Quote ="Easty"Not at all Hull FC have announced most if not all there signings for 2010. Hull KR have many irons in the fire and not announced anything and likewise not told any player that they are not required next season. IMO that's the way to run a Football club. Not announcing every signing you have in an attempt to appease the supporters when your team is playing poorly. Come the off season when news is thin on the ground and your supporters are looking at the news to keep season tickets ticking etc that's when signings should be announced and likewise signing players during the season lets those players that are still fighting for contracts know that they are no longer required and then suddenly the fight and vigour inside there bellies is lost.
Hull FC from the top down need to take a long hard look at the situation they find themselves in. The fans of Hull FC also need to stop jumping on every announcement from Hull KR like there is some substantial ulterior motive. Spend some time concentrating on your own club. Your board are the bad guys not Rovers hierarchy.'"
Firstly, you either don't follow the game very closely or your so keen to take a pop shot that you merly ignore, but its pretty well known that we are far from finished in terms of recruitment.
Also, all clubs including Hull KR announce the signing of players when they make them, or usually very shortly afterwards (ie, after a major game maybe). It just so happens that we are making a lot of signings this year due to the position we currently find ourselves in.
And I hate to tell you, but the reason those fans are jumping on statements from Hull KR is because of the significant level of rumour regarding the long term stability of your club. Not saying its true, not saying I want it (my opposition to Hull KR only goes as far as banter, I would never be pleased to see anything happen to a RL club and thus its fans, see my posts on Celtic), but that is why there is a lot of comment on it at the moment. FWIW, I believe that the Hull KR management are more than resourceful enough.
