But Leeds and Saints pass to their wingers, so Yeaman won't be no good. As he showed tonight he CAN'T pass to his wingman!

Only if you accept that the board won't do something to protect their investment.

This season? Nowhere.
Then we can have a large clearout for next season as a lot of the deadwood are OOC this year.

| Board not going to dissapear until we do. Simple. We need for starters new coach i.e Stephen Kearney, Des Hasler or Gary Kemble even. All players with experience of the black n white jersey. Then a new leader on the field Radford is ok but no Andy Farrell. After this the all important scrum half, Kath needs to dust of the check book big time for a big name. But i'm just worried now no coach with credability will come after 4 in 4 years??? Most of all i want the pride back the team is top 8 but play bottom 2!!!!

If only Kosh, the reality will be far different, we'll end up renewing contracts with most of those players and supplementing them with cast off's.

| I totally agree but also realise that board are not going anywhere unless a buyer with some big bucks comes forward, which for my money is unlikely to happen. I know we got to a cup final last year but I feel as a club we have gone backwards in the last few years. Yes we have had some world class players but teams like saints and leeds have them in abundance.

I'm not so sure. If we end up languishing in the lower reaches of SL, with no CC money and attendances plummeting, I think the board will act to protect their investment out of self interest.

Im not sure on that score tbh it seems everytime they(The FC board) make a poor choice that infuriates most FC fans the same fans seem to roll over waiting for their bellies to be tickled.

I have to admit that guff like this just makes me LOL. What exactly are the fans supposed to do? Not turning up is just about the only option, and as I said that could cause more harm than good.
This board only care about cash. The only place to hit them is in the pocket. Unfortunately, that will then make it harder to fix the problems with the team/coach as we'll have no cash to do so.

The board are going nowhere.

I know - I've been making that point the entire thread.
The problem is that ATEOTD you can't take money away from the board without taking it away from the club. And that's hardly going to make it easy to fix the problems we have, is it?
Like it or not, fans have the square root of fukall they can do about the board. And that's the same at [ievery[/i club.

You are right Kosh, but the Newcastle fans spit their dummy out at every given chance. A bigger club because of the nature of the sport and more money involved, but they still vent their anger at the owners, so why don't Hull fans do the same, you owe it to yourselves more than anything.

But the board and coaches are to blame
Firstly appoint a world class coach
Secondly get the balance of the squad right, 3 hookers in Berro,Lee,Houghton
too many utilites players Whiting,G Horne,Motu
Play people in there right position ie Radders
Replace the players we have lost Judas,Briscoe,Carvell
Sign a world class scrum half
I can see it why can't they

I agree, the others are to blame such as Kath and co but the players aren't pulling it together even though they stormed the first five games. Blame is across the whole club I guess.
