Re: Radford out : Thu Sep 12, 2019 9:03 pm  

All the fans fault again, I must remeber to cheer more when we are 40 points down, maybe the team will come back and win.

When he blames the fans for watching a team that show no effort on the field which he puts out and is responsible for just really gets me annoyed.

I glad he mentioned London and how they never give up, Mr Radford can you please mention that to Hull Fc players from time to time as they have it in spades and we do not have ti at all the last two seasons.

ps
Swap the brand of boring rugby for something a little more exciting if I want to watch a team just try to barge over the line time after time I go watch that at my local playing fields.

Start blaming the fans and you’re in the deepest of Shiite

Chicago Bears have incredible loyal fans

Get this though
In the first NFL match of the new season last
week , the Bears fan were booing on the first quarter and all the way through the match

They wanting entertaining and they were being served up rubbish by a usual good side

Bears fans are loyal and amazing

They’ve earned the right, like Hull fans, to show their displeasure at shoitehouse rugby with no passion defence

If you actually listen to what he said, which was that, every club has supporters and fans, and the two are different. All clubs need both, but it is the supporters who, support the club when things are not going well. Fans come and go depending on success or otherwise.
All he said was that the club needs more supporters.

By definition, a supporter is someone who purchases a season ticket thus putting money into the club. Seeing as how we have a little over 8000 season pass holders and approximately 2500 walkups, I would suggest to you and the club officials that the majority of match attendees ARE SUPPORTERS. I’d suggest by his interview, he’s once again having a go at the atmosphere at the KC and I’ll reiterate what I posted earlier, if Radford and Pearson want a vibrant atmosphere, give me a vibrant type of rugby to watch instead of 5 drives and a kick, up till then, I’ll probably sit there with my head in my hands, give me something to cheer for FFS.

Pearson alluded to that on Sports Talk this week. He acknowledged that the pre-match and half time stuff is old, boring etc. He then said that people don't mind about that too much if the team are playing well and winning

Can't believe he thinks that 3 blokes walking around the pitch chucking balls out of a plastic bag is boring.

For what it's worth I agree with most of what you say, what I don't agree with is, the assertion that Radford, and Pearson, are 'having a go' at anyone. They are merely stating the fact that we need to maintain and, if possible, increase our support base, and are asking us not to abandon faith in them. To that end, the squad is being improved and other areas are being looked at.
Whether we see any changes is a different matter.

Re: Radford out : Fri Sep 13, 2019 11:40 am  

Radford has blamed the atmosphere at the KC a few times and puts it down to why the team play badly, in my 50+ years of supporting Hull Fc I have witnessed great teams and really bad teams. The atmosphere comes from exciting the fans, did anyone go to the Derby match earlier in the year that was pretty good but I guess we were winning, how about the 27-26 win beating saints in 2010 that was pretty noisy as well. (Be happy with that result tonight)

If you want atmosphere you have to give the fans something to cheer about and not blame them for the team not playing well, not the first time he has done a post in the mail, I was never a Radford out guy but he needs to take a look at himself.
