Galea won't sign for Hull. It seams to be the norm now that every good rovers player available will come to Hull because they know Gentle. The Daily Mail like to create a story so if it ever come off they can say they told u first. Remember Yeaman to Rovers and Horne to Rovers. Even as Hull fan we seem to be linked with everyone and with Pearson and McRae stating the signings are English Knights or potential Knights this move seems unlikely. Plus is Ben Galea a quota player
I think Rovers are doing the right thing. He doesn't play as many games as he used to, and has a good game about every 1 in 4. If he signs for FC, then more power to him, but I for one wont be quaking in my boots at the thought of facing him next season.
This is a really painful little period in the life of a Rovers fan. Shocking run of results, play offs a distant memory and the shrinking playing budget becoming a reality.
Benny G has been just about my favourite player since we got promoted, not just for his on field contribution, but also for his off field professionalism and for being a really nice guy. I'm really saddened that he's going, but it's probably the right decision given his 4 months out injured this season. I reckon the 2nd injury at Saints, leading to a month out probably did for his contract hopes, along with our season.
If he ends up at Hull, I won't blame him, he doesn't want to leave the area, and he's got a living to earn. It will just take a small bit of gloss off the memories he leaves me with though. That's not for him to worry about, I'll deal with it.
My guess is that it's yet another HDM headline taken from this very website. The gutter press are light years ahead of the local comic. I hope I'm right, 1st time for everything I suppose.
