Fair enough that he has the right to comment, but to be honest if that's what he said then I can't even remotely see how he's got the slightest valid point. I don't see or speak to anyone changing their mind from week to week, I think most fans are pretty consistent in that they don't think he's up to the job. This board right now shows that, people are still not convinced by him after we've just beaten the champions, the only difference is that they are now getting stick for saying so.

Also, those that have criticising him are not not supporting the club (there's a subtle difference between supporting him and supporting the club). Most, if not all, want the best for the club and believe that he is not consistent with that.

How do you get to the conclusion that MOST fans ??

If his bad coaching is responsible for our losses then it's only fair he gets credit for the wins. Let's face it, that hasn't exactly been an onerous task over the last several months.

He had three hookers on the field at one time and particularly Howarth didn't know where he was supposed to be playing.Thats not coaching
He also continues to use Feka for an innefective 10 mins per game.
Whilst we are short of numbers he should recall Tyson-Wilson from Doncaster because if its only 10 mins he wants from the player then he would be more effective at the moment than Feka.
It was a great effort from the players but its just papering over the cracks and gives Radford a lifeline for another few weeks which we didn't need if you want this club to move forward

Nothing like a good "It's down to the players when we win and the coach when we lose" argument.

By the way he lost Hadley after 5 mins so was probably unable to rotate his fit 17 any other way. What would you have done - played with 12 so we didn't have 3 hookers on at once ?

If we lose to Widnes then he's missed my target of 2 wins from 3 over Easter and I'd get rid personally. I could never, ever be disappointed with a win though unless perhaps it saved KR from relegation. Any fan who wants Hull to lose isn't a fan - that's my opinion and it won't be changed.

I'm just a fan, same as you. However I haven't decided to judge fellow fans for not praising Radford for one win.

Unfortunately, the Internet gives every bonehead a platform.

Cheer up, we are one day closer to Radford leaving the club. Just enjoy the win.

Thanks for the wallpapering metaphor though.

Extrapolated from those I know, sit near, and on here. It's not a fact, just my opinion from the impression I get.

No - but you've told us all when we're allowed to

Some of the vitriol towards Radford on here is disgraceful in my opinion I like to highlight how disingenuous some 'fans' are.

That's not what I said. People are allowed to whenever they want. What I said was when they should be expected to, as in when I think it would be fair to call them into question for not doing so, as you are now.

Personal abuse is not right. Commenting on how he does the job is fair game.
