| Quote ="Jake the Peg"You see mate, we're just on different sides of the coin. I've also seen much worse than we have right now, but at least there was a reason then. We were skint, the playing roster was poor, we were playing in a clapped out stadium with part time players.
Fast forward 15 years and we are one of the best off clubs in the league, playing in a state of the art stadium in front of the 3rd highest attendances in SL. So you have to ask yourself what is wrong? We are consistently left lacking when it really matters, play the most boring brand of rugby in SL and haven't had a decent, fit half back since 2006.
I think that we deserve better, obviously you're content with things. We'll have to agree to differ'"
Your right! We deserve ALOT better!

| Quote ="FC Guvnor"Jake, I remember going to Spotland in the mid nineties and getting tonked, also regularly getting beaten by the likes of Keighley, Oldham, Doncaster, Whitehaven etc. These days are blossoming compared to that. Last season under such a poor coach, we finished 4 games off 2nd place, behind a club we also did the double over, gaining what 12 or 14 points more than the season before, whilst never having a consistant half back pairing. I care about my club and I would love them to be winning trophies year in, year out, but I also understand that realistically there are 6 or 7 other clubs who in reality have as good a chance as us.
I have been patronised by many people in my life and although unfortunately at this time my black and white garden is not blooming as well as it could be, but I am just greatful that I don't possess the negativity and bitterness towards our club that you do, I follow Hull through thick and thin, always have and always will, I take the good times as I do the bad times and I love my club. My suggestion to you is look where we have been in the past 20 years, appreciate the fact we have some genuine stars in our black and white shirt, accept the fact that we are improving under Agar ( points don't lie ) and try to look forward to another season of uncontrolled highs and heart sinking lows, because they wll happen.'"
Agree with 90%
But "we are improving under Agar" we couldnt have got worse, than finish 12th the season before.
With the players at his disposal, last season such as Long,Berrigan,O Meley ,Fitzgibbon. if we didnt make the 6 - he should have been sacked.
Our problem is other teams, are improving at a faster rate,than we are.

| I wonder if there will be any signings announced before the forum on Wednesday. Think their will be some angry fans on Wednesday if still no news on any new signings.
Anasta would be a class signing, but what sort of money would he want and when would he arrive due to the visa issues?

| So your happy with the squad at the minute? Granted a decent win today and by the sounds of it the young lads did well, but we have let a former test and soo player go and have not replaced him. Agar said we needed half back cover before we let berro go, so whats changed now. I think the fans will be anger because with 3 weeks till the new season we have no real cover at 9 or 7. I would love horne and long to play every game this season, but I cant see it. Can you?

Ha ha yea I know. If we dont sign any cover for 7 and 9 then agar can not use the injuries to our halves excuse this year imo. They have had 12 months to get this sorted.

Yeah you're right we will, but I'm happy to stick my neck out and say we will get more points this season than last, because I believe our squad is improving and will compete with the top 4 this year.
So a challange for you, I'll put up £150 and say we get more points than last year, do you fancy it ?
I ran one of the days on the Prekkie marathon last year, so the loser could donate it to the Steve Prescott foundation. I realise money is tight with alot of people at the moment, but if you could afford to lose, do you want to take up my offer ?

| Don't know if its been mentioned on here but Rugby League had a minutes slot on 'Sky Sports News' last week and it was at the 'meet the players' day and Longy got interviewed and they asked him about maybe playing another year, i turned to the missus and said Hull will offer him another year on top...He said if his bodies up to it he'll play but then said the fans will let him know if he's not up to it....Please dont carry on, go into coaching

The lad has trained his guts out, lost a bit of flab and looks in great shape mate, if he has a good season and helps bring some sucess i can see many on here being somewhat embarrassed at the shart levelled his way .
In the terms of modern sportsmen he is not old FFS and looks after himself nowadays
