I think as fans we have to be realistic, to players it is a job and mainly they have a mercinary outlook and have very little interest in what the club stands for or what the fans think.

I have had the pleasure to play with many ex pros and all bar none share this outlook. Loyalty and love of the club is the domain of the supporters and unless we are to adopt a Lazio/serie A approch to ultra fanaticism and protest at the training ground, I am afraid this will always be the case.

The club and the fans will remain long after the board/coach/players are gone, they are only custodians of our club, currently I feel we are being taken for granted but then again that seems to be the role of the Hull Fc fan.

I take no pleasure in the fact that i called our plight back in April when i composed this thread and my feelings back then where spot on. Im sure most on here knew we simply aint good enough. The fact of the matter is that things at our beloved club ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH. I was hoping to wake up this morning with the news that AGAR and Sharpe had been sacked but alas no. last year 12 teams where in SL and we finished 11th out of that 12 this year we have finished bottom so in my eyes we have finished last as i discounted Celtic/Salford a new teams always struggle.Hull are a laughing stock by far the worst team to grace our great club.

Rant over

You were certainly critised for your opinion back then but unfortunately you were spot on.

I will not be attending the remaining fixtures and will not be renewing my pass for next season whilst Agar/Sharp are still in charge.

Sorry to say this but looking at it another way.
IF...............the format was 12 teams as last season we would now be bottom and favourites for relegation.

Why would we? If there was relegation there would have been promotion, and the promoted team/s would likely still be below us as now. If there was no relegation then we might well have finished bottom but clearly wouldn't have been relegated.

We're quite bad enough in the real world without having to invent imaginary scenarios where we might be even worse FFS.

Tell you what the guy was right !!!!
I posted in May that we would be doomed to bottom 2 but cannot/have not got time to find the post etc
Hat's off to the Legend for taking stick and I can't believe how many posters on here gave him stick when he had the foresight that many of you didn't/will never have.
Nobody likes a doomesday merchant but the guy had good cause - Hull KR away last Sept was shocking to say the least.
They are not playing for Agar and never will.

I just wish agar and the rest of the first team staff and the directors would just $%^^&^%$£££$%^ off

The club is a laughing stock and they are making it worse.

Any other coach in SL could have done better with what we had then this clown
