I will be very underwhelmed and slightly concerned if he is announced as our only conditioner for next season. Lets wait till all the bits are slotted into the jigsaw and then hopefully the bigger picture will show the way forward.

On the Howes front. Are club meant to say to possible targets well we have to many people from Howes stable so unfortunately *insert start players name* we cant sign you.

I'll remind you of the Jedward quiff you once had in 10 years time wehn your married with kids

Didnt the old regime at Hull break off contract negotiations with Yeamo a couple of years ago until he got rid of Howes as his agent?

I think it was more a case of Yeamo holding off till his agents deal ran out so he didnt have to pay a cut.

With have others with Howes,

Rich Horne is probably the highest profile

Looks after Jason Netherton too

Chief Exec

Was also Managing Director at Leeds 1998-2002

I don't believe for a second that he ever did.

If I was AP reading some of the crap on here, I'd wonder why I bothered, its clear a number of people have an agenda.

Me neither

If the extremely lightweight criticism of this appointment makes him wonder any such thing then he's in the wrong business.

I agree, the general area of concern appears to be his lack of experience which is fair comment, however most are prepared to respect the decision and see how it pans out...If he fails I am sure AP will have no problems getting rid!!

AP is a business man and poster are trying to say he doesn't known what he is doing

Pull the other one ..You don't earn your money being a daft person .Give him a year or so then have a go if he hasn't got it right

Allam? Perhaps he pays someone else to think.

Devlins mrs is also The new phsyio not impressed by training faculties by all accounts especially at academy level, David Howes is spot on imo

Is Gordon Street a bit too rough for her? Diddums

Rumoured to be Gentle's no.2.

So he is now immune from any criticism? You always bang on about people being allowed opinions.....

Another underwhelming move for me, I would have preferred Webster to stay.

I'd rather have a change, don't want any remnants remaining from the Agar regime.

Plenty of assistants are ex players now such as Poaching, Hay, Webster, Chester etc.

We'll have to wait and see. I've heard plenty of positive things about Webster and quite a few bad things about Chester. Like I say though, for me, another underwhelming decision.

Devlin confirmed today

And Daveys departure as well as David Joyce

Cant be any worse than this year!

The 3 that was written on the whiteboards in Brnatingham gym this season was comical! The machines in the gym (Brantingham) are all falling apart, I'm surprised there weren't a lot more training related injuries. The sooner they kick that place into touch and have a more professional setup of their own, the better!

So you don't think Rule has ever been involved in signings or contract negotiations?

There's nothing in this statement you have just made that was in the statement that CS was commenting on. Re read your post.
