Mr Negative has spoken. With all the money you spend on the club sat by the radio we should be at full cap

We could win the treble and WCC and people would still whinge.

Really don't think our recruitment so far has been that bad, and could potentially get better with the two unknown signings.

Disagree, pretty excited about Walker and Ese'ese.

Pele, Tindall and Okunbor have potential too.

If (and its a big if) we can sign a decent halfback and backrower, along with Smith and Ashworth I think we will have done pretty well.

Think/hope Pele ashworth will do well

But the signings overall are they better than players going out ?

Doubt it

Clifford
Swift
Taylor
Satae
Griffin
Savelio were all our better players we had esp the top 2

The weaknesses are still at the club

Cross Jez Litten off the list, just signed a 4 year deal with KR. Bit silly on their part.

He said if we win the lot people would still winge. So what's your point ? Apart from the obvious

Josh Simm has signed for Cas. I'm interested to see how he goes. Always though he had the frame to be a good winger but he's just still pretty raw (22 years old and played less than 50 games).

Not an argument that I can see gaining much traction when Pearson is making his case for loan restructuring to the department of culture, media and sport.

The idea that Rovers and England player Jez Litten was ever going to sign for Hull was utterly fanciful. Like Josh Hodgson you let him slip away and he's 100% a robin now.

The Rovers hooker you were trying and failing to sign wasn't Litten or Parcell it was Lennie Ellis.

The two signings could be Cleary and Yeo and the same people would still be moaning
