"@HumbersideSport: #HullFC owner Adam Pearson says they're prepared to listen to offers for Daniel Holdsworth after telling us Jacob Miller will stay at the KC"

Thoughts

I rate Holdsworth but would letting him go be a bad thing?

Depends on who we get in replacement I suppose.

Can't see a massive queue forming

leon pryce being mentoned

Not sure doing this in the public domain (again) is the best idea TBH.

When did he say that?

You lot go through halfbacks like we go through props... and, more recently, halfbacks actually.

Only signed a 2 year deal, iirc? Shouldn't cost too much to move him on.

Risky business if you ask me. Unless of course we have someone waiting in the wings. Not sure Pryce (if rumours are to be believed and why would we believe them) is the answer as he would be another stop gap to a big problem that we and only we seem to have.

Also if we are looking at letting him go, I hope we have a replacement lined up.

Having Horne and Miller as our only halfbacks would be a massive risk.

If true, why does Pearson think its good for club and player announcing this fact! After what happened with Seymour. It was the club who allowed dj an extended break last pre season h when should have ben forming an effective partnership with Seymour and been heavily involved in the formation of some attacking plays, the club then changed the 7 to a rookie 7 from another league so again a transitional period is extended in key positions. What happens if there's no 6s available and do we ditch a good field position kicker (which we haven't had in years ) to a line runner which we already have in Horne. Unless its a current world class 6 its a wastie imho. How does going public with this statement effect holdsworth knowing he is surplus if he actually then stays at club.

I'll ask again, when did he say this?

Didn't say it exactly but mentioned Holdsworth quite abit on talk sport yesterday. Also stated Miller would be going nowhere and will be back on Nov 1st.

Mentioned were after a new half and would either trade/sell to get one.

He didn't explicitly say it but the fact that we are looking at overseas halves again and that AP said we are still lacking a general tells me he doesn't think too highly of DJ.

Maybe we are pinning our hopes on HTW and would be happy to bring in someone like Pryce as a stop gap until he is ready.

I doubt he did say this , must have learned seymourgate

I'm all for a bit of honesty but there's somethings which achieve nothing going so public about. He only had to quash the miller following gentle rumour. Would Pryce solve anything for this team short term, better off investing in a rated attacking coach

Seems to be a of a conclusion jumped to here. Don't think it's been confirmed anywhere, just possibly inferred last night. And whilst Pearson did explicitly say that Miller would be back for training Nov 1st, he also followed it up by saying that the full squad will be, which still includes Holdsworth.

I suspect that the situation is as described, but has not been publicly confirmed as Humberside have said.
