#HullDailyMail exclusive today: Chairman Neil Hudgell says Scott Taylor has played last game for #HullKR & will be sold to highest bidder.

Welcome to 45mins ago...

In a bit of a hurry this morning stan.
edited for accuracy!

If McDonnell is on anything like £130K then us getting rid of him was a great bit of business. He had ok moments but far too often he played like an NFL wide reciever trying to save minutes by running out of play and was certainly nothing great, at £75K then we should have looked to keep him.

I agree the Taylor thing should have been kept out of the press, can't blame the lad for having his head turned by the likes of Wigan, rather get some cash for him then him have an unsettled season and go for nothing.

Good old Shannon. Undefeated West Yorkshire Hide And Seek Champion.

As RBA said, it's an easy mistake to make, as Shannon does tend to go missing.

played ok for a couple of games well worthy of the 130k he wanted, or was it just for playing for KR he wanted that much as fc have got him far cheaper than that (allegedly) says a club who is throwing money about just to get the players to play at the kc, no Mcdonnell isn't worth that kind of money at all.

I tend to overestimate NH's Machiavellian-ness, but when something negative happens fan anger aimed elsewhere trumps despondency. I do hope the deal is signed and sealed though.
From Taylor's POV, not wanting negotiate yet is legitimate; he might want to show he is worth even more with improved performances as he's still only 21. But with the ooc open season being brought forward to April (?), that would have required a lot of trust and given that relations with his agent are strained I'm glad we didn't.
Matty Russell looked promising at Hull and I suspect he'd be going to GCT's reserve grade, initially? So we might be a better option. On the other hand he and Sheriff would be filling a very similar niche, assuming we retain LS.

Please do tell me how i've made myself look silly, on the contrary i would say it is you who is the foolish one, i was merely responding to you calling someone a smeghead and then stating Rovers were finished,
With regards to hiding behind sly digs, i've never hidden from anything or had a problem putting my point accross on a face to face basis so with that in mind i will be more than pleased to pm you.

Makes perfect sense for us to go to the press. Let all and sundry know he's available to highest bidder and possibly spark up a bit of additional interest. Of course the likelihood is, everyone in RL will probably know this already, but it does no harm - in terms of trying to get the best possible deal out there for HKR. Same time, it cuts all bridges with Taylor – but reading the Hudgell article suggests that, that ship has sailed in any event.

Apart from Wigan & Hull, is there any other team who may possibly 'make us an offer we can't refuse?'

Signing Taylor (big fee) would represent a perfect opportunity for Adam Pearson to
a) really signal his intent @ Hull
b) boost their 10k season ticket aspirations.

How much cap space have Hull 'rumoured' to have left? Would signing Taylor come over possibly getting Chase?

Do some research into the poster I replied to. Start @ the first page of his/her posting history (rlhererl)
Then I hope you'll realise the sarcastic nature of my post ... if not, so be it.
