Quote ="Staffs FC"Quite frankly one of the most incredible theories ever presented on this forum - not sure whether to laugh or cry. Adam Pearson being 'brainwashed' by Lee Radford. LMFAO.
As for the interview it backs up some of the suspicions I've posted on here about how much Gentle and McRae's recruitment has set the club back. Pearson must have learnt a great deal about the game in the last two and a half years that's for sure. Seeing the likes of Joe Arundel, Jacob Miller and like coining it in big time at his expense must rankle a bit - no wonder he feels it perfectly legitimate to voice his displeasure at the previous incumbents. I read with interest people thinking he's 'too harsh' criticising Gentle and McRae all the time. Easy to say that when it's not your cash being frittered. Also had it not been for Lee Radford and an injury to Shannon McDonnell then we'd not have seen Lineham or Shaul play at all last year - would have been interesting to see how Nick Youngquest went for us I suppose.
Finally I read in some posts about this being the 'last chance saloon' for AP. Actually AP is 'the last chance saloon' for Hull FC in my opinion. As he states clearly there isn't a queue of people offering him money for the club. He needs the backing of the fans more than ever that's clear - for those that walk away and expect to pop back when things are better you'd better hope that AP hasn't done a runner by then as well otherwise there'll be nothing to pop back to.'"
But he was brainwashed by McRae and Gentle is a much more sensible theory obviously.
I still don't understand how the recruitment last year has set us back so much that finishing 12th is anything other than a complete farce. Even the most pessimistic fans wouldn't have predicted lower than 9/10 for us this season yet suddenly with hindsight the squad is complete rubbish. It's excuses plain and simple.
