We've competed and shown effort in most games.
Fine lines Jake.'"
And we still have the 3rd worst attack in SL. Effort is great but won't win many games on it's own.

Aye but he's gonna be our head coach next season so we all might as well row in.
And we've got Frank to watch.

| If all the radford knockers think that we would have been in the top four with another coach then your kidding yourselves.We have a good squad but not a great squad and a top four finish IMO was a big ask.Many outside Hull had us down to finish in bottom four ,some bottom two.We look likely to finish 7th and that is far better then predicted. Yes we would all want better but to keep on knocking radford wh without doubt has the players on his side,the players are playing for him and their team mates .Ok we gave some games away and we could have been much better but we are were we are and its about time the Radford knockers gave it a rest

Why not knock Radford??
The club have the structure, the facilities, the finance and a chairman that will spend money. Therefore the squad we have that you say is 'not great' is down to who?? Who's job is it to build a squad that can finish in the top 4?? The coach maybe

I think our squad is as good as cas' squad and they're pushing for 5th, and if it isn't then who is to blame? Presumably the person who has assembled the squad?

| Don't think anybody started off wanting Radford to fail, but plenty went far too early on him and would rather see him fail and save face.

Surely not. All fans must want the team to win every week regardless of who is coach and what they think of him???

You would be wrong.
However they do deny it. It usually starts off with 'I'd love him to succeed, but' or 'nobody wanted him to do well more than me, but'.
There's probably half a dozen posters i'll credit with being consistent, but no more than that.

| Quote WIZEB="WIZEB"Nah, not really.
I had no dislike for PG just didn't think he had it in him.
Don't know if Lee has either but him and his team are giving it a good shot.
The trouble with you and others is that you don't actually want him to make it.
All a bit sad really.'"
But Gentle took us to Wembley and despite an horrendous injury list at times we finished sixth.People may criticise some of the signings Gentle made but the Wembley appearance alone put a lot of money back into the club.
Radford has had his own squad this season, we struggled to make the top eight yet some fans seem to see that as progress.
its fine being competitive on the field but I want a coach who can see the deficiencies on the field and rectify them so that we fans can see progress on the field.I expect us to win matches whoever we are playing especially at home.
With Radford we have not seen progress.he is also guilty of false loyalty to certain players like Yeaman.
It has taken an injury to Yeaman and a young rookie with a bit of pace and good footwork to show just how poor he has been for most of the season yet Radford played him.That to me is not the sign of a good coach.
Whilst I will always support the club my opinion since his appointment has always been we will never be a top team with Radford in charge

Do you think that Mini,Pryce,Sneyd have been bad signings? do you think that Radford would not have brought others in if he could have.The fact is that some want him to fail and getting in the eight has been a huge disappointment for many .The Derby showed what spirit Radford has achieved when in the past losing Ellis and Pryce early would have seen us fold.Radford get flack when we lose but never gets credit when we win and again for many that would be a real No No.Its a real shame that after a good Derby win and top eight secured we still have negativity ..says it all really

To be clear, some fans see that as progress on [ilast year[/i. Which it is. I haven't seen a single poster suggest that this season represents progress over Gentle's last season - at most it's been suggested that we're about at the same level. However, there has been some interesting stats posted on our points return that indicates we could well end up with a superior return overall this season.
I never wanted Radford in the first place. I'm still of the opinion that we need a better coach. But he clearly is getting [isome[/i things right and not giving credit where it's due is plain dishonest IMO.
