The best team won. Refereeing was appalling, inconsistent and inexplicable. And to some extent done by Castleford when Sao was sent off, Cas stopped play and appealed to Kendall and Mamo sprang to his feet when they got their decision. If Hodgson is still in a job when I get up in the morning I will be surprised and disappointed. He either is not up to the job or the players will not play for him (or perhaps anyone) but either way, as paying customers, the situation needs resolving. I do not agree with the idea that the problem is he has no head coach experience. Rohan Smith seems to be making an impact and overall Brett probably has more pedigree and experience. It’s about making the right selection and backing them up. Whilst I have the greatest respect for Ellis as a great player, as a defensive coach there’s no evidence of any impact there at all. Three tries by Cas as soon as Mamo was binned. You’d have thought they had the man advantage. Team spirit was utterly lacking after we scored our points. How I wish we still had Sneyd instead of Gale who has been an utter waste and demonstrates little leadership or organisation. Probably lots of thoughts about individual players but needed to get that off my chest for now.

Just got home in shock after seeing another horror show with no change from the last game.Think Hodgson is out of his depth with this mob,could say team but it doesn't seem to fit.The second half was an absolute disgrace of players just going through the motions and chasing shadows.Whatever they do in training isn't reflected on matchday, discipline is an absolute disgrace and once again we are going to have players banned.The coach sat in the stand whilst the juvenile Conner Wynne got involved in all sorts of indiscipline like a petulant child,a coach with a bit of an idea would have pulled him off.Not as though it's a one off with Wynne, it would never happen at the big clubs. Think the whole club needs a clear out, Johnstone,Gale,Taylor Lane,Fash,Houghton,Wynne etc. The club is full of players who are past their best or have never improved.Been watching Hull for over sixty years now and i have seen some poor side's in black and white but this lot seem like one of the worst, rudderless, ill disciplined, and poorly coached.We all did our bit during lockdown,paid for passes we never used without asking for anything in return and we are served this display week after week,people were leaving half way through the second half,does the club think they are going to renew passes.No wonder Radford was laughing at the end,he got sacked for a lot less.

Quote:they go down to 12 men, so what do we do? Concede 3 tries in 10 minutes.
Almost felt like you put all your eggs into tonight's basket and it unravelled horribly that 2nd half.
You've had some proper horrible ends to the season and I think you can add this season to the list now.
Scott Taylor Danny Houghton are shot to bits, wattsy out performed Tag tonight and he was sat on his sofa.
What's the situation with Ben Mcnamara ? That lovedea should be 9, blood some of the kids now because I think it's fair to say you're cooked this season.
Agree in most with what you say. Unless radders was tongue in cheek about connor texting him , if not then I’d be seriously pickled off if I was Pearson. I don’t mind show ponies if they are winning whilst doing it but we are getting thrashed..it’s petty and immature As for Ben, folk are placing too much expectations on him. He’s a kid. I just want the club to make sure he’s looked after before throwing him into first team action
2nd half capitulation....i'd say shocking, but as FC fans we are use to this now, yet nobody seems to solve the problem each year, cant blame injuries all the time, that squad tonight shouldn't be having 32 without reply put past them in 40 minutes!
players easily wound up tonight and couldnt handle it, now look likely to be banned for the next game or two!

I had to laugh when Sky said Connor back in at 6 as the in form Walker is at FB Lol lol - we’d just had 60 put on us and v Rovers we were lucky to win against a poor side who did score 5 tries I think
No one is in form - and we are no longer playing for the Coach
In these situations it’s best to move the Coach on I emailed Adam after the loss at Caravan park and gave my opinion , for what it’s worth , that it was time to move BH on and realise a mistake was made in hiring him
We need a World Class pedigree coach and under AP we never have had one !
AP struggles to recruit head coaches and then manages them badly

He was pulled off before he got sent off He was shocking anyway on the night

We just do not trust youth there's no logical explanation on this planet why a coach would select Johnstone over Balmforth
Or pull in a Figi nine and play him in just about every other position in the team but nine
Really don’t know the way forward after this. Yet again making an average side look very good
Hodgson is a nice guy but not up to it. If we had the money I’d move him to overlook the Centre of Excellence, and get Tony Smith in to coach the first team.
If nothing changes I really fear for next season, and maybe even this one!
