I agree with this point, but it's something Gentle may wish to consider before he gives his post-match press conference.

Gentle has admitted he possibly overreacted immediately after Widnes. He probably did as well but he was saying what most of the fans were saying. Whilst he has to keep a level head in his job it's refreshing to see how much it means to him IMO.

Didn't see that bit. Hopefully he'll learn from it, because all sweeping statements like that do is leave him open to (largely unwarranted) criticism.

No , I want players who are on "form" recalled to the side , If here injured then fair do's but it seems strange that one of the two players nearly made last weeks shambolic side but is still not available this week .

The official line is that both are unfit. I don't see any logical reason to question that. Unless you think we're being lied to?

For the last two weeks Holdsworth has been in the squad only to be missing from the team.

I had a strong feeling last Saturday morning that he wouldn't be in the team at Widnes despite what was being said.

Maybe not being lied too. But not being told the whole facts?

Holdsworth was only ruled out late on - hence Seymour being drafted in at the last minute when he hadn't even been named in the 19. Not to mention the fact that ever single coach on the planet likes to keep information on players who might be marginal hidden from the opposition for as long as possible.

There are plenty of perfectly obvious and understandable reasons for everything that's happening at the moment. Why do people want to go looking for conspiracies?

I hope we bomb Tansey consistently tonight, was a nightmare under the high ball for us.

With any sense Hull will kick to Carney at every opportunity. If the fb gets a quick ptb in and he has the chance to run into a broken field Hull's defence will be in trouble.
