Quote: Standee "So, we sack Tansey and then offer Gleeson a contract, is this not shameful double standards?'"


How many times has Gleeson been in violation of our disciplinary policy ?

A revolution without dancing is a revolution not worth having.....:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_56660.jpg



The way i see it,It's a win-win situation for Hull.

We get a player for a knock-down value of what he would have cost under "normal" circumstances,and have him under a "probation" period til the end of the season...

If he knuckles down,keeps his nose clean and plays well...then great...offer him a new deal at season's end.

if he misbehaves and becomes disruptive,then at season's end..get rid.

I don't see much risk in taking a punt on him...

Quote: Rock God X "But why make (potential) trouble for ourselves? In a squad that's already struggling to achieve what it is capable of, adding a potentially disruptive influence to the mix is a very risky strategy.'"


Not signing an available class player at a knockdown price would be an unbearable risk to take IMO.

I think this is the way we as FC fans have to look at it, especially as we are languishing in an undesirable position in the league at the moment. Had we have been flying high at the top of the league, maybe this decision could seriously have been called into question.

To be honest, we've made an offer, that's all, it culd easily be just the club getting something in the media to detract attention from Agar's double charge and the poor on field performances, we may have made a really derisory offer, who knows.

[b:1g6itio7][color=#000000:1g6itio7]Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.; [/color:1g6itio7][/b:1g6itio7]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_663.jpg



He is a quality centre, no quota issues, available and we do need one. There could well be cap issues, but that can and maybe has already been backloaded to next year anyway.

He has had his problems on and off field, he has excess baggage but a good club support could maybe help. I can not see the present set up at FC helping in any way, if anything they have a worse track record then he has in dealing with players problems. Danny Brough had a few "diffiulties" with most of his clubs and he was under John Kear both here and at Wakey would seem to have settled him down. Some players like have the self destruct switch pushed down and they fade away after clubs give up trying. This would be the last house for Gleason which ever SL club he ends up at, he may know that and could turn out well.

His whole career would point to it heading towards the rocks before he even signs. I hope for his sake it works out well for him and the club, whichever club he chooses.

Quote: kingston droolers "Evidence to prove me wrong?'"

I'm not the one making claims.

That'll be a no then'"

I believe the evidence that we certainly[i have[/i spent to the full cap - two penalties for spending over it. I'll accept the club's frequent statements that we spend at [ior near[/i the cap until someone offers evidence proving them wrong.

You claim we're not spending the cap. Prove it.

I agree, my concern is if we spend that money wisely, which I dont think we have done for many years.

exactly,

I've no doubt we've spent the full cap but as you say we clearly haven't spent wisely.

[quote="Tarquin Fuego":3e09qe5x] I love Jamie and have done since he was 10 years old. [/quote:3e09qe5x] [quote="The Reason":3e09qe5x]Hi Andy The Rugby Football League are in the process of reviewing the video that you are referring to. We do not condone behaviour of this nature and have contacted the player’s employer, Hull F.C., who have confirmed that they are dealing with the incident under their club rules.     Regards,   Matthew[/quote:3e09qe5x]:23521.jpg



What was Gleeson sacked for and have we offered him a contract?

Do the two clubs have different discipline rules, by that I mean would Gleeson have broke ours if he would have committed the same offences at Hull?
