true he looks like he has a face like a slapped bum maybe Moores could be sponsored by a pharmacutical company that makes antidepressants

Moore might not be the most favoured due to a couple of rather exaggerated stories doing the rounds, but there's a lot to be said for experience in a head coaching role.

at least he wont be on tv every week then

nope leave that to agar,gentle and mcrae

Since when did Radio Blunderside determine when the club make official statements ?

Is the reason you shan't sleep the worry over dodgy tax deals and youth policy of a certain shambles squating in the KFC

Let's face it, they're generally more reliable on timescales than your CEO. Do I look worried? Having a lovely off-season, thanks.

Let's face it, the off season has traditionally been the best time of year to support FC. Tons of promises year after year, aimed at driving up pass sales. Annual rumour fest about Rovers going bust, and huge threads on your site about how high up the table you will finish (its usually "top 4 plus CC semi's mimimum" type comments). It's like a lovely dream that gets shattered every February.

Having said all that, even I can see that AP may break the mould. Best budget for some brasso from now on.

You say that about FC, but is it much different at Rovers? You're in the mid table mediocrity bucket with us and articulate similar aspirations, indeed Zod's been rumoured to have said that with a few astute signings you should be challenging for top 2 next season.

The good thing about being a Hull fan at the moment is the context. Less than 2 months ago our off season was with Kath and Agar in charge. Now we've got the Silver Fox avec chequebook, new coach, new conditioner, new DOR, Andy Lynch, reduced season pass prices, maybe (however ridiculous it may be) Jamie Lyon. You can't widdle on my bonfire, cockle. AP's pouring the petrol of hope on it. Not like we've signed a coach with "concerns about his character", is it? (see what I did there, getting us back on topic

)

do you share madam pearsons vision for the kc developments mrs. coffee.?

How does this one go again? I assume it's an R.B.A. stylee theory about us getting booted out of the KC by the Allams who are behind "Pearson's" acquisition? Could you either be a bit clearer, or talk about Rovers new coach please? I went to school with a lad called Kevin Moore. Obviously not your Kevin Moore, he's [umuch[/u older than me.

You cannot possibly extrapolate Zod's delusional rants and make out that your average Rovers fan has such lofty ambitions. I expect a higher level of logic in your posts, cockle



Anyway, The Andy Lynch signing, that's screwed your "avatar" theory, which is why I suspect you have hastily dispensed with Stevie Mac!

Which brings us right back on topic - dodgy coaches.

I like what you did there. Who is the mystery fallback candidate if it turns out the character concerns about Moore can't be put aside? We hear that they are down to two. Wrigley?

I have absolutely no idea! I'm struggling to know what member's of my family are up to, so I've no chance of understanding the inner workings of our board. Let's face it, if the CEO is involved, it will go off without a hitch!

Well, Rob Crossland is back according to Twitter, which is presumably why RH said the announcement was to be today. The board are such scamps making you wait.

You follow members of our board on Twitter? Don't you consider that behaviour a bit odd?

I don't [ufollow[/u him.

You said it was hard keeping tabs on Rovers directors. I was helping you by searching for him on Twitter and he got back today. Honestly, provide a bit of information, entirely relevant to the thread, and get some personal insults. His Twitter feed is quite dull. Mainly boring contractor stuff. He told people not to ask him "that question" now he's back. Such a tease.

Trust me, that wasn't a personal insult, I thought we had a better relationship than that

You get enough of them from the rest of this board.

I really should try this "Twitter" fandango, I just can't be bothered. I'm equally indifferent about FB.

What a service you provide for us Rovers fans ... and almost daily too

Aye. I heard the Rugby League Express were going to run the "rumour" as headline news for this Monday, but then I heard a "rumour" that the editor of Rugby League Weekly said he'd heard of the "rumour" first and said he wouldn't send any xmas cards to staff at RL Express so they both called a truce and agreed neither of them should run the story and perhaps spend their time reporting about what's going on in the play-offs.

Then I heard a "rumour" Fox sports in Aus claimed they'd heard of the "rumour" and they where going to run the story but decided instead to spend their time and energy reporting their play-off series instead - gutted I am



Even though the "rumour" was on the verge of being the important "rumour" in the history of world Rugby League (rumour has it anyway), I'm afraid I have to own up and admit that it is a total lie as a result of the bitterness harboured by the leech and parasite that is Mrs Barista.

Sorry, cockle, thought you were the same poster as Richie Robin. My mistake. Or is it?

This is [uexactly[/u how Mrs Barista operates.

Due the fact she's been owned by me (more times than I care to "bookmark" ***s***), she'll post something which in most cases is an manipulation of words to engineer a quote out of it's original context, or in this case, a complete and total lie, so that it gets quoted on, commented on, viewed by most people like yourself who take the quote at face value with considering whether her claims are of any substance etc. etc. and so in this instance, having to defend myself.

I'm awaiting to see who our next coach is and players before (and all other squads for that matter) before I'd even gauge an opinion on next season.

As for Mrs Barista, we'll quote each other until the thread gets locked (by which time everyone has identified her as the leech and parasite that she is), then she'll be frothing at the mouth, harbouring her bitterness for a good while until she eventually tries it on again - she just never learns.

Alternatively the MODs can avoid this sequence of events happening again by simply banning her from this Hull KR board for good then I can post about matters concerning Rovers, instead of having to deal with unprovoked attempts to create an artificial perception of what I actually contribute to this board.

Happy days!!!

You are correct I do post as Richie Robin but never once have I stated a "few astute signings would get us to top two".

You really are a degenerate...

I really don't want her banning, it's dull enough on here, particularly in the off season. Rather than throwing her off the forum, why not try playing her at her own game and not simply resorting to insults?

Just a thought.

She hit a nerve again, eh, Zoddy?

Must be getting mixed up with a different Richie Robin, then, because he said, in the last fortnight, "With some astute signings this squad could easily win 4/5 even 6 more games than this year and that would mean challenging for the top 2 and challenging for the top 2 means challenging to win trophies and that's what it's all about". Easy comment to misinterpret tbf.

Look, the irony here is that I've posted more than anyone about Rovers next coach announcement, so stop trying to derail or you'll be in trouble. I will not resort to your name-calling but simply attempt to get the thread back on track without recriminations. Honestly, you're a scamp too.





Latest info is that Moore is the frontrunner with another unnamed candidate as the alternative. Not much to choose between them, but clearly Moore already has head coach experience. I'd go for Kurt Wrigley, I think.
