Keeps saying it but doesn’t fix it….still only won the same points as Smith but hey….we are keeping the scoreline dow N

Since 1985.....
Don’t give them ideas. They’ll be trying to get Geldoff to run a fundraiser for their new burger van. Saying that, they’d probably mess up trying to get Midge Ure and end up with his cousin Man Ure.
Don’t get all the Fash hate, but I guess all the usual scapegoats aren’t playing anymore. Got to bag someone, haven’t we?
He adds aggression and works as hard as anyone. Every team have players like him and in a better team he would be more appreciated. I’m not one to praise him just because he’s from Hull, either.

Do I enjoy watching us lose? No, but it's a he'll of a lot better watching a close loss that a hammering.
I don't think k grix is a great coach but he's done OK with the mess that smith left and the resources he's had available
He has had better resources in players …my gripe is why is he still here as he was part of the coaching set up when the hammerings was being dished out yet stayed.He runs his mouth off in the press to often for my liking but never picks out the experienced players,just think he is out of his depth and hope he goes at end of season and let Cartwright bring his own team in.

He might not have had any real power to change things? Do you know how the previous setup was actually run? I certainly don't. He's a fairly straight talker and you might not like what he says however if he dealt in the usual platitudes then he'd probably get stick for that. I may be doing you a disservice but it feels like you've made your mind up about him and whatever he does won't be good enough. Personally, I'm pretty ambivalent about him. Not fussed if he stays or goes.

Watch it back, he's at the centre of every skirmish from 20 minutes on. And knocked Rovers out of there stride.
Your full of effort now which is a good sign, but lack that bit of quality needed win games.
Some black n white tinted glasses being worn as well judging by the chip on the shoulder comments.
Thank you for those comments -agree with all. FWIW I think Minchella is a great player. I don’t like Lewis but the game needs players like him. I’ve always liked Fash the likes of him and Eseses etc complimented our young kids is encouraging . We’re getting closer to you. Our rate of improvement is fast but never enough for some fans.
"The Fash one, there was loads of running in," Grix told Hull Live. "I couldn't see a decent replay of what actually happened. That was one sin bin each, so it wasn't the worst case scenario.
Grixs take on the Fash sin-bin
The second one from Denive was just dumb. He’d only just gone back on the field, that's one where he looked like he's played 70 minutes, and it was a lazy one. It was easier to do that than go and do the next bit.
This his take on Balmforths sin-bin,…why single out Balmforth with the word dumb,..yes it was a sin-bin but these happen in every game and I don’t see other coaches singling out players for this.I just think he has it in for Balmforth for some reason and can’t help himself when he opens his mouth….he comes across as a bit of a bully,just my opinion of him.

Or he could actually be telling the truth. I don't know what your beef is with Grix but with less resources and more adversity he has improved the team. Think he deserves some credit and I for one appreciate his straight talking.
Fash sin bin was a melee and a a sin bin for each side. Balm forth, as much as I like the kid as a player was just stupid. It killed the game off and he'd only just gone back on so no excuses for laziness.
