Could be Danny Orr as assistant coach, leaving Salford, despite them wanting to keep him.

Big club? He’s become delusional like the rest of you. Mr Lakin manages KR not TS. Maybe Mr Pearson will be better at massaging TS’s ego.

Why are you so bothered?
It really seems to bother you that TS is now at Hull FC with amount of time you’ve spent on the Hull FC pages and posts made. For me TS ticks all the required boxes needed to bring the best out the players, he is experienced & has a proven record of turning the fortunes round at Huddersfield, Wire, Leeds and HKR. I think the saltiness coming from the east side of the city be it fans or media just reinforces to me that AP has made the right decision for our club.
I don’t think I’ve ever known in my time following Hull FC so much said or reported about Hull FC by our rivals across the river when we’ve appointed a head coach.

It is genuinely exciting and interesting times for our club with the huge changes made in the back room and training facilities. Add to that the success of the youth development program, improvements since the Allams left the SMC the feel good factor is coming back. Yes it’s a long road and no guarantees but the probability is much greater with an experienced and proven coach at the helm at last.

I think the animosity is borne out of fear that TS might actually be the one to finally fulfill the potential at FC.

And they know how good he actually was when he was there.

Well put.

I mean, I'll point out things like the last time Rovers won a trophy was during the first half of Queen Elizabeth II's long reign (she was in her fifties at the time) but aside from that I'm not particularly interested. Certainly not with regards who they've signed.

Good post. That did make me giggle In the early hours of a Tuesday morning.

It happens on all sites. FC fans are as guilty as any others. If they look at the present and not continue to live in the past they and you would see that for the last two years we have been the top club in the city. Long may it continue. Looking forward to more bites.

I will give you credit. You have Mikey Lewis on your team. I'll gloat when we get him off you.
