| Hull probably have been unlucky with injuries and suspensions so far, but then is it luck or does it come down to training? Or a lack of it?
FC don't look fit, and when your not fit the fatigue soon kicks in, then the penalties and indiscipline follow, as do the injuries.
Jake Clifford just told you all about how easy pre season was under Toys out,
You need someone that's gonna crack the whip and get the players working hard and fully fit, oh and culture is great but attitude is better
Dont tell TS that though or he'll banish you to train the academy (Danny McGuire) or he'll just sack you off (Gareth Ellis) and surround himself with YES men.
Pre seasons obviously finished now so he has no real chance of getting your lads much fitter either, just ticking over what there already doing.

Strange if he has, as he was one of the better ones - especially when in his correct position. If he has gone then it must be about money.

I was really pleased when he was appointed - a vastly experienced head coach with a track record. Just hasn't worked out.
A penny for Gareth Ellis' thoughts today.'"
Ellis could/would have been our interim with Cummins…

| Ellis said he didn't enjoy coaching anymore didn't he.
On another note, wonder if Davidson has gone?

| Thank god he's gone. I never liked him and never wanted him at my club.
No surprise he's failed. I have noticed where this myth of him being a top coach comes from. His coaching career:
Huddersfield.- got them relegated then used days mo eyes t9 get them promoted again
Leeds - got out thoght by John Kear in the CC final, won a lot less thN the clearly useless Brian mcdermott. My granny could have coached that group to a grand final win
GB/England - failure and much worse than macnamara
Warr8ngton - couldn't win the gF despite all of the money and resources at his disposal
Rovers - nearly got them relegated in his first season
Us - makes radford look like a coaching genius
We've been abysmal for most of his tenure. It looks like the players only see each other on match days.
With a limited playing group we need to be super fit and defensively sound. We're neither and he has rightly paid the price
