Maybe Rovers eased off a bit in the second half, I'm not sure, and I know we had the wind, but either way it was miles better from us, and if we had brought that from minute one we just might have given ourselves a chance.

Maybe it is a bit early to be making Charles the main man, but at the minute I don't see a better option. Smith tries hard but just isn't good enough, and if it wasn't already obvious that Brown should be at 9 then it certainly should be now. Tell Charles he's got the job until Trueman is back, and just him go and express himself and make mistakes and learn from them. I think he's really got something, but he needs the exposure at this level to be able to develop.

If we can avoid our props being banned all the time I think we can do OK. Ese'ese and Pele were a handful when they were on together. Pele has a lot to work on but I'm sure there's a player in there somewhere.

A lot of people call Okunbor lazy. I think he's just a little bit soft. He seems reluctant to do the tough stuff, and doesn't seem at all keen on putting himself in places where he knows it's going to hurt. He makes a lot of tackles, but he's windy. I'm not sure that's something that you are ever going to be able to change.

As for Hull they are lower than Rovers have ever been without the huge safety net of a points system you are facing oblivion.

What astounds me the most is why Hull fans buy the rhetoric and propaganda spines by Pearson every year and now his apprentice Tony Smith.

If and it’s a big if Pearson is telling the truth he has spent to cap, Smith should be sacked now buying the misfits he as.

3-5 years of this would destroy the most hardened supporters but that’s what the future holds for you.

During that TWELVE year period hull kr flirted with disappearing into oblivion on more than one occasion, do the letters CVA mean anything to you?

Now, obviously, it's not going too well for us at the minute, but as we are tenth in the SL table we are not, therefore, a second division club, let alone a third division outfit as hull kr were in 1995/96.

Hence, your above statement is factually incorrect!

(Don't you just hate it when simple incontrovertible facts disprove flawed arguments!).
