Problem is, like others he will have been signed on a big deal as we had competition when we signed him fron hudds.

Crookes will be much better value for money.

Signed Sharp from London didn't we?
Think your right about Crookes, even if he isn't as good as Will Sharp is now, after pre season he will be

Pearson talks about not settling for mediocrity anymore and yet some think Sharp is worth keeping. This is the sort of signing Pearson is talking about, amongst others.

Sorry didn't word that very well, I might hudds were also trying to sign him.

Indeed , Sharp has improved but to say he's been brilliant is way off.

Same people who thought Webster was our answer to 7.

They probably thought a profit under Rule and Kath was amazing too

Can't fault his effort but he isn't very good

Oh how I miss the days when our resident accountant tried to convince me kaff wasn't bleeding the club dry

If we were replacing him with someone who is clearly a better player, then I would think it was a good deal. I haven't seen a lot of Crookes to know if he is that better player. Hopefully he will be.

Kath's money and input helped save the club from extinction, as you well know.

No one has mentioned the real negative to Sharp. PACE! Lack of it, slow for a top class winger. Apart from that, he's a solid enough winger, good luck to him.

Can't have a team full of super stars. I am indifferent about Sharp staying or going. Vastly improved from last season, but many chose to give him stick after just a couple of games, a little like Calderwood.

Only once seen him in open space (at Wire last year). He has the pace, we just don't have the halves or centres to create space for him. not once have I seen Hull try and utilise his pace with a kick over the top from a scrum (remember Motu Tonys try against Bradford in the play offs?).

Good luck to him where ever he ends up, can't fault the lads effort and irresepective of skill and quality if your given a shirt you can ask no more than putting in 100%, which Sharp has done.

He's been caught plenty of times in situations where a fast winger would have been away. Other than effort, sharp has none of the attributes needed to be a top class winger

I don't recall Webster ever being thought of as anything but a stop gap.
