And all i am doing is pointing out that on this forum there will always be some that make a case for whoever we sign irrespective of age or lack of ability.. There cannot be many on here that honestly think that the clubs recruitment for 2025 is good. its P-ss poor with no strategy and full of average ageing Joes who will spend most of the time sitting in the stands due to injury.

Are the players incoming better than those who are leaving?
Rapana - Walker presumably? Hardaker - Sutcliffe Chamberlain - Scott Cartwright - Okunbor Aydin - Jack Brown Briscoe - Mcintosh Cust - Morgan Smith Abdull - Nu Brown Sezer - Hoy Bourouh - Houghton Asiata - Pele? Holmes - ?
Plus the emergence of Martin, Moy, Balmforth. Hopefully Barron can continue to impress and Staveley comes back strong.
Looking at it as a whole, I'd say we've improved the squad overall. Does it still have gaps? 100% I don't think anyone would deny that.
The club has been on a slow and steady decline for the last 5 plus seasons, it might take a steady increase to get back to where we want to be.

Wonder where we have heard that before Put whatever spin on the clubs recruitment you want but its poor with no strategy. Cust for example where will he play Rapira coming as a full back or wing when we are equiped there unless has been said Walker is leaving. Sezer a halfback who failed miserably whilst at Leeds yet is deemed good enough for Hull FC. Chamberlain on a three year deal who may not make the squad All hail Ritchie

You mean...supporters actually SUPPORTING their club? We need to rid the club of this cancer immediately!!!! After all, constant negativity from the terraces has proven over time to be a major benefit right? Remember when we used to turn much better sides over at Boulevard just with our support? The bad old days eh? :'(
The words of fools mean nothing to one who resides in the truth.

I don’t think you ever see an upside, or think anything other than short term. Plus the market is limited. The club is trying to rebuild not buy 13 superstars who are 25 yrs old. We are lucky in several ways that should make all hull fans happy- no relegation, some money has come in, a good youth system, some useful signings, some good signings, yes, some unknowns, a new coach. We have Myler and Ellis who have contacts too. Think we’ve done well given the context. Your mindset will challenge all that but that’s your way I guess. Look on the bright side
