Connor Wynne twitter page interesting reading, basically saying should stop looking at the players……

Being 18th man at Fev is certainly sticking it to TS….

Wow, I would like to think this was all part of a master plan.........................

But No this is Hull FC in absolute freefall. Hoy & Okunbor both pulled at half time, not even put on the bikes so were clearly told they were done for the day. Like to have been a fly on the wall !!

AP is entitled to a holiday & to draw a decent wage for his investment BUT FFS lets be hearing from him soon. Two ways this goes:-

1). New signings arrive over the hill & turn our fortunes around ( with or without TS ).
2) Nobody arrives & the downward spiral continues...............

Oh ive got no doubt it was his Dad, just making the point that you cant be sacked for a relative making social media comments. Some people hate their relatives and would be posting all sorts if so!

The criticism was pretty specific though. Leaves the club in no doubt where it came from.

People want players with poor attitude gone such as Connor, but there was no evidence of his poor attitude, whilst there are certainly some for Hoy, add to this Hoy hasn't performed no where near Connors level, I can't see how anyone can be too upset.

Hopefully Sao, Okunbor and Carlos to follow at least at the end ofvthecseason.

ISaying that, f we don't bring in another overseas player then it's a waste of time and money.

It's surely the DJ (the CEO one) who has brought the Club into disrepute and should go. He is the common denominator in all of this shockingly bad recruitment and retention. Pearson should be doing the CEO stuff for his drawings and put Clarke's salary into players.

I’m not a betting man per se but I think the odds on favourite is No. 2

No 1 should read over the hill signings

I don't think I'd target a 7 for this season if Hoy goes, think I'd go with Charles, Trueman and Smith. Trueman if fit will make a huge difference, look at our win ratio last season and how much better Clifford was.

I think we have a greater need at either centre, backrow or loose forward.

Won't achive anything this season, so give Charles some gametime.

Sneyd too

Come to Hull, don't put much effort in, get a nice little pay off (I know this doesn't apply to all these players).
