Quoted from GrimRob


Bignot tried to change too much too quickly. If he had played his cards right he could have had a decent spell here and achieved things. But following a succesful regime with mass change the way meant he did he was always going to be shown the door at some stage. Slade's a steadier pair of hands as you say, had we had him first and the Bignot it might have worked out better!


I'm not going to argue about it but I believe Slade has signed more players than Bignot did.

Perhaps one of the underlying reasons that there are so many threads about this is that a significant number of fans are experiencing anomie due to their constant disenfranchisement and need a cathartic outlet.

Quoted from GrimRob
After six years of non-stop promotion campaigns and three managers last season it's going to take time to build up momentum again! The class of 2016 has gone, somebody (whether that is RS remains to be seen) needs to be given the time to move us up from our lower mid-table perch. It might take another six years. Hull were in this division for nine years I think in the 90s, and for most of that time were nowhere near the top!


You make the bit in bold sound like a hardship - please remember that this was caused by relegation to the Dog & Duck League!

I think I'm intelligent enough to get the message from one thread. What doesn't work for me is reading the same thing on thread after thread. I've been around long enough to see far worse than the way things are panning out after 10 games.  The response to the current situation is wildly disproportionate and given that there seems to be a core of a dozen or so posters repeating the same stuff maybe not as well supported as you might think.



These so called core of a dozen or more posters must be sat near each other in the Youngs stand as there were several shouts of "this is crap" and "sort it Fenty".

Isn't that what the Fishy is for?

It 's OK I didn't consider it any sort of cheap shot. Our little corner of the Pontoon is hardly known for raging positivity though is it?  


No Ian should be renamed the Waldorf and Stadtler Stand.

Don't want to bring Hurst into the conversation again but he did well at 2 clubs before he joined us and since he left, he rescued a team from a perilous situation and now has them flying at the top of League 1. It took him ages to sort us out and still there was an element of luck to our promotion. Perhaps some fans are right and there just isn't the infrastructure here for a manager to succeed. Hurst and Bignot have both had a pop at our club since they left and also while they were here.

Hands up those who had to look up the word anomie.

And that has precisely what to do with there being a core of a dozen or so on here who start and contribute to the majority of threads of a negative nature?

Funnily enough, someone made that comment last night. Said it feels like a well attended reserve game or a pre season friendly.

There doesn't seem to be any mavericks in football now. Someone like Pouton or Cumming to get you out of your seat. It feels like 22 massive blokes who are super fit trying to kick a football to death.


The idea of Dembele being described as massive is the most amusing thing I've read on here in the last 24 hours.
