Well thats a big suprise that is.

Its a good job we kept hold of Mariano, i realise Tusons a far better player and its for the best

Let's see if this comes to fruition.
Did Agar go to Oz looking for players as he was pretty sure that Tuson wasn't coming and knew what he could spend?

OK hes gone,but i hope Anakin & Trout are the future.

Wonder if a Hull FC will let Paul Johnson go now? He'd be worth re-signing for Wakey now we've saved the Tuson money.

Carter told the Express last week that if Tuson decided not to move to Wakefield the money would be invested into another player signing.

I never rated Johnson especially when a prop, lightweight and too small.

Tuson tweeted last night to apologise to Wakey fans but hopes we understand his decision to join Hull.

No qualms about it whatsoever - the lad has to look after himself.

Lets see who we can get as a'bit of a bargain' then...

Paul Johnson....hardworking....unspectacular....squad player at best - is he our level?

Unless one of the faithful has some luck with the euromillions, it's looking like a season similar to the season that led to Kear's departure.
Kids and Loaned players and a couple of bargain basement players.
A season sure to test the mettle of all of us and with the spectre of relegation hanging in the air.
Another last day escape on the cards ?

No surprise really and can't blame him.

While I can understand Tusons decision (self protection) I can not understand a hard nosed business man allowing it with no gain to our business  

Tusons showing us the respect he's been given from the club.

May not help us in the long run but fair play to him.

As usual,worked out OK for everybody except us.
Wakey fans are used to this but pretty sick of it I guess!

But as has been said before, it's in our own hands, if every gold member from last year renews we will have the same financial clout as this year! Re new those memberships!

Technically incorrect. You will have reduced Sky money to make up. Can be done though - just look at Bulls. They have survived without the full Sky hand out.
