Quote: Erik the not red "And why should we believe some dobbin piece of who has been conspicuous by his absence over the last 2 years and has only just popped up now like a turd from a blocked drain?'"


F.C. must be really proud to have such an eloquent individual as a supporter.

Looks like Pearson's clear the decks takes another twist.

He wants to get rid of players but only if someone pays the club a transfer fee, I thought expecting players just to walk away from legally binding contracts was pushing it a bit, expecting another club to pay for the privilege is almost laughable.

Looks like Donny will have a decent side next year.

But Hull and Radford wnat to keep Abdul, we don't actually want rid, so they are demanding a fee, quite right IMO.

Same as can't just release players we don't want, we have to either hope they find a club or pay them off, it's a two way street.

I'm pretty sure that Pearson and Radford will get rid of the players they want too, players like Abdul, Talanoa will find other clubs quite easily, it just might still cost Perason to pay them off a bit to make up the gap in wages.

Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?:



Quote: barham red "https

The article is about Abdull wanting to leave, a player who Hull have invested in for many years.
They've even recently offered him a 2 year contract extension.
Absolutely nothing to do with breaking legally binding contracts.
It's your post that is laughable, I guess you've never heard of transfer fees before.

Being a Dobbin, he probably thinks players are queuing up to jump ship and join them for nowt a la Paul Cooke.

They maybe did want to keep him but according to their statements no longer want to do so if he wants away. A view apparently shared by some supporters. It is natural to reject a player who has rejected their club. According to most posts he had been rubbish anyway this season. Last year posts were thanking us for developing an F.C. player. Tim Sheens did and he showed that even against super league clubs. I wonder why he has not developed further this season. He seems to have gone backwards under the Radford regime

He couldnn't get a game with sneyd, connor and kelly playing then he got injured and missed most of teh season so what do you expect him to do? The club obviously rate him and the supporters' view is irrelevant. Hull wanted him to stay so it's natural they would hold out for a fee for him

I don’t expect him to do anything as I have no interest in where he plays. I was merely commenting on his apparent lack of development since returning to your club. The supporters view may be irrelevant from a contract and playing point of view but is interesting how their view of him has changed over the past 12 months. Still I suppose supporters are a fickle lot as they want half the team sacking.,

He has potential, he has been given an opportunity but he hasn't taken it, it's ok standing out against the likes of Widnes, Halifax and London but harder to do it against the better teams, I can hardly remember him creating an opportunity since he returned from injury.

I still think he could be a good SL player, but he needs to find his bestvppsition and I think a year or two in the championship would do him good.

Shame it hasn't worked out, but I don't think Hull can blamed for him not developing yet

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result:

To be fair he’s come in playing behind a beaten pack he’s not really going to look that good I think he’s a good player does seem a bit high maintenance though

Whilst I agree, you would think it 8 or so games, he would create something even behind a beaten pack, there has been times in games when the pack has been top and he still hasn't created anything except from a bomb, Rovers at home being the perfect example.

I'm sure there is a good SL player in him, but he hasn't shown it consistently yet

Quote: barham red "https

Should have you in charge of Brexit with these super negotiation skills. That idiot Pearson eh, even if he is willing to let him leave for nothing, coming out and saying that is purely idiotic. If there is the slightest chance of getting a fee then surely the right thing to do is try. IMO Abdul will join you for free, but if someone offers even 10k then we are 10k richer.

COACH Radford in Mail saying be thankful we finished 6th
I seem to remember hearing that after the CC loss we would use the spare weekends off to rest ahead of achieving our goal of winning then GF
Now it’s just excuses
First the injuries , then the players and now be thankful we didn’t get relegated.
Also the line about younger players benefitting , well weve been hearing that old chestnut for years
Which 18-20 year olds benefitted from the first debacle under Radford in 2014-15, when we blooded them ? Answers please

Winning = Entertainment = season pass sales

AP will be crazy to stick with Radford if we lose all 11 on the spin - totally mind boggling
