Career-wise, I reckon this guy is a bit of a muppet. Could've been world class, but flushed it down the bog.

But.

As far as this is concerned, I wish him all the best. Excellent charity, difficult challenge. I'll back him all the way. He deserves everyone's support, and lets hope he gets it. I sadly suspect some people will harbour grudges. You can't do that where worthy charities are concerned, and especially when you look at his reasons for doing it. Maybe this is the time for FC as a club to bury the hatchet, and back him, so we can all move on. Over to you, Adam?

Good luck to him.

glad to hear...good cause, hope he gets the credit he deserves.......for once

I hate what he did to our club and will never ever forgive him for that but he's fundraising for a charity very close to my heart.

Very best of luck in completing the challenge.

180 miles in 7 days?! F*ck that!

Good luck Paul. Great effort if you can do it.

This is a brilliant charity and we should all back him. Its nothing to do with what he did as a player, that should be put aside for this. Good luck to him.

Best of luck Paul, fantastic effort for a great cause.

Close charity to my family, Mum is Sister nurse there. Great cause, good luck!

It's nice to see that people can put aside their animosity towards him. I hope he gets massive support for this from both sides of the great divide. It surely is one hell of a challenge.

Good on Cooke for this.

7 marathons in 7 days is nowt, I managed 7 in 1 day once (aren't they called snickers now?)!

Seriously, well done Paul - an amazing challenge, good luck!!!

This highlights to me that no matter what happens at hull fc there are more important things in life. Good luck Paul

Well done paul, maybe at last you are growing up mate!!!
sometimes it takes personal tragedy to refocus your own life and i work with one of his mates and he says he is a completely different kid these days ..... well done Paul hope you earn thousands for a cause close to almost every family

Respect, Cooky.
Great cause.
