Quote: TrevLovesJanice "He was subjected to approaches by Leeds whilst on the GB tour down under in 1987 (despite being under contract to us). Surprise surprise when he came back he said he didn't want to play for Hull anymore because he preferred to play for Leeds.
After being "on strike" for a while we reluctantly sold him to Leeds.

This was worse than what Cooke did, and no surprise it has never been forgotten.'"


I can't blame him for wanting to play for his home town club. Would we be critical if a Hull lad wanted to come back to play for us.

And whats the difference between Leeds poaching Schofield and us stealing Obst from underneath Wakefields noses?

He had an amazing record at Hull and thats what i'l remember him by

Quote: Standee "Paying Wakefield a fee when they where in financial difficulties is not the same as unsettling a player whilst he is away on international duty, unsettling a player to the extent that he comes back and goes on strike, that's enough reason to dislike the guy, then we look at his actions as a L**ds player, both as a player and in his private life and the reasons continue to stack up.'"

Was it not the admistrator ???

The administrator was managing Wakefield and trying to make sure none of their other creditors pettitioned for bankruptcy, us paying a fee will have gone some way to enabling them to continue trading until the sale was finalised.

Quote: WestYorksFC "And how much of that fee do you think Wakefield actually got. We never helped Wakefield out at all as they were already close to a takeover. We were acting in our own selfish best interest by ripping their main play maker from the team when an opportunity rose. Same as Leeds with Schofield. It's so long ago I can't believe people still hold such a grudge against this guy.'"

I like you West YorksFC you seem very forgiving but Schofield no. He was and never will be forgiven as far as I am concerned - I remember a Castleford supporter having a go a few years ago saying we were the worst supporters in the world because of our treatment of him - I told him a few home truths.
I well remember he was so petulant that he returned his Club owned car filled with water and just dumped it down Carrington Street. Ruined. The Hull Club at the time had done nothing to deserve what he did. I was not a lover of the Chairman at the time but he did not deserve the disrespect from Schofield and Leeds.

Anyone who still has a problem with Schofield after nearly a quarter of a century seriously needs to get a life.
