Its amazing how you can turn anything thet happens in rugby into a negative about Hull.

He’s not wont hough is he…Catalan wasn’t great last week and even worse today.London moved the ball well and look a damn sight faster in attack than we are.

He isn't, but he posts like he is telling something we don't know, we aren't very good, we all know that.

Catalans are a funny side, beat Rovers at CP not long ago, which only Warrington have this season.

If we can put out a side like we did against Wigan, we will best London, add in Cartwright, Sao, Ese Ese nd Eseh our pack looks a whole lot better and bigger.

I think we will win 3 more games, London, Cas and one more game.

We aren't very good, but a few teams above us aren't great either.

I need to continually post in the hope it sinks in

Well we all know we love em and we all will stick anything out with them, but my initial feeling when we are vying for the bottom spot and 'success this year' would now been seen if we avoid it, and doing it against a team of part timers who know that they are 'going down', is that its all pretty embarrassing really.

Yes that was my point wilf.
It’s depressing how far we have declined.

It also shows how studid the decision was by the spreadsheet Charlies to scrap promotion and relegation.No end of season excitement or pressure in a battle for relegation
Now there is no pressure on us and no incentive for London just pride as its well known that Wakefield have the S/L spot for next season.
Would have been interesting in hindsight to see how different our approach to recuitment would have been had relegation been a threat

I was feeling reasonably positive until yesterday. Still not sure if I'm renewing my pass next year. If I don't I'll write a lengthy piece on here accompanied by the old simon bates our tune theme. There won't be a dry eye in the house

Re: TV Games - Not Hull : Sun Aug 04, 2024 5:58 pm  

I’d be looking at both Ellis and Sheridan at London to join us…like Dave K said,Sheridan attack coach and I’d have Ellis as assistant to Cartwright.On a side note…wonder why Sheridan didn’t follow Powell to wakey?….

Tremendous result, well for London at any rate!

At least we no longer have the ignominy of being the only side to lose to them this season!
The down side to this is the possibility of us finishing bottom has reared up once more, which gives a bit of edge to the game in two weeks time.

It's not good for any sport to have a side who are uncompetitive and who become ritual whipping boys, but if we were to finish bottom of the pile (which I personally don't think we will) it would open up some awkward questions about our own competitiveness!

It may work in our favour, give us something to play for, focus our minds over the last few weeks.

the biggest worry we have as fans is the 'things being still up in the air' about who ends up in super league comments from the London chairman and it wouldn't surprise me if the owners kick out SMG and change the goal posts again. Then we are in trouble
