DimmestStar Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 1 hour ago, Old Frightful said: Dimmest Star posts far more regularly on Hull FC topics than that of his own club. As a Hull KR fan, he is obsessed with Hull FC. Shame really, I think it was a Wakey fan who once said of him on here, "All that bitterness can't be healthy", yet he still keeps on spouting it. Bless. OK I'll leave the talking to the players. Hull FC 4-36 Hull Kingston Rovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That score line and result can't be argued with, Hull FC were in a shambolic place towards the end of the season. But there are some Hull KR match threads on here where you haven't even posted, but up pops a Hull FC thread and you're all over it. 1 Hull FC....The Sons of God...

I'm fully aware of that, but you chose to edit out my quote about my comments regarding your repetitive posting on Hull FC threads but sometimes don't even bother posting on match threads involving your club. Tell me why you seem to have far more interest in Hull FC than Hull KR. Hull FC....The Sons of God...

bobbruce Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Just wondering here but does the home ground feel like one to the squad and the players. We know there’s been issues in the past but does that make the players uncomfortable because they feel a bit like visitors to it. Rather than walking into a ground were everythings done to get the best out of the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirmonds pouch Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 18 hours ago, Wellsy4HullFC said: I would agree with much of this, except the evidence you are using is 2 coaches from before Pearson's time (Agar and Kear). I mean, if the issues at the club transcend owners, then I'm not really sure what can be done unless both owners have been making the same mistakes (which to be fair, they could have been!). I blame Danny Houghton. He's been around the longest so it just be his fault! It's not necessarily the owners. All established clubs have a lot of what I will politely call retainers. Ex players, staff, benefactors who have been rattling around the club for years. These people often have far to much influence and the ability to get into peoples ears. Some are just malicious but most don't even know they are causing problems, they are just used to being there and having their opinions listened to. When Ferguson took over at United he realised after a while that the only way he could succeed was to totally isolate his team. He ended up blocking and in some cases banning some important and unimportant people from having contact with players. He totally cleared out the backroom staff, many of whom were club legends. Made him very unpopular for a while until the trophies started to appear. Might not be the case at Hull as I don't really know the club, but as an outsider it always looks that way to me.
