He wrote an article saying Rovers fans don't need to worry, and now this is his 2nd article about the team he doesn't write about!

No Rovers fans are worried or bothered, that's why they are all over here and social media trying to convince us its a bad appointment. |

Quote ="The Dentist Wilf"Talking of Hull Daily Mail, I saw this and thought that's not like a Dan Tomlinson headline, it is an interesting article by the Hull KR reporter (surprise surprise) no doubt another Rovers fan who has no problem with us signing him at all and yet who strangely has to have their two Penneth.... at length!

Has anyone watched the video online? Moz had a little chuckle to himself when Hemmings mentioned this.
For what it's worth Morley thinks he'll be a good fit. I know who's advice I'd rather take |

I saw the episode last night. Eddie came across as a bit confused with matters!
Moz, who played under TS, said it would be a great appointment.
Did well to get a story out of Eddies ramblings

It's extremely odd. On the other hand it is basically FC Pravda, so maybe it's part of the job description.
Now it has happened, I realise I am unfussed. He's just not that much of a divisive figure or polarising figure. Decent coach and with some players back from injury, you'll probably improve next year. |

Exactly I'd rather take words of Morley who has played the game at the highest level both here and in Oz and played under Smith.
All I can say is welcome aboard Mr Smith, good luck and I hope you are the one that can at last sort out the issues within the club and re galvanise us all. |

He'll be another getting paid off if that doesn't come to pass. |

I posted this on the 27th June 2022 on here
https://viewtopic.php ... &start=120
Quote ="The Biffs Back"Has anyone heard any whispers with regards to Tony Smith for next season?
I was speaking to an ex Hull FC player on holiday and he told me that he reckons that he'll be going there next season to replace Brett Hodgson?
I would love him back at Leeds in some coaching capacity as he would be the ideal man to assist Rohan and to also help sort our terrible disciplinary record out.'"
So it looks like "The ex Hull FC player" was actually correct with the information that he told me back in June.
This would also indicate that this coaching change was actually sorted out quite a while ago too.
I personally think that he'll do a great job for Hull FC just as long as Adam Pearson can let him run the side his way and not interfere as Tony Smith simply doesn't stand for any of that. |

As Paul Cooke said, Rovers' season has unquestionably been a failure. Easier to write silly stuff about FC than face that rather uncomfortable truth. |

Tony Smith certainly did a great job at Warrington and in reality we should have landed at least a couple of GF wins during his tenure.
He will be a good fit at Hull |

Obviously having to pay off Reynolds in June was the last straw for Pearson |

Would you guys agree that this coaching change was arranged many months ago and whilst Hodgson was still in charge?

I really can't see that being the case. Hodgson was talking about the plans for next season right up until the derby.
I honestly believe if we had won the derby or at the very least lost with some dignity, he'd still be coach.
Pearson quite rightly had had enough and decided to act.
In a strange way defeat on Saturday or the manner of the defeat was the best outcome for the future of the club. |

I was categorically told by the ex Hull FC player that Tony Smith would be the head coach of Hull FC and that he would be replacing Brett Hodgson way back in June?
Surely too much of a coincidence? |

Ex-Hull players covers a wide range of credibility. If it is a club stalwart like Richard Horne or Kirk Yeaman, then I’d be more ready to believe than if it was Jason Crookes or Danny Niklas.

Too many rumours do the rounds regarding our club 
Not long after he left Rovers that rumour started but then it went quiet very quickly 
Pretty sure if the rest of the season hadn’t turned out as bad then Hodgson would still be coach.
Be interesting to know who this ex player is? Prepared to tell us? |
