Well said mate…..body shaming someone just shows the limited intelligence of some on here and I’ve had a warning for far less than this…..maybe time for the mods to grow a pair and do something about this.

Toxic? Fook me. A pro sportsman who can't stay in shape should expect some grief. 20 years ago he'd have had oppo fans singing "you fat barsteward" at him every game and rightly so. World's gone to shiit

I'm not body shaming abdul. If he were a bloke on the street I wouldn't give him a 2nd glance but he isn't, he's a well paid professional sportsman who isn't doing what he's paid to do as he eats too much. I'd love it ot not be a topic for discussion and he was in good shape and playing well, but he isn't and we're relying on him doing it for next season which seems unlikely. He's been dropped due to being out of condition . It's unacceptable for a professional sportsman

Yes you are but that’s my opinion…it’s sly digs with you all the time….we all know he struggles with his weight but why don’t we see what happens with a good pre-season with us how do you know it’s unlikely,you don’t….But he is a easy target for you.

What does going on about it really achieve though? For Myler/Cartwright/Grix/Pearson or whoever has decided to sign him either think his weight is not a problem or they believe he’ll be able to do something about it. You’ll maybe be right, but nothing we can do about it, for me we should just get behind him.

FWIW I’m not saying you are wrong, and this is a supporters forum that you’d have to go out your way to look at and if players did look they should be prepared for constructive criticism, a players fitness and condition should be allowed to be discussed.

Social media is another kettle of fish though. With the algorithm’s and such players and their families are going to see these comments even if they don’t go out their way. I agree with Cam Scott, I don’t think Hull are the only club but some of the comments you see on Facebook are disgraceful and just not needed. Sad losers who I can only assume it makes them feel better about their own worthless lives.

He didn't do it for Peters at rovers and hasn't done it for mcnamara so what makes you think he'll do it for us?

I hope I'm wrong but leopards rarely change their spots

I agree, anyone who uses Facebook is a sad loser

The only club he's done it for is London for 1 season. It's a signing that's a gamble at best, high chance of another payoff

But also his last ever chance of a professional career!

Really surprised you didn’t go after Storton.

Opacic is twice the player of Tuminave, he’ll likely end up at Wakey too.

RE Abdul’s fitness, he chose a holiday in South France over buckling down and putting in the hard work for Peters. He’s finished. Such a waste of talent.

Thought Sao had turned a corner, needs paying off.

Maybe our overseas players now expect a payoff? Play badly get sent home early on full pay, easy money

What ever happened to the Satae rumours of a few months ago. Was there ever anything in that, or was all bull?

That's the type of player we could do with to come of the bench when Herman goes for a sit down.

He lost my respect when he gave up when he got his Catalans deal agreed, we need new blood not failures returning.

We went for new blood in Pele, that was a disaster.

Big Chris is a colossus ball carrier in this league. He'd smarten up our bench coming on for Herman.
