Calderwood is not of the required quality for Hull FC to challenge in SL, that is a simple fact. There are no other FC players in the squad so I can't make comment on them, so whilst it looks like I am singling Calderwood out I am not.
I don't think this forum needs 'people like you' or any other kind of people with specific roles tbh. People should give their honest opinion and not try to come accross in a certain way.
Calderwood is a very good winger and he has shown that over the years in SL. He has had a very good end to the season for both club and country and imo is exactly what we need.

I don't have a "specific role", it's just I don't follow the popular opinion on things, I form my own.

Sometimes I see a genuine point but other times I just see some people's views are FC bashing for the sake of it.
I tend to say what I feel whether its pro or anti the club.
Fair enough, I don't take any deliberate stance, I take each issue as I find, the club are doing a lot of things wrong at the moment in my eyes, and have been doing for some time.

Jack Briscoe is coming through but he is nowhere near ready as he has hardly played for the Reserves this season mainly in the Academy. He is the best winger we have coming through though.

Plenty of last seasons reserves have now left the club and signed for NL clubs. TBH I think Hull will struggle at reserve grade and acadamy grade for a few years now, particularly with Rovers being so active in this area.
Motto of the week -
It is the way of the weak to secretly bleat to those in authority rather than fight their own battles.

Maybe so, however, every couple of years you do tend to see us get rid of a batch of players that havent made it and refresh the squad.
