Indeed.
The thing is personally any criticism I level at players or any defending of players is based purely on my opinion of their form etc, all this bloox about local lads or overseas players is irrelevant to me.
King has been out for a long time, he obviously wanted to make a big impression in his first game back and he ended up being a little too revved up and it resulted in a poor game. If in 3/4 games time he is still underperforming then lets look at him.
Consequently anyone who has played well in the first game needs to be consistent and not go missing for 2/3 weeks.

Agree 100%, so long as he (and no other player) actually "costs us" a game, then they should get dropped for the next match.

That is exactly what I said as we walked away from the ground the other night. I must admit I am not a lover of Kingy and never have been nevertheless I do believe with it being his first game back his eagerness to impress was possibly his downfall !
The blokes got his timing wrong thats all. These big hits come off and the fans and the players lift massively ala Korkidas last season.
Every side needs a player with a bit of a mean streak in them and Paul King is the only player in our squad that can live up to this.
Anyone defending him is accused of doing so purely because he's a Hull lad. Absolute rubbish! Many people find themselves defending players mainly because they're embarrassed at how vindictive some of their own fans can be towards certain players.

His timing is wrong??
Likening him to Korkidas is harsh though, hes tripe!

King was below the mark on Friday and im sure he'll admit that himself. Will gove him a few games to get upto speed and then judge him from there on
Sorry Huch, Kingy's passion is still what I hope he keeps every time he pulls on the b&w irregular hoops-----He's fit this season and just watch him after a few more games. I do not think any of our lads have lacked discipline off the field in the recent seasons, but certainly I have seen a few games were a lot of them lacked anysort of passion for the game .....check back posts for those games,I know you are well able, and see how fans complained then. The first few games have the adrenalin surging through us fans, so obviousely it's going to be there in the team....I least, I for, one hope it is. So again, I stand by what I said, Hope Sharpy remembers what it's like to actually run out to play for the FC....(I remember those days, even if he's forgotten them) and we'll have some good wins this season to make up for our disappointing last year when we suffered with too many injuries......grannyfan Cindy

Take my word for it I am not off my head!! I believe he did not have a good game and needs to improve. I personally do not rate him he drops too much ball..You nedd to get of off your high horse
I can see he didn't have a great game - I even commented to my mate at the game to that effect. What I don't understand is why you feel the need to have a dig on an open forum after one game when the guy has been out for a long time and probably wanted to make an impression. So, I'm off my high horse. have you parked yours up as well?
