your the numpty, it's all part of the same league structure, if your team had been good enough they would have been afforded the same opportunities that hull had had by being promoted
is it really that hard to understand

He is part of the problem that is engulfing your clubs finances at the moment, ie. players on too big a wage for too long.
Also throw in his antics whilst at his "childhood heroes". Now to see him offered to anyone that will take him is just icing on the cake.

| Quote: east hull FC fan "At the end of another day, he hasn't been a patch on the player he was at Hull. I personally think you would of survived in 2007 without Paul Cooke.
Hypothetical.
But he played well in the Key games like Salford away.
The big name players you have signed have all been players that have not had their contracts renewed elsewere ie. Briscoe, wheeldon even Newton! Nobody has deliberately let their contracts run out so they could leave for Rovers as you seem to be implying.
You misunderstand my point.
Had other teams offered them terms too they may have gone to the more established sides rather then SL newbies.
Cooke signing was a statement of intent.
Let's not forget also that Cooke is a player that can win you challenge cup finals and be instrumental in getting a team to a GF. He will probably leave at the end of 2010, and then what for him? He goes to a wakey or cas or even Celtic! When he looks back on his career in 10 years time he will realize that the grass isn't greener on the other side. He could of been a legend at Hull but was blinded by your chairmans clear goal of just getting one over on FC.
Why Hull fans persist with this train of thought really bemuses me.
A quality player became available.
Rovers signed him
He just happened to play for Hull FC at the time.
Yes he was a massive loss for us, but it wasn't "instrumental" in us taking as many backward steps as we have, that has been down to poor recruitment and retention by P. Sharpe. We have now adressed this and will get back on the wagon I'm sure, as for Cooke? Well, maybe rovers should see what he gave up in switching teams and show some loyalty towards him.
He was a huge part of it as he was your pivot and as yet he has never been fully replaced.
Until Long produces in a B&W shirt he still hasnt.
There were 'other' factors
But i know where your coming from.

Cooke signing for rovers was for one reason and one reason only, money, it had nothing to do with anything else. He engineered it, because Hull wouldn't pay him a salary increase You make it out as if it was a case of him being made available to speak to clubs after the anti tampering deadline, where all the other clubs knew he was available to sign. That wasn't the case at all, and you know it. He had already been allowed to talk to other clubs by Hull before his contract renewal took place and no one was interested on what he was looking for salary wise.
Regarding Wheeldon, and comparing him with Sam Moa, they play 2 different games. Wheeldon is nothing more than a workhorse where Moa is there for impact.
