Cartwright for Catalans (Merged Threads)

Catalans surely? Unless he's working as an assistant? -
Absolute garbage quality that. Drama, yes. But this was 2 very poor sides. I'm so disappointed with how Hull have been last 2 games. Some players have played themselves out of contracts next year it seems. We've more lost to all 3 promoted teams. Completely unacceptable. Major major change needs to be happening in the background because this is just woeful. It's not 2024 bad, but the drop from 2025-6 feels worse than 2023-4.

I really can't see how they can go on in SL next year with crowds like this against a big team like Saints.

I think part of the feeling of fatigue comes from the moving of the Cup to earlier in the season. The season is effectively over for many teams already, with a slim chance of getting into the playoffs for some versus already quite comfortably in it for others and just waiting into September. There's no mid season representative fixture. No cup fixtures to progress in. The last 16 of the cup should be in May, quarters June, semis July and final August. There should be a mid season rep. There needs to be some more to the season then just the league to look forward to.

The point I'm making about Club Wembley is more that less discussion was had because there was the perception we were selling more than we were, and also that we were only limited in what we could sell because of it. As soon as they became available, it became glaringly clear what our limit was and it became focal. Has we been getting the crowds from 2017 onwards in 2007 onwards, that conversation would have been had a lot sooner. Wembley is not the draw it once was. The thought of going every year isn't that attractive anymore, especially for the price. I genuinely think the Cup being on the road like it was in the early 00s would breathe life into it. I don't think the Cup needs Wembley as much as people think it does, and it seems the ones saying it does are those that have memories of old Wembley more than new.
