From what Rule says they're not challenging it either

thank fook its over, we all (secretly) knew he probably wouldn't have come, so lets use the money to go get a world class 7, even if it means buying out another contract

Why not? When we signed him he was the best thing since sliced bread. Now all of a sudden he's not worth it anymore.

If Man United had signed Ronaldinho and his visa got refused do you think they'd give up?

The board have your season pass money for this year, it's next years they've got to think about now. Hull FC is a business.

Not Crocker, RULE needs to move on and put this much effort into finding a world class 7!

I wasn't digging at Crocker matey.

Wait for Hame news very soon then!!

What an absolute disgrace.

I can't help but feel that we have been shafted all ends up here with the undue delay and then this outcome.

I also can't beleive that the rule changes to the visa process was intended to keep the likes of Crocker out of the country.

Just typical of our poor luck over the recent past.

I don't think it would be fair to Crocker, the club or the fans to drag it out further. You can't miss what you haven't had.

Right....who's next?

Thank god it's finally over with the inevitable outcome. Hopefully the money will now be spent where we really need it, on a quality scrum half.
