For goodness sake man,get over it.
There are a lot more deserved people in this world to want to see rot in hell,than a rugby league player who went from one Hull club to an other.
Years ago i might add.

If you can`t start a post with something more constructive than calling someone an idiot then you really need to sit back and take a good long look at yourself.
Behind a keyboard you can act as hard as you like, you still come over as an ill educated smackhead. Keep your hand on your d*ck where it has better results and leave the keyboard alone.
Read and digest the post, think about your reply and then think about the `replacements` we brought in and tried.
I never said he was to blame for the last five years, I stated he was the catalyst for it.... simple enough for you?
I stated he was responsible for our `Demise`, at no time did I state he was the reason it has lasted so long.

Interesting post that. The specific point I've quoted reminds me of the Hull KR TV interviewer who supplies common sense answers within his own questions so Sandercock or the player are reduced to merely offering agreement.

'So Craig, such-and-such this week, they're in really good form so I guess you'll be looking for a strong 80-minute performance from the team?'
'Yeah, that's right Brendan...'

Okay, I don't think CS enjoys the media side much, but if he was given an open question 'Your thoughts ahead of this week's match?' it might lead somewhere [ia bit[/i more interesting.

I've said it before and I'll say it again.. Paul Cooke is a dispicable 'human being' who deserves everything he gets.. And that's nothing to do with rugby. I never will respect him he's simply a waste of skin and oxygen!!

sandy's interviews are great. he starts off with the excuses ........ too many internationals, too many kids, refereeing decisions etc. and then gets on the defensive and says he can't answer any questions after suffering a "heartbreaking defeat".

Comedy gold

I think I love you



Maybe an approach for RH would be for them to tee up a couple of articulate and sober fans in advance, say a miserable fecker and a club apologist, to call in post match to get the ball rolling. Someone independent (e.g. Cooke, but not necessarily him) to pitch in. A presenter there to moderate/summarise, not stick their two penneth in. No texts to be read out of the facile type you describe above. The post match interviews are the same every week, but I wouldn't expect much insight from these beyond comments on rotation, injuries, referees etc. What I would like is better stuff in the week - features on the academy set-up, say, who's emerging, pathways to first team. Maybe a weekly player profile - say Danny Houghton on his journey to pivotal first teamer, what he learned off Berro, insight on his dedication to fitness etc.

Exactly, one very basic and obvious technique. Sports Tonight Live - the Kelvin McKenzie venture with Mike Parry on the front - does this, and Setanta Sports did it previously when they had a station on Sky. Before the season starts they go round all the clubs in the Football League, compile a contacts list for each of them - fan reps, website editors, journos etc - who they know they can call up immediately after a game or when a news story breaks. They know not enough people are watching to generate a high enough number of decent callers so they do it artificially in this way, in the hope of building reputation and audience to the point where people are actually calling in. I do bits for Sports Tonight and I know the day before it happens that I'll be "phoning in" to take part, and I'll be introduced as somebody who has "phoned in to have their say" when in reality they took my contact at the start of the year, added it to their database, and then ring me after relevant matches I've been to.

Is it beyond Humberside to have a list of ten frequent contributors for FC, KR and City who they can phone after a game for an articulate opinion?

Barnet FC your the man.

im no lover of RH having a list in one sence is a good idear but if the same so called callers are on all the time they ld have listeners saying its hogged by the same people all the time. If i remember right thats what happen with peter adamsons programme

Can we also have a list of people we do not want on?
