Article just appeared on Twitter by John Davidson that says some talk of Andy Last joining us as joint assistant coach replacing Gilmour. Would be a fantastic appointment in my view.

I think it would be a great move, he did well at Hull, but has been at the club all his rugby life and needs to move to another club. Has too many Radford traits in his coaching so working at another club will do him good.

Would've thought he would be looking at a head coach role although I concede there arnt many out there right now. He aquited himself well as HFC's interim coach and if things did go pear shaped next season at least there is an option in house.

The more support Chester has the better. He looked a broken man many a times over the past two years. With Poching and Last, hopefully he will be able to bounce some ideas about.

Sounds good though I don’t know much about him. Certainly a back room revamp in a big way. Maybe that was where the problem was?

I’m not a big lover of Hull FC, but I quite liked how AL got them playing and sounded like a knowledgeable bloke and came over as a decent bloke in the interviews, massive upgrade on Radford.

It’s a fantastic appointment if true imo. Anyone who gets an assistant gig for England to Shaun wane must have something about them. Seems he’s had to work and learn hard from some good coaches and players at Hull. Good little interview with him here https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.skys ... he-shadows

If true great appoitment plenty of good support for chris now onwards and upwards

Now Confirmed, good appointment for Andy and you.

Potential head coach if Chester doesnt deliver this season?

Hulls loss our gain I’d say . Well done to all involved at the club

Really good bit of business.

Very pleased to have secured such an experienced coach.

Did a cracking job in difficult circumstances at Hull last year and in my opinion hard done to, to not get the job permanently.

I think it's a good deal for everyone involved. He clearly has talent as a coach but Hull FC is all he knows. He has been at the club for about 20 years. We needed a new direction and someone with fresh ideas and I think we have done the right thing by moving on from Last and going with Hodgson. You gain a good assistant coach, and he gains more experience at a different club and potentially another shot at a head coach position in the not too distant future.

I wish him all the best and I'm sorry to see him go, but I do think it's the right move for everyone.
