And this Hull junior coach is ?.Would think GH and AG are better men than to fudge a press statement like that.

This scenario would certainly explain the delay in the announcement, although I would have thought they would not have phrased the press release announcing it, as leaving it to Kyle to choose if he had already agreed to sign for Hull. Clearly, if he does sign for Hull via Leeds, then our club are going to have some explaining to do regarding why they seemingly went along with misleading us.

If it's an announcement being made either at the match or in the programme, why would it be anything other than positive news? They aren't going to announce that Amor won't be at BV next year either before the match or at half time as he'd only get booed for the rest of the match if that happened.

Seems fairly straight forward then,and there are a couple of ways it could pan out really, A: If Kyle decides to go back to Leeds and he is aware of any plan to sell him straight on to Hull, then this is something he must have factored into his decision, and everythings Kosher and above board,not a happy scenario but thats life and we move on, OR B: Kyle stays at Trin and he is already well into the 3 year provisional contract he signed with us at the end of last season,again all kosher and everybodys happy. Not a brilliant way of doing business in my book but if the end justifies the means then fair enough. Much as I dislike the Loiners I can't really find a way to be harsh on them for this.

Agreed.

Think if they are making such a big thing of this, its a new big signing for next year Mathers or Sykes would be good news but not amazingly exciting news.

Def Paul Aiton extension or at least that will be part of announcement.

This.

Just been speaking to Paul Aiton in Sandal Post Office, never thought should have asked him. One thing is certain he is a really nice guy and we had a conversation about tomorrows game and the Players genuinely believe that we can make the top 8. He'd hoped to make the Widnes game but it's looking unlikey so I told him he'd have to be back for the play offs.

I too have heard that the announcement is the resigning of Mathers. Slightly off topic, but was it this time last year that Semi had signed for us? Never know, could be another impressive signing.

The man from the Wolves is on is way back, Solomona, also mason on is way

Wouldn't say no to solo for a year and for two short stints in 2nd row.

Mason suppose would be a direct replacement for James if he goes.

Solomona isn't needed, we've enough back rowers and with Ali one of a similar ilk.

Interesting - a fellow poster text me yesterday to say that he'd just spotted Tony Smith at the Cedar Court hotel; it starts to add up.

Dont need solo or mason as we have players that are doing a great job in those positions.If you are going to sign players for positions that are well covered you have to bring a better stamp of player in otherwise whats the point.
