The feel good factor comes from having two guys in charge who have money and its money the club need to turn this around.
A few big up player reports in the HDM may excite the optimistic and deluded on here but reality is the squad is poor quality put together by a novice whos first major mistake is now seen signing a crocked Abdul on a lucrative three year deal.
You only have to look at our backline of Barron,Hardaker,Chamberlain and Briscoe to see how poor most of Ritchies recruitment has been and if Cross is signed its hardly a major step up.We should be aiming higher and showing R/L that we have ambition and the financial backing of two wealthy owners.
Quality not quantity.He didnt have to sign a player just because he thinks there is no one else around.Get off your backside and find what we need
Lets face it would he be the DOR of Hull Fc if his father in Law was not the part owner of the club.NO
My feeling is we have wasted a building opportunity for 2025 which because of the length of contracts will undoubtably effect what we can do in 2026 when that year should have been the real step up year with three quality possibly marquee players accquired.
Thats highly unlikely now unless we have another large player movement out and that means paying off several contracted players to make room which again costs the club money.
As for me being a Rovers fan thats way off the mark and anyone can see that by simply checking my profile but what i will say is that they have a well laid out strategy for the future a very good coach,lots of ambition and have put together a very good squad for 2025.
Will we get anywhere near defeating them on the pitch i very much doubt it
