People should think and believe what they want, challenge others on their differing opinions but no way should we be trying to shut up or censor someone just because we disagree with what they are saying
The club can do no wrong in people's eyes, if you went back a year you'd have people backing the club replacing Swift for Tindall, supporting the signing of Okunbor despite his off field antics, thinking Pele was just what we needed to add some size up front, Morgan Smith would be bargain buy of the season, Nu Brown would be brilliant because he played once for the kiwis etc, people can and should be allowed to be sceptical because there's a high chance we'll be in this exact situation again this time next year with bang average recruitment
Absolutely people have different opinions. If we where asked to name an Hull FC team if all fully fit most would be different. Usually supporters of any team tend to back them. Yes we don't agree with every move or signing but tend to get behind them . What boils the p.iss is when some find no positive aspect of anything to do with FC. If they upset and depress you so much don't bother.

The club can also do no right with some people, saying there has been nothing positive for 6 years is a massive reaction, some great games. Even this year the, which has been awful, there are been some positives to focus on. Some on here just focus on the negatives and go missing when something positive happens. Look at Aydin, most thought it was signing and downgrade on Brown (including me), but how many of the those have praised Myler for that signing.
Even Asista, certain people focusing on his injuries, rather than what a great player he is and haven't looked at the fact for most of his career he has has a very good injury record.
By the same token, the club can do nothing right with some folks either.
Everyone knows we've been poop for the last few years, but the club are actually rebuilding the squad for next year. Nature of the cap is we can't sign marquee players in every position. What we have done is recruit consistent and committed performers who are tried and tested SL players.
The pace thing everyone is banging on about is a bit of a red herring too, apart from Wigan I can't think of many teams with more than 1 or 2 pace merchants. The key is having players pushing up, which admittedly we've always seemed bad at.
Squad was always bottom 4 on paper this season, most fans who I spoke to didn't expect us to do particularly well with no hope of top 6.
I expect that to change next season. Will we get top 6? I don't know, but I expect us to make a good go of it.

Also I don't think there are one poster on here who thinks the club can do no wrong, most are balanced posters, however there are a couple on here who never post anything positive. Nothing about Moy, improved performances etc, just all negative.
They have it in for Myler and won't give him or the players signed a chance.
As mentioned before, but no one replies, which club directly above us apart from Wakey, has done good federation signings?

Catalan signing Whitehead, Makinson and Partington, 3 good fed signings
Rovers signing Davies - another good fed signing, one of the best wingers in the comp

Tom Burgess to Hudds - great signing for them
Rovers and Catalans aren't directly above us, plus we tried fir Whitehead, rest where signed before Myler arrived, which is exactly the point I'm trying to make, there us limited quality and most was gone before Myler came in.

I'm a passholder, I do support them. It doesn't stop me seeing the reality of what the club does. Honestly, if someone on an Internet forum gets you so wound up you should stay off here
