First there was wisdom
Then there was knowledge
Now there is only information:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_17490.jpg |

Loyalty is obviously an alien concept to you, especially where money is involved.
You and Mr Cooke would get along well.

Give it up Paul FFS, you'll enjoy it at York!! Nice to see you've admitted your mistake tho with a name like 'easthullairliebird'
Bless.

As York has more pubs per head than any other place in the UK it seems a fairly sensible move for Cooke to make.

Agree with you on this one. Without him FC wouldn't have won the Challenge Cup and Rovers would not be in Super League, it's that simple. Massively pi$$ed off at the time, but just pity him now for his greed and waste of undoubted talent. A sad case.

That's really thought-provoking actually when you put it like that - he was with both clubs at the start their rise again, don't think his contributions should ever be forgotten, no matter how badly he's gone about things. And, for all the argueing, professional RL in Hull is surely in it's best shape for 25 years, and he's been a big part of the growth of both clubs. |

Cooke's creativity was pivotal to FC's best period in a generation - in 2005 and 2006 he made 53 assists, excluding cup games. Easy to disregard in the turbulent (and in many's opinion unforgivable) way he left the club, but for all his off the pitch issues he was a big game player that delivered consistently at SL level, and his move to Rovers followed by his unceremonious dethronement in favour of Dobson did for him in the end. |

Ultimately the right decision though - no way Cooke would have been in the SL Dream Team two years running IMO. |

Nonsense. Hudgell's signing and Morgan never really wanted him. Used properly should have a been a much better combination that Dobson & I'Anson/Murrell. |
