Do I not like that? No.

Cockayne, neither wanted or required.

have to laugh. Good one.

I thought/hoped we had moved on from this. Was glad we made the decision to off load him at the time and don't want him back now.

Well said. How much bad publicity did he bring to Rovers.

I'm sorry but after what he did he should not be playing RL at all let alone coming back to us.

Agreed, add that to his twitter posts promoting the EDL after the Woolwhich incident and you have a PR disaster on your hands

I think certain people on these boards need to get a grip.
There are plenty of RL players the world over with worse pasts than Cockayne. Would anyone turn down Jake Friend coming over? Greg Inglis maybe? No, thought not.
If CS thinks he can do a job and the price is right, there is no reason not to sign him.

My opinions of Cockayne's troubled past are a matter of record on here so I won't revisit them.

I just think our recruitment priorities should be elsewhere, and hopefully so do the club.

I don't mind Charlie returning but do we need another back-line player when priority should be placed on a 7, and at least 2 forwards?

If Rovers do sign him then it will confirm what I have heard, and that is the new investor is funding the deal (transfer and all). I actually thought NH was going to announce it in his chat on HKRTV but he fell short with his reference to having secured funding beyond 2014.

You might want to take that last comment with a pinch of salt, because the same source told me Dale Ferguson was nailed on However he assures me Rovers are in talks with Fakir

Your comment on us having a black player was utterly infantile and ruined any credibility that you may have otherwise held in the debate anyway.

Don't know where we're going with this. Loved Charlie as a player & was gutted to see him go but Hudge made the right decision at the time. Life moves on, he seems happy & settled at Wakey now, would he even want to come back? My guess is that he signed quite a modest deal at Wakey & this is just an agent seeing what his options are.

If you are of the opinion that a player indulges in behaviour or expresses views or opinions that are so much at odds with your own views and opinions (and for me this is the case with Ben and his views on race) then you are entitled to be of the opinion that you would not like that player back at the club you support.
wether other players (who don't play for us) have behaved in a worse way or how good Ben himself may be at rugby is frankly irelevant.
I won't have any say in wether Ben comes back to Rovers or not but I have the right to say that for the reasons stated above I hope it doesn't happen

Hull fans were giving him loads of on twitter after mondays game

If it is true cant really see the point. Club and player have moved on.
