Quote: ChrisH "I don't think anyone would disbelieve you (or Shaul for that matter) but the unbelievable part is that the Club would get everything set up with the players , agents and boards and then decide to ask the players. Maybe we just expressed an interest , heard rumblings of discontent and spun the story to get kudos for trying and for taking the players feelings into account? If they really did do all the work and then realize that "Thommo" may not be happy then that makes you worry about AP's judgement - again.'"

Thank you

Maybe there was dialogue of increasing seriousness over a period of time as potential options were explored with Carney and Michaels, in parallel to discussions with our players who as a group weren't keen, and ultimately a bigger offer came in from Koukash.

In what way did the club spin the story though? Can you link to quotes on the clubs website?

No. That's usually the way spin works though isn't it? Indirect stories , leaks , not denying rumors etc. if they've done that , fair play. Make the best out of a situation. I'd much rather it were that than the other option because we need the management to be running the club not the players.

Maybe but we get some cash , Carney is available , will it upset Thommo , ask him , yes , decision to be made , shall we go for it and lose Thommo or keep the status quo. Bid or no bid at that point. How long would that take?

Carney's being courted other clubs. We may have other options. Other senior players may have been asked for input. Painting this is a simple sequence of binary decisions could well be a huge oversimplification.

The poor man's bonaire:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32641.jpg



why are players worried about getting changed in front of carney? Does he have an unusually large willy and make them feel inadequate or something or does shaul look like nathan massey's ex?

HULL FC CHALLENGE CUP WINNERS 2005 GRAND FINALISTS 2006 CHALLENGE CUP FINALISTS 2008 CHALLENGE CUP FINALISTS 2013 CHALLENGE CUP WINNERS 2016 CHALLENGE CUP WINNERS 2017 HKR THE PRIDE OF THE CHAMPIONSHIP:3444.gif



The writing was on the wall with Westerman after his tirade to some fans after the first defeat at Cas .
He also sees himself as a first receiver type of player , as he alluded to in his rant .
A great bit of business by Hull FC . There is no need to panic with the cash generated . Wait for the right player .
Carney would have been a great signing without the allegations.
It was never likely to happen . Unity in a squad is paramount in my opinion. We saw that with the young Lads in the " Super 8's " . Those performances reignited my passion in the Club .
No let's get behind Hull FC and kick on .

“We will not accept a top eight finish as a barometer of supposed success at any point in the future whilst I am the owner of this club. Thats why you got the Bullet Agar...Adam Pearson wants winners...not useless gits like you. "Rugby League is a simple game played by simple people. Rugby Union is a complex game played by wankers." L.Daley 2005:



Quote: Oafy "My posting history on certain subjects where things i was told and if you throw enought sh@t at some point it will stick I guess, on this occasion though this is nothing I've been told looking at the facts pearson only 3 weeks ago said westerman wasn't going to be sold the guy is the king of spin, and as tinkerman has said above how does Michaels feel about all this last season he signed a new deal and now the club might send him out on loan to anyone that will have him just in case they might be able to sign someone else but if not he can stick around?

As for the topic i don't really rate Pryce as a half back (apart from 1 side step he gave campo at Newcastle) he drifts in and out of games far to much i think he will provide cover in the centres, think you need a backup hooker for Houghton and will have 1 of the best squads you have had for years'"


You mean the same Pryce that has won everything in the game as a stand off.......Yeaman is the back up centre

When he had legs why do you think Catalan signed him to play centre?
