Lineham has played a lot better on the left wing than when he was on the right. I hope he stays.

I’m a massive fan of Charnley who I personally think has a great all-round game too.

Charnley rightly gets the plaudits he deserves, but Lineham is very underrated - he has a fantastic strike rate, is rarely caught out of position (I guess having Goodwin inside helps) and works hard bringing the ball away even if he doesn’t appear as enthusiastic as Charnley.

I hope we are able to keep both of them. Charnley is the better of the two, but Lineham is big, strong and a very good finisher. Quicker than you’d expect too once he gets going.

Incidentally, is he really that homesick for the York area? Or is it just that he still doesn’t get on with his snobby neighbours over here.

I would imagine he would be a better fit at Leeds than Hull, should the opportunity come along at the end of the season.

Jon Clarke on the pitch at Twickenham with England in the 6 Nations and Luther Burrell turning out weekly at the HJ...just wish I’d taken a bet on that one

Stuart Barnes to be match day announcer... you heard it here first.

More chance of John Inverdale

Not sure what all the fuss (on either side) is personally - he's no mug and played centre for England a few years back. Reasonably big and quick, but I can't see him playing in the pack for us. Good PR though.

Interesting reading the reactions at the time. Given that Burrell counted off the salary cap this was seen by a lot of people as a good bit of business from the club.

Too much of a troll fest, less of an interesting reading, sadly.

More like awkward reading of seeing fans of other clubs being ridiculed by us for having takes on this signing that turned out to be accurate whilst Wire fans showered plaudits on the club for its genius recruitment.

Still haven’t seen an announcement which has been coming ‘tomorrow’ for the last couple of weeks

Not all of them!

Not “genius recruitment “ but praised for trying something different. It was an experiment, everyone knew that but was seen as low risk. It hasn’t paid off, move on.

It raised the profile of the club, and got us a tiny bit of recognition in the mainstream media. Positive, at the time.

Not exactly "burned it up", but leaves the club (eventually) with no ill feeling. Not every signing can be a success. We live and learn.
