That is ludicrous. They can't have included him for any other reason than publicity, ticket sales must be slow.

Been thinking about this. If we assume that Mason's first contact with Toulon was the week before he was de-registered, Rovers whole argument against him would depend on how informal this meeting was. If it was a friendly visit, a tour round the stadium and a visit to the Naval museum followed by a glass of pastis at one of the bars lining the waterfront then I doubt Rovers have much of a case. It certainly went very quiet after that and looked as if Toulon had moved on.

By the time proper negotiations were entered into and money and signatures were exchanged, Rovers had de-registered him and he was a free agent, able to speak with whom he pleased. So Rovers would have no case against him. Mason, on the other hand, may well have a case against them for breach of contract. De-registration would have severely compromised the terms and conditions offered by Rovers within his contract, not least the fact that he was restricted from playing.

Who is this Mason bloke never heard of him

He'd better hurry up and come back then. Our form has improved since his departure.

Sorry, I meant he may well manifest himself again on your (im)Balance Sheet.

Really? Really?

This how you interpret events?

You have a serious dislike of Hull Kingston Rovers, but come on, I've tried to rescue from you from yourself before, now you're just making yourself look bat sh$t loony toons'.

Rovers won't be taking legal action against Mason, neither will he against Rovers.

It's over, done. End.

You still think that Hull Rugby League Football Club is going to sue over Cooke don't you.

You've got a degree, at some point this country paid for it, any chance we can get a return on that investment?

No need to answer.

Mason is still "pretty dirty" about the situation according to O'Meley's blog on FC's website, but is taking the misleading press coverage "on the chin". Good work there, Ogre.

It's a credible but not the only possible interpretation.



I do dislike Rovers, it's true, and I've often lost the plot when expressing it. But never, NEVER have I seen a goose in shining armour galloping to thrust his silken hanky in my oral orifice approaching over the horizon, so that's a naughty. Naughty.



We'll see. Hmmm?




Blooming [iis[/i a need. I don't have a poncy degree, thank you! And you should see the size of my council tax bill. And they take the students up the road's bin away as often as they do mine! Bally cheeky of you.
