Well Mr Gekko can validate my original post - it [iwas[/i looking likely until Mr Tool threw his toys out of the pram.

Saying something "looks likely" and saying they're a "dead cert" aren't quite the same though, are they?

Blimey, this is a new level of obsessed, not only two threads about Hull FC on the front page of the Hull KR forum, but two threads of the same Hull FC player.

It was a dead cert...

... until a childish public school boy took his bat and ball home.

You've got to appreciate, most clubs have people on the board above this level of behaviour so in that context it was unforseen.

I heard Hull KR got a bad reference from the paper shop where he use to do a paper round.

Crocker must have ed up his "bob a job" week something proper then.

Is that the same as most coaches accept defeat with good grace rather than crying about the referee, that level of behaviour you mean?

No

Doesn't make it a dead certainty does it.

(X player what 100% garanteed to sign until......?)

Or coaches who nearly fall to sleep whilst slurping their coffee and not giving a t0ss you mean

Perhaps, but most of you would have him at Hull FC in a heartbeat.
