I stopped thinking about him when waldorf & statler stopped creaming their kecks over him

You hear a lot of stuff, apparently, jehull.

In 2010: "You heard it from me first. Leuluai to Hull next season. Watch this space."
"Ive heard that Paul Cooke is to be offered a pay as you play contract at FC."
"Has anybody heard a rumour that the guy who owns Hull city (Assem Allam) is also interested in putting a bid in for Hull FC"
"You know Rovers are going to win with the whole Mason saga. I believe that Mason will get his passport."
On Gareth Ellis: "More chance of us getting Agar back. No chance of us getting him."

I'm never going to win the lottery!

Mrs B, can you archive this and throw it back in my face please?

Like General Zod. saying a couple of years ago if Rovers could sign any prop in the world he would select Joel Clinton, you mean?

Yes, they have. Though I wouldn't expect anything less from professional players. That doesn't alter the fact that some of them won't be good enough to take us further.



I'd imagine some do and some don't.



Rubbish. Speculation as to who goes and who stays is part and parcel of what takes place on a fans' discussion board. Professional players won't give a shiny what the fans' speculation says - all that matters to them is what the club thinks.



So if we replaced Tony Martin with Jamie Lyon (outlandish example), how do you think that would affect the team's morale?



It is, but you can only get so much out of a player with coaching. Eventually, they will achieve their potential and some still won't be good enough for a tilt at the top spot.



Our youngsters should of course be given time. But how much more time does, say, Mike Burnett need before it becomes blindingly obvious that he's not going to be a top end of SL forward? Should we also give Tony Martin more time? He's done well for us this season, but he's not going to suddenly get a lot better at 34 years of age.

I'm with A unknown superstar on Crookes, dont see anything special in him at all,if anything he seems Championship quality.

mcrae signed plenty of youngsters from other clubs while at Hull. Some came off, plenty disappeared into obscurity

With Pearson confirming that the last board did things on the cheap it makes sense, it's the easiest way to cut corners and possibly maximise the return on your money.

ah the popular voice of sanity arrives back to leg hump again
never said there WAS a signing but believe there will be more to come
no previous username, miloes wide of the mark and if in doubt speak to the mods FFS and get them to check but you carry on leg rubbing mate

if what i've heard is true interesting times ahead for FC, "Moa going home, Manu goin home, O' Meley leaving, Briscoe to the NRL, Martin to retire. Some big big signing to come to replace those leaving" as quoted word for word my info from a 1st team players mother but she wouldnt reveal which big players were coming in to replace those leaving.

why would a players mum know? Seriously, i doubt any players at the club (apart from perhaps Lynch, Seymour) would know who we are signing

Or even who is leaving, in most instances.

I think most players would know who was leaving, as they are a tight bunch. But unless they are good mates with new signings and have been told that way, then i doubt they would know who was coming
