But it does beg the question why he'd suddenly be able to "focus" more effectively on being an FC player when based in Wigan, than a Wigan player based in Wigan.

Don't ask tricky questions it will only cloud the issue

If it really was a 'minor disciplinary issue' then it's not such a problem from the hypocrisy angle. But if he is so 'distracted' that he had to be released by his hometown club, then how can we reason that he's going to give anywhere near 100% to a club a hundred miles away?

The answer is, of course, that standards at Hull FC are nowhere near as high as they are at Wigan.

Hope we do sign him would improve us a lot down the right.

All of two days, then.

Victim, eh? Hmm

So he was the victim of something that has made him have his mind off the job. How will that change here?

I suppose he would travel to and from training with Longy and Turner.

what about danny tickle as well

He was living with his GF in hull wasn't he? Not sure though.

We don't know the issues but plenty of players have had issues at clubs and then gone elsewhere and flourished, who is to say Gleeson can't do the same no matter where he goes.

He is a quality centre but the question is does he still want to play and commit himself, if the answer is yes then he would be a good signing.

As you rightly point out Paul , we don't know the issues involved and maybe a change of club is the best for him , but there must be question marks about a player who can't fit in with a regime that has propelled Wigan to being SL Champions.

hope tickles wife don't read this board then
