In 2020 Radders had our most expensive squad ever and I dont remember many injuries or bans but we till werent delivering and it was his 6th season in charge, so while current performances are worse, its not a fair comparison

Really it’s not about comparing coaches, it the absence of our leader, the silence is deafening.

Think [url=https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/sport/sport-opinion/painful-hull-fc-realisations-hit-9210309Dans article[/url is pretty damning and sadly and more worryingly is on the money.

seems to be good enough for Pearson and Clark
How some on here can say changing the coach will not make a difference is ludicrous.
We are second bottom with one last minute win against a London team who are tryers but are getting hammered every week by every other team apart from us.
This team could manage themselves and couldnt be worse than they are now.
Its a coaching and discipline problem and thats where Smith has failed miserably.
The players are hardly the best in the world but they have definitely downed tools and its Smith who is the problem.

Are you counting the tinker in that comment as we do have someone who can replace him for the rest of the season and cant do any worse than Smith

Sao was an absolute disgrace yesterday. TS saying his foul play comes from fatigue, he took the kicker out after 25 minutes on the halfway line which lead to a penalty and try. He is a liability, never a back rower, isn’t fit enough or mobile enough. It’s as if he wants to get banned. Should have seen red yesterday too. He should be fined for misconduct it was that bad and blatant. Get rid of the clown.

As for Jack Brown the pudding. TS once again said he reverts back to old habits when he’s tired, like lifting the leg. He’d only just come on. Does it every game. Get rid, whoever wants him are welcome to him. Penalty machine like Sao. Both 3 each yesterday, Sao probably double that in foul play that didn’t get picked up.

Cam Scott 10 missed tackles. I like the kid but that is terrible. Hes meant to be helping young Charles out, if anything he’s worse in D than him.

Morgan Smirh in the warm up was putting high kicks up to McIntosh and Scott for catching practice. 5 on the bounce either went out in touch on the full or he spooned well away from them. Obviously didn’t learn his lesson for the game. Kicking out on the full which led to a try.

Feel for the likes of Charles and Moy, having to play with the shower of e around them. Charles getting flattened by Lolohea and no one ran in to protect him. Similar happened with Moy second half. Charles looked battered after 50 minutes, was having to peel himself off the deck.

Clearly not otherwise they’d be taking matters into their own hands on the pitch & ignoring Smith since he’s so useless. Instead they’re plodding along, not bothering just as they have in the past knowing it’s the coach who gets the chop & not them. They should be ashamed to show their faces in public but sadly this isn’t the case.

It won't be as bad as that.

For me the fixture has another gallant loss written all over it.

Moy and Charles could be ok in the future but there is nothing in their performances that will alter the trajectory of Hull FC. I think heaping pressure on them will be counterproductive at this stage and clearly are not ready for SL. Scoring Moy and Charles in the HDM higher than the others is building false hopes and pressure on two young kids. Both are really slight in stature and easily over played so keep them out of a poor team and get them ready if you can turn this situation around. Poor management by Smith and co.

At least we give youth a chance…noticed you didn’t say nothing about Lewis Martin who isn’t much older.How do you know we are going to over play them?Just another one who is spouting bolloxs to suit their own narrative…..oh and yes…you are a tit

Another alter ego I’ll have to add to my foes list.
Don’t worry about our young players,we’ll manage them.Something your club don’t have a lot of experience of.

Glad that some of the younger players are getting a chance.Certainly deserve it.

Who was the last international you brought through to that point? Horne? Yeaman? You've got a history of getting future superstars bigging them up then systematically destroying them. Lane was going yo be a future captain, Davy Litten was being lauded last year, now the majority want rid of both.
Your youth will go one of 2 ways, either struggle and be bit part / championship players or be good and leave.

Think you forget this is Smiths second season here and based on team performance,poor recruitment and results during his time here he deserves to be sacked.
The point i was trying to make was if we were without a coach, the players or in fact an amateur coach could not have done any worse than Smith.
we dont know what happens in the dressing room but the lack of real effort on the field seems to demonstrate that the players have had enough of Smith.
Whether thats the way players should react is debatable but one thing is clear Smith needs to go.

Cruelly transparent.

When was last time you brought a young player through apart from the gob£hite lewis.As for youth….we play ours…what about you???oh yeah…you buy…you’d sooner buy Burgess and Reynolds than back your youth

is pearson really backing youth or has he had a lot of loyal supporters pants down,hes no choice but to play them

Majority want rid of Lane & Litten??
Where’s that come from?
Apart a handful of posters on here being hyper critical of lane
I don’t know of anyone that wants them gone.

If anything , Fans would be more inclined to see Litten back at in the 17 .

big mistake not to play Litten at full back against Huddersfield and move Hoy to six to partner Charles.
After all when Walker is fit he will play full back and Hoy will either be moved to six or out of the team so would have been a good time to try out that combo.
Something new needs to be tried as Smith as a halfback is just not good enough

I think we'll persevere with Smith in the halves until Trueman is back . Isn't is twice now Hoy has had the shepherds crook and dropped from the team ?

Tex Hoy's dad not holding back in replying to the club's Instagram posts on the game

"No structure, no systems chopping and changing playing mind games, good way to coach a team" [followed by a thumbs up and a middle finger salute

"Lets see how many of the off contract players resign if the out of date no structure no systems bloke playing mind games with players the club and media is still there"
