Quote: FlexWheeler "Hull FC, Leeds, Warrington. These clubs have the resources and the size to be serial grand final winners, yet they’ve seemingly just given up the ghost on the pitch.

They are just existing, in a malaise of mid-table nothingness.

Hull FC this season might even be worse than some of the Leeds ‘teams of recent years’.

Saints or Wigan will win the grand final this year and will continue to clean up for the foreseeable future.

The mediocrity of Leeds, Warrington and hull is really bad for the competition. They can do so much better.'"

well good old Wire you know the mediocre team were anything but and the entertainers icon_lol.gif were anything but (ok it was entertaining but not for St Helens).

Although we (Hull FC) have been awful for a few years, I don't know where this perception of resources comes from. We have an owner that isn't wealthy and takes a wage from the club, the Stadium is a noose around our necks as we don't make any money from it.

We had a 500k+ Covid loan to repay in the first part of this year, and what annoys Hull fans isn't the fact that we may be spending way less than Cap to pay the loan off, its the consistent rhetoric from Pearson that we are spending up to the Cap. We can't be - and if we are, then there is some serious mis-management of the Cap happening. If he had come out (before selling 8k Season Passes) to say that this years squad would be under Cap, with a lot of youth being given a chance, for the reason above, fans could get on board with that.

As it is, the fans have been vocal about their dis-satisfaction, and he's sacked the Coach, appointed a DoR (whether he is a success or not, he is more experience than the person who was 'doing' that role before him), and we have some promising investment on the horizon which we know we needed

So were Sheffield. Another semi pro club without a stadium and who couldn’t afford an academy. Just like Leigh

Roy, do you not think it's time you started to engage in proper RL discussions, and be constructive instead of taking every opportunity to berate certain users on these forums? It's getting tedious now lad. icon_rolleyes.gif
