull FC really and it doesn't seem to matter how many changes we make to the squad, we just can't seem to get rid of the Jekyll and Hyde nature of the team. Until we can get to the bottom of this we're always going to struggle.
The other thing to remember is that it's important that we as fans don't give up. Yes, we can moan about things on here when it's not working out (just as we should dish out the plaudits when it is working) but let's make sure we're all behind the boys this Friday roaring them onto victory.

The win in France has made it look like we are going to do the treble, then back down to earth against cas/Wigan we came back against Wigan & still lost which made it harder to take, but in a way I saw it as a bit of an improvement from recent seasons to claw back against one of the top sides, albeit Widnes was a total horror show, to some it seems we've lost everything & should sack everyone & bring all the kids in, but it's not as simple as that, we need & we will to for one make sure we never give in like that no matter how hot the opposition are playing, & kick on from it, the saying goes you hit your lowest before you go up, I see this is where we are the players & staff have had it out apologised & are putting it to bed & correcting it. It's sport we move on because dwelling on it solves nothing, just wish some fickle fans will see this.

| The problem is the same as other years . No decent halfbacks.
Sneyd is average . Price is past it .
We need a Gale , Lui or Sandow.
Until that is addressed we will never compete .

Sneyd is ok, but he plays well on the back of good go forward, kr have very good HBs in campese & kelly but gash forwards, Walsh is poor when his forwards are not are there best, that's usually the difference of your halfs looking poor.

Whilst I agree Sneyd is not tearing up trees we are a far worse side when he is not in the team.
6 is the big problem for us and whilst I have been critical of Pryce again we are a better team when he is on the field.
My problem with Pryce is he is lazy,misses too many tackles and his jumping out the line is rubbing off on Logan and costing us points on the right edge.
Michaels takes unfair criticism when he has to come inside to try and cover.
Wholesale changes are not necessary despite the heavy defeat at Widnes.Interchanges by Radford need to be better.Manu is playing too many minutes,and Pritchard is an impact player and should be used as such making the best of his off loading against a tiring defense and not as a starting second row.
If Pryce is not fit then Tiumavave will have to play 6 leaving the centre position open.
I don't want to see Yeaman back in the team as that is going backwards.I would rather move Talanoa to centre and bring in Naughton or Lancaster.

Talanoa will be lucky to play. Was in hospital till late the day after and apparently fell asleep in changing room and they couldn't wake him
Sounds like a couple of week job that!!

Tend to agree. Pryce has the class but no longer the physical ability to show it. But he's miles classier than Sneyd. If Sneyd can't take control of a game like for example Brown did then he isn't what we need. I'm willing him to impose himself but even against Widnes when we were steamrollering them in the first 15 mins there was no spark or guile or imposition. Nothing. It sounds tough but it's only comment based on what I see.
