i like the fact we have players coming through our academy and i want the best of them to stay at the club, leeds never let anyone go who had halls ability at this stage.

fwiw i'd expect hall to sign a 3 year deal with hull.
i also think this come be good for hkr with whelam getting more chances to impress and develop.

Its the same thing entirely. We choose not to offer what he wants therefore we dont want to re-sign him as its not the right deal for Hull. (if any of this happens anyway)

A Power Ranger doll?

We have total control. If we match his self-valuation he stays, if we choose not to he goes. Its our choice and thats what i was saying originally.

Assuming he wants to stay of course

If we match his valuation of himself he wants to stay.

Yes that may well be the case but not always

Told you that has he?

Hull have all the control right now, he has said he wants to stay providing Hull meet his requirements. So if they agree he stays.

Its that simple.

He wants to stay as has been said, he likes it at Hull playing with hisfriends Houghton, Steen and Burnett.

It all depends on if Hull will pay him the money that he wants (or that other clubs are offering) the same applys for Wheeldon.

Due to the salary cap Hull are becoming victims of the sucess of their academy players they have produced

Its never that simple Paul.
But for what its worth i doubt Rovers are interested in Hall at this present time anyhow.

Has this thread actually raised anything new?

Hall out of contract end of season, has his own estimates of his worth and may look elsewhere if this isn't met.
