Be very surprised (but happy)if we got carney,the phrase 'we are happy with what we've got' suggested to me it's more unlikely than likely...

The Carney issue is obviously sensitive but if the coach and owner want him the players should be professional and accept it. Whatever has gone on it can't be any worse than signing a player who was convicted of assaulting his estranged wife at the same time the club launched a domestic violence awareness campaign.

Radford said Litten will play for the first team in the future. Has anyone seen him play?

Tend to agree.

it would certainly put some bums on seats.
If it happens who will they have to release?

Just admit you were wrong again. It's no big deal, you're wrong a lot

Signing carney would certainly shift a good few passes but didn't sound likely to me.

Tbf the Reardon debacle is hardly a good benchmark. The range of possibility on Carney could run all the way from blagging interest to distract from banking the fee for Westerman but ultimately not reinvesting it, through to him being signed but us now sorting the detail. No idea what's going on.

About fans not renewing potentially causing big financial issues at the club?

Very good player, the fact he'll still be 17 when the season starts speaks volumes. That said, I wouldn't expect to see him too often in 2016, Houghton's injury record is second to none and Washy is his help. He'll play in the 23's and is certainly being fast tracked.

Did you ever tell us what hull fc credit score is

For me and its only what everyone else heard I got the impression that both Radford and the Coach want Carney and probably now more than ever realise that he is a real crowd pleaser by the way the conversation calls etc kept coming back to him. Then they talk about harmony and everything having to be right, his well publish misdemeanours on social media and not wanting to disrupt the balance so one can only think that the players or one or two at least don't want him and it will cause unrest if he comes in. Quite curious really!

Litten is a great payer and well advanced for his age when I have seen him I have been impressed with his rugby brain and the way he is never over awed by older and more experienced opposition. I would say he was still a way off the first team though so its down to Washy.....

No discussions at all on the academy then? How it's going to be run, what the strategy is to maximise both clubs return on investment etc?

When I looked a couple of weeks ago it was 41/100.

Thanks for the info. I get the impression that you watch the U19's a lot. On that basis are there any from that group you think could feature in the 1st team next season?

Also what's happened to HTW? He seems to have gone off the radar.
