If he doesn't answer in detail, who's going to ring the new directors' hotline?

He might have 30 emails from fans to get through this morning. I'd rather he was actually running the "business" that is Hull FC then answering inane questions from fans. Not that I'm saying this isn't a valid question. Perhaps he thought a simple assurance that we do indeed have a quota space available for next season was response enough? Its not like the original email asked for any clarification on the rules etc.

But he doesnt count on the oz quota was my point. Confusing when they split a quota and have varying amounts of criteria i guess.

As an ex-marketing director i find his approach a little odd sometimes. It was clear that a more thorough reply was needed to avoid setting hares running but he has failed to grasp again the bigger impact of not saying something truthfl to the fans. Maybe he cant but it would be nice if he said that he cant give further details as one of our current players is leaving and doesnt want to announce it yet or something of that accord.

No I didn't ask for an indepth explanation of quota rules etc. and nor would I because, as you say, he has more important things to be doing. However, I did expect a little detail as to who is on/off quota and perhaps a brief indication as to how we may have a quota spot available.

We'll see.....

He replied to me at 9pm last night !!!

It is clear, on many occasions, that he doesn't have the experience for the role he has been given, if you see him at functions it is also clear he can't hold his drink, nor his mouth.

Could Cusack (and other players in the same position), be coming off quota when they become fed-trained? I thought this originally, but then changed my mind after reading posts on here. I can't see any other way that Hull can be under though.

Ive only ever seen him drink orange juice tbf at functions.

I personally wouldn't knock him for his reply. I think that it was very good of him to reply so promptly. Yes, it was lacking a little detail which he could have voluntarily added to his reply but I'm sure that he will do that when he replies to my second E-mail.

I think it says a lot about him to be sat at home, in the office or wherever he was, answering E-mails from fans at 9 o'clock in the evening.

Have you been drinking?

If he said that to a fan it would be completely unprofessional.

Also why hasn't he been truthful? He answered the question but didn't give details (that weren't asked for). I'm not his biggest fan but are people just literally looking for any excuse? Why aren't we just happy that we have a further quota spot available?

If we do have space for him (and I hope we have), I would get him signed up soon. I recon there will be quite a few other clubs in the waiting for him. His price tag will end up being more then we are prepared to pay.

Because people always want to know the how and why. We dont think we have a quota spot left, he does. We want to know how and why he thinks we do. We also have a distrust of the way that our club is ran as per the co*k ups of previous years so are naturally curious here to ensure they club are understanding the quota rules correctly.
