Too big to go down. It's an old adage which is trotted out when a supposed "big" club find themselves in difficulty (not just in RL).

Do we believe this adage this particulary depressing Friday morning or is there a real possibility that come the end of 2015 Hull Fc will be the latest sporting club to discover that they aren't too big to be relegated?

Sat in the ground last night, watching dumbstruck at how unbelieveably clueless our team are, it was difficult to escape the feeling that Hull RLFC are sleepwalking towards the unthinkable.

Right now, we look absolute shoe-ins for a bottom four spot (along with Wakefield by the sound of it). All it will take is a couple of bad nights/afternoons in August/September and the unthinkable will become a reality.

This is the biggest crisis we've faced since 1999, and unless someone at the club wakes up and quick, we could easily be the next Bradford.






I've been on the internet and have already got a sense of the fans' passion for the club. They are very fanatical - Peter Gentle 12th September 2011.

Money doesn't talk it swears, Obscenity who really cares, Propaganda all is phony.

I'm the son and heir of a shyness which is criminally vulgar.

Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way.

A man who lives in hell can still aspire to heaven.

The team on paper is not a bad one, unfortunatly games arent won pn paper, were awful at tge minute, totally devout of ideas. .. and as ive stated before, with the current regime in charge, were on a one way trip to the championship. ....stopping at dismal central and dissapointment parkway along the way






In a nutshell...a brissie LEGEND

No team is big enough to go down, just look at Bradford's decline. I actually think we'd struggle in the Championship 8's we aren't good at knock out rugby and the Championship teams will be out to make a name for themselves

The likes of Wakefield & Widnes wont be quaking in their boots,
at our attack, in fact they will target us.

Widnes could/should be, the final nail in the coffin for Radford.
