I want more than that, i don't want to accept 2nd best a club of our size and staure should be competing for every honour on a regular basis, we are going backwards quickly


I don't, but the simplistic view of "sack the board" is not the answer I feel.
However it is the only thing you have to say !

The point about coaches and boards is that I would expect the board to trust the coaches decision about playing matters. We would all be annoyed if they didn't. However, because Sharp didn't want Briscoe you expect the board to step in. You can't have it both ways and I feel you are seeking a utopian world that doesn't exist.

Can you really name me a team apart from Saints, who's fand are happy with their board ? How would you feel if you were a Bulls fan ? Or Wire, having spent a load of money (again) ? Or Leeds, who have now lost 2 in a row ?

Sorry, but I think your arguments are a best facile and at worst misguided. Not a personal comment on your integrity or desire for the club; I admire that !

I have been a regular for a lot of years and have suffered a lot more disappointment and heartache than I have joy. However like you I love my team and always want the best for them.

However the world is not as simple as "sack the board" and that is why I made my comment.

As posted on the "EVERYONE PLEASE READ" thread, and with acknowledgement to xxHoneyxx who has already pointed the below out in this thread too:

Gary Hetherington was at the Hull v Hull KR game - he was in the Circle Restaurant after the game. Do not know where he was sat during the match but assume it was the "directors box" seats with his wife?

It seems obvious that he and Kath then went to the Bulls v Rhinos game after her obligations at the KC (including post-match round-up to sponsors) was completed?

Agree with all you say, and early 'boring' comments. Some people think we have a divine right to sign any player we like and forget things like the salary cap come into play. Would love to see us winning every week playing sparkling rugby but am realistic enough to realise that there are 13 other clubs after the silverware also. Saddle up and enjoy the ride, this is Hull FC after all

She was clearly asking for odds on which team's supporters would be the most p*ssed of today. Leeds' for losing or Hull's for that embarrassing signing.

ultimatley she will have the final say over everything at the clubin recent seasons

Somebody forgot to get paul Cookes signature, we have never replaced him

Shaun Briscoe was allowed to leave, which was a ridculous decision

We forgot to check the rules regarding Jamie Thackery being cup tied

Has she come out and spoke over the visa saga

Did she come out and speak over the decision to go to Friday night's

Did she do her homework on peter Sharp coaching credentials as he had achieved nothing down under

Did she not intervene and tell John Kear we had to drop Danny Brough for Sionne Famwauami(sp) at a playoff game

Why did she allow the players to drive John Kear out and made him sign a confidentality agreement on him receiving his sevrence pay

Did she give the seal of approval on Rich Agar getting a 3 year contract as an unproven coach

Does she front up to the fans on any occasions to answer any questions

Will she speak to the average fan, unless they in a coporate package

The above a fact no as remember Paul King golf day didn't even acknowledge the 2 teams we had enterned becuse we was just little fans off the street

She has no passion or commitment to hull fc at unless it means taking money off us

She would drop us in a flash and sell up if Paul Caddick would sell Leeds Rhinos to the hethringtons

Now see, heres the thing. Hetherington knows Hull fans would never boycott because of their loyalty and passion for the club. She and the board are in it for the money, put a team out on the cheap to keep the fans coming in. The only way you could shock the board is to accept mediocraty for a couple or three seasons and boycott the club, snub the new merchandise and make the club untenable. But if I were a Hull fan I could never do that. No win situation.






HEY YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!
