Good job you put the whistle in.Terminal decline....got more pass holders than your average home support,a chairman we now trust and a coach WHO turned you down and a director of rugby who you treated like $hit and knows far more than the total to$$er who is Simms.As for on the up...the only thing going up is your debts and the planes taking your Aussie coaches home after they realise what a balls up your club is
Come on Baldy, lighten up a little fella! I thought the 'whistle' would be a little more subtle than the 'wink'. FWIW, you've got a fair few correct points there (maybe put with a little too much hostility tho
). Generally speaking our club has been a laughing stock for as long as I can remember. Our crowds are poor as we're not a rugby league hotbed like Wigan, Hull etc and we've done well to stay at the top table of RL for so long with all the obstacles we've faced as a club. If we're going to mock Salford for their perceived underachievement surely FC should be ridiculed for their lack of success over the past 30 years (a couple of CC's apart)? Oh & on the Simms issue, again you're probably correct, however, there's also a portly moustachioed fella currently on your payroll who almost destroyed our club over his 4 years in charge. One final point I'd like to make is that, from reading your forum the last few days, it seems like a large portion of your fanbase have massive delusions of grandeur! For all your strengths as a club (attendances, stadium etc) you're way below bracketing yourselves with the likes of Wigan, Saints & Leeds. Top 6 aspirations yes but don't get ahead of yourselves & give it the big 'i am'. BTW, I've nothing against Hull FC but think there's some unjustified arrogance being shown by some of your fans. Anyways, good luck for the season & hopefully we'll prove Friday wasn't a fluke & run you close up at the KC.
