See he's tipping us for the bottom four,accuses us of playing the same type of dull and boring forward football under Lee Radford for too long.Don't particularly like the man but i think this time he has a valid point.

He speaks how he sees it and not everyone will agree with him but like you I sort of agree. Don't think we are bottom 4 material yet but he's right about our style of rugby.

Sorry to say , I think he is right. Our recruitment and retention has been terrible.

I don't think we'll be bottom 4 but we've dropped a long way behind the top clubs in only a season due to really poor recruitment and retention decisions.

Everyone of you is guilty of FC blasphemy. You'll soon be called negative lol
Fact is Judas is saying what vast majority think. With this squad we lost 11 on the spin and took 2 x record defeats.
Where are the 3-4 proper signings ? We've added no one on quality- no one ! So more of the same and a tough start to boot.
For me it's a poor start - LR and AL given the sack - name a stand after LR - either Ellis steps up or a proper modern creative coach steps in and away we go ! Top 4 and a CC final
I am very positive - this squad can win the Treble - BUT we need a modern coach - bags of ideas and playing the beautiful game as it should be.

Half "this squad" weren't playing or were unfit, in particular key playmakers, something most on here (+Schofield) seem to be conveniently ignoring at the moment.
Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?
Schofield makes a living out of being controversial, this statement is a prime example of that. He contributes nowt to the club but Hull fans gobble up rubbish like this because it suits their agenda.
As things stand I think that it is entirely plausible to make a prediction of Hull and Rovers finishing 9th and 10th.
Over 29 long hard rounds I think that London and Salford's squad depths will see them fall away.
Other than those 2, I see everybody else either having the stability or steady growth to finish above us both.
Hope springs eternal though and we both may have injury free seasons and our new signings could click straight away. Then, who knows what could happen.
