As an outsider looking in (I'm a Hull fan btw), it seems to me that you all fell for the spin at the start of the year when in reality you had signed some very avarage players.
Hull are no world beaters but when I look at your squad theres probably no more than 4 players that would bring anything to my side. Even them wouldnt be guaranteed a game.
ITs alright blaming Potter but in reality he has very little to work with, I guess he has the chance to prove his quality by getting rid of the deadwood over the next couple of years and building a useful squad. With these players you are going nowhere no matter who is in charge.
Amongst the very average players, I belive Diskin and Elima were above average, and I hoped Hargreaves would prove to be so, although he has disappointed me somewhat.
As another poster said, our strongest 17 is better than our position atm. We still do have some quality players - L'Estrange, Kearney, Elima, Langley. But all of them have spent time out with injury and the players who have come into cover are not good enough in alot of cases. Given we were told the squad now had the depth to deal with this it is a little disappointing.
Although you have to consider us very unlucky as the two players we probably need on the park the most (Kearney & Heath) are the ones who've picked up the longer injuries.
