It’s a step up from nappy changing facilities!

The programme is awful, I watch Hulls highlights then turn it off and look forward to ‘The Footyshow’ on Thursday.

FWIW i think Cullen is a pretty decent coach but was just very unfortunate to coach at a bad club like Warrington.

That and the fact that being a fan and former player he was unable to tackle some of the thornier issues there.

This coming from a Hull FC fan? Oh come on, even the rest of you Hull fans must see the irony in that post!

That's why I live in London - I watch Quins

But have you seen some of our tries at Bradford? Some awesome ball handling and wide running!

This is a coincidence as i've just emailed Boots n All for the first time about this. Was bad enough during the Huddersfield game but then last nights show topped that comfortably. If that had been Wire going 5 wins on the bounce at Bradford, I somehow don't think EH would be bleating on about the shirts.

After the live game win over the Giants, it was all about how poor the Giants played. The fact they had some players injured (camera showing Crabtree in stands ) was mentioned a few times during the broadcast with no mention whatsoever of the 6 first teamers Hull were missing. Phil Clarke also highlighted how 4 in 12 of Hull's trys had come from kicks by this stage. A 1 in 3 ratio would seem about the norm these days with the Giants then scoring a 'fantastic' opening try via a kick, but no mention of this having not being quite the same as scoring a 'normal' try. Earlier in the season both Wigan's trys at Hull were from kicks, didn't see any negative anaylisis of this though. Well, you wouldn't from Mr Clarke would you.

Meanwhile on yesterdays Boots n All as Hull were tearing Bradford to pieces, it was far more important that the viewers realise that Hull's numbers on their away strip are a commentators nightmare. Fair point, I agree, but why not wait until the end of the analysis? Paul Cullen mentioned a few big units missing for Bradford. Really? A pack of Lynch, Newton, Scruton, Menzies, Morrison, Langley and Burgess sounds rather decent to me. How many of Hull's pack (on paper) would be chosen by the Sky 'experts' to get into that Bradford pack?

Cretins.
