On its own a 12 point loss at Headingley (a ground we've always struggled at) isn't too bad of a result. But its all the games we've thrown away already that have done the damage, this game should never have been a 'must win' even the club have hinted that they'd have rested key players today if we'd won last week.
Still struggling to see many positives about the club at the moment, Radford can't hide from the fact we are still a worse team than we were under Gentle, he's had a season and a half now and it still isn't getting better. At least 8 Radford signings in the lineup today by the way, can't be long before Pearson blames everything on Gentle/McRae's recruitment again
leeds losing at home to cas last week didn't do hull any favours.top 3 teams very rarely lose 2 home games on the bounce.thats why they are in the top 3.but we wont compete consistently until we cut the error rate.
leeds have been rubbish for weeks and didn't sound like they were any better today so that's 2 games in a row where we had a good chance of victory and came away with nothing. Injuries and a possible suspension to 3 key players really don't bode well for the 3 crucial games ahead. From being a clinical team who were looking a lot more organised it suddenly seems to be going awry again.
Between us, rovers and wire for the final 2 top 8 places by the looks of it
A game we could have won,but could be a disaster,thought watts was outstanding,probably the best game since 1st signed.Mini has a calf injury,dont know how bad,but sneyd in big trouble,sin binned for twisting mcguire's ankle and it seems it may be broken.He is on his way to hospital,still our friends at redhall maybe lenient with him,I dont think.

Seasons not over yet, this Team is better than Gentles and has much more potential, I'd fancy us on our day to beat any team home or away, I don't you could say that under Gentle.
Let's see how we finish before making big statements.

The effort was there but too many errors and a lack of composure cost us.
Really need the two wins over Wakefield which will see us 6th-8th going into the last three rounds.
How ironic would it be that a rejuvenated Wakefield side under Smith beat us twice and condemn us to bottom 4?
Would then Radford be sacked, and we go for Smith as replacement?
This season has just been a rollercoaster of emotions and I think will ultimately end as bang average. Then as it's been for the last 10 years, all about next season.
