Who mentioned sacking him, you haven't answered my question, have we improved in 18 months under Hodgson?

Yes we have. So we finish in Top 6 this year which was hulls target. Our academy team doing fantastic. Do we then sack Hodgson?

Experience coach is what we should of gone for, Hodgson seemed a gamble to me that isn't paying off. What sort of time frame would you put on a coach to get you competing? This is his second full season and you'd imagine the bare minimum would be to show significant improvement on past seasons which we ain't seeing

It shouldnt be difficult for any coach to instill discipline on the field yet with this guy its water off a ducks back and is never rectified.
Five penalties given away today on the first tackle in the opposition 10 relieving all the pressure and giving them a leg up field.
Fans think we are unfit yet the amount of unnecessary extra defence we put on ourselves from penalties,errors and six agains is the reason not the fitness.
One thing is now certain Gale and Reynolds both need replacing.
Hodgsons signings so he needs to accept the responsibilty and we dont need to know how good Gale is around the club.Get rid and leave him to his TV appearances with channel 4.

Didn't Jake suffer a knee injury around this time last season and our season went to poop? Really feel for Pearson a good couple of away wins this month then Leeds at home and with Leeds apparent resurgent he could have got a crowd of 14000 plus

So you gonna sack every coach when he makes a mistake?. Cricky we will go through a few. Look am not sticking up for him or the team we should have won. But we are still 5 th when a other on here didn't think we would make top 6. I think we will. We need new players esp halfbacks. We win this we would have been sitting good. One result doesn't make us a bad team. Our hopes this year was making the top 6. We are on track. But our shortcomings are also apparent

You make some fair points. We are 5th which is a lot better than some (me included) thought where we'd be but for a club of our size we should not accept mediocrity and should be aiming higher. At present we are miles off challenging the top.

We finished 4th in the season before Hodgson come in.

Connors out and we stick with our current halfs, we won't finish too 6.

We where is the top 6 this time last year.

I'm not saying sack him, but he has to change things and take some risks

Plus we are now paying for his hair.

Wonder if Balmforth would be any good in the halves? I'm sure I've seen him lining up there for the reserves/academy before. He can't really be any worse than the current 2.

I think we finished 5th or 6th, but I'm sure the fact we beat Warrington officially puts us above them, use to be that way.

Anyway we certainly finished in thecpkay offs and had a cracking win away from home.

Didn't we have a great win at Warrington and got beat in the semi-final play off against Wigan? could be wrong.
