The earlier part of it probably does, but there's no way he deserves a testimonial. I fully understand his decision to spend the best part of his career at Bradford, but I don't see why he is entitled to a testimonial for coming back to us when he was effectively finished.

It's not a club testimonial. It's a general RFL one for 300 first grade appearances.

I think a lot of people have missed this and hence some of the comments.

I'm no fan of Radford but I don't begrudge him a testimonial based on his entire career rather than his time at FC.

I don't agree with any player who hasn't been at one club for 10 consecutive seasons getting a testimonial, whether it's a club one or a RFL one.

Loyalty to one club is what it should be about for me also. Horne, King, O'Hara etc.....

It might be a decent game tomorrow which is a shame because I won't be going to it.

favourite radders memory, when he signed for bradford
they had the best years from him and he probably had his there, playing in a good side, winning honours.

been a good pro, deserves this after 10 years in rugby league.

Never stood out as an outstanding player for Hull FC but one things for sure if I had to have a player beside me in the trenches during a war it would be Lee, safe to say you couldn't count 10 players like that to have ever played in the super League.
Always been a solid player for Hull, never took a backward step and always gave 100%....
I'll be there tomorrow, i'll be cheering him on with his testimonial shirt on my back, well done Lee, well deserved

I'm indifferent to him receiving a testimonial. I won't be contributing but understand if others want to.

Best Radders moment..... Being in his dressing room in the moments after he won the prizefighting night. Seeing his lads and wife and the pride on their faces was special.
To all those knocking his testimonial.... Remember this, RL is a fast, brutal career..... if any of you can say that you would've knocked back a much larger payday during this career then i'm guessing you are telling slight porkies ain't ya?
Well done Lee................ and well deserved. i'm sure all the young kids you have coached in the past also share this sentiment!

I did like the story of the way he asked Cooke to leave the east Hull coaching team

Is this the same Ryan Bailey that shivered outa a rematch in the ring..... AND THAT IS A FACT!!!!!

I don't know of a single person who has said that. What people have said is that he (or anyone else) shouldn't be entitled to the best of both worlds. If you chase the money during your career, fine - RL players have a limited shelf life and have to make as much as they can before retiring - but testimonials should be reserved for those who stay loyal to one club.

Did you go to the Lee Crooks game at Boulevard when he pulled on a Hull shirt just one more time?

Oh you you hate testimonials
