And why are people bothered that our squad, who aren't good enough to challenge for trophies, is losing players?

No worries from me, I wish Turner well.

Just trust in The 3 wise men.

We will have a better centre pairing next season than we have this season. Of that I have no doubt.

Adam will ensure we replace with better. PG will pick his new signings carefully.
Bomber will be wise counsel.

As others have said, drop him and Manu too.

Exactly I've been saying this for a long time. I'd have no problem with most of the squad leaving, as they just havn't been good enough. With Manu's, Moa's, Turner's, Ogre's, Martin's and McKinnon's wages that should be a decent amount to bring in a centre, a six and a couple of props

This. I'm as pi$$ed off at him as anybody right now, but the team should be picked on form.

well no one told Gentle n co that making Hull FC great again would be easy. lots of work to be done in the tranfer market for 2013, but if Geatle is anywhere near as good at recruiting as he is coaching then we have nothing to worry about, but first things first. there is still lots to play for this season. i wanna take more points off the big teams n let the superleague know that Hull FC are no longer the push overs they have been.

He's seen out his contract,he wants to move closer to home,so i don't see what anyones problem is. We should pick our strongest available team each week and move on. People stating he's only played a few good games should look at our previous coaching team rather than Jordan,it's not as if he hasn't tried. It really does go to show how poor Agar was,Gentle's done more for his game in 4 months than Agar could do in 2 years. Good signing for Saints if his development continues (which is far from guaranteed).

spot on,wants to be nearer home as new regime made him live here,old regime let him travel,we will bring better in i have no doubt of that

can't blame him for wanting to be closer to his family, still sad to see him go but if he's not happy here then fair enough

Although dissapointed we might not ever now get to see Turner become the player he can be, I wish him well.

Crooks is ready made replacement IMO and will demand a much lesser chunk of of the salary cap, and by all accounts Arundel is a done deal too according to many.

Turner to Saints may not be as bigger loss as it first seems.

I would now make Crooks first choice for the rest of the season and let him get experience and bed in, I don't think he would let us down at all.

Dont agree Sheldon,

Once Horne is fit, Russell will have limited game time.

Gentle obviously feels, that we dont have a young fullback in our youth setup,to be a backup
to Horne.

My preference for the centre berths would be:

Yeaman
Crooks
Martin
Turner.

Why dont you try and give him a chance.

So last weeks "i wont be rushed into anything" is all bolloxs then.Not going to be as big a loss as some people are making out to be.Would sooner have a centre pairing of Arundel/Yeaman than Turner/Shenton and we have young Crooks who will be a better player than Turner.

Whilst Turner has come on well this year, and it is disappointing to see him leave, I understand his decision. I personally don't think him living in Lancashire and travelling down to Hull every day for matches/training was ideal at all, and if he doesn't want to live in Hull, then let him go.

As said, Gentle is proving to be a fantastic coach and whoever he brings in will do the business, I'm sure of that.
