Whats the beer like in Hull?

He could learn from Danny Orr that the grass may not be greener at the 'bigger' clubs?

Would be very strange for Cas who are threatened with dropping out of SL in the next round of Franchises, to lose one of their players they have seen progress through their youth and academy setup into the first team. The quota is 8 I believe, if Westerman goes, how many do Cas have?

cas homegrown players
that played in 2010:
richard owen, craig huby, nathan massey, jordan thompson, john davies, oliver holmes, jonathan walker, joe arundel

2011 players adding to 1st team:
daryl clark, billy harris, sam orange, danny orr

# players i would expect to be first team regulers next season,we are hardly a club that will struggle to produce home grown players.from what i have been told westerman wont even disguss a new contract and the club would lose him for nothing in 12 months time something we have just happend in shenton and the club rightly are now cashing in while he his worth something thats good business imo.

Why does he want away though? To Hull? It's not as if they're obviously more likely to gain silverware than Cas, he's already in the England squad so it's not affecting his international chances. Sounds like trouble behind the scenes to me.

Wet,and a lightish brown colour with froth on top.

Unfortunatly correct,but its like night following day,its just going to happen.

If it is true, maybe he just wants away for a change of scene. FC may not be challenging for silverware, but we have a better stadium, more than double the attendances of Cas and there are fewer better loose forwards to learn from than Fitzgibbon, (even if he is the pi$$head that a Rovers fan alleges on here ). It's hardly a backwards move for him, is it?

Maybe not obvious, but I think most people will agree that he has more chance to of winning things at Hull than Cas as things stand and for the next few years.

Hull are just about the best club off the field, just need it right on the field, the board are showing their ambition by willing to pay out a big transfer (our 2nd big offer for a player in the last few weeks).

Another solid year this year, with some small improvements, 2011 when we lose a few quota players and big earners should see Hull hopefully challenging the top teams again.

haha...i was actually out in Empire Kings Cross that year and that occasion...'tis true, got the pics to prove it. All good guys to be fair, had a cracking night

sweeeeeet. I bet Joe cant wait to get started

I do hope it's a false rumour that Westerman has gone to HullFC for £175k.
For that signing on fee someone at Cas is very clever and someone at Hull is plain stupid.
Wigan, Saints, Wire or Leeds wouldn't sign him for free I'm sure.
Good luck to HullFC, they'll need it.

That Might James Rule Then, But i can't see fc paying £175,000 for joe
