    Constant negative posting does mine in, but there you go

    So what’s your excuse for the rest of the season?

    Stewart makes the bench. Ballard is playing. Surely they’re positive things?

    Embleton and Neil will never be decent footballers as long as they have holes in their arses, Gooch is not far behind.
    Watch how many times they lose the ball and miss place passes

    Very poor so far this half. Offered zero threat. Both of our full backs have been poor with the fall. Need more from the front 4 too. Neil and Evans have done well. As have the centre backs

    Odd first half. It was a poor one, but we created the better chances. Get Roberts, Bennette and Stewart on and we'll win this. Hull are utter ****e. Ba needs to come on for Neil.

    Lucky to be level but Hull look vulnerable at the back and we are still well in this game w,th a strong bench its there to win

    We have been poor and Hull worse (despite the refs best efforts to give them a hand!).

    Going by our recent form we should be in for a good half after a ****e one!

    They're nervous playing out but we're not pressing enough.

    We need to move the ball forward much quicker.

    Neil isn't affecting the game much.

    We should win this as they push on, just need a good quick break.

    Roberts has done little so far this season when he has come on, better options than him on the bench imo.

    Prichard is a massive massive miss.

    Alese doesn't want to cross the hallway line, Cirkin usually does.

    We have enough on the bench to trouble them if we put them on early enough.

    Not great but it's there to win.
    Get Stewart on for at least 30 minutes :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Thought that’d be the case as soon as I saw the team. Embleton isn’t anywhere near that level unfortunately.

    Agreed. I
    Like Alese as a player but I don’t think he suits full back. Centre back is his best position for me. Cirkin looks good everywhere!!

    Agreed. Amazingly Tone seems to not want to play Cirkin. Blowing my mind a little.
