Surely it's a rumour until confirmed?

Lynch will be gone soon. It's fairly obvious that the personal terms are agreed & we are just dickering over the transfer fee

Since we have confirmed you have made an offer it blatantly isn't a rumour anymore now is it?

Ffs we will dicker about demanding £200k then we will settle for a measly £50k and Ewan Dowes

That would be typical of the Bulls if that happened.

Please, stop it!

The smilies are funny. Did you Google it?

That would be a bad deal as Dowes is OOC!!

I know

Thats why it would be typical of the Bulls

If he wants to leave because he wants to win things then he can't be going to Hull.

Battered (again) by a frankly poor Leeds team. Is that 4 times this season?

You are missing the point.

They have a sugar daddy now.

From next season, he will buy them success.

Don't need a sugar daddy. Hull have enough income coming in via season ticket sales and merchandising without Pearson having to dig too deep.
You on the other hand selling season tickets at 30 bob or what ever they are up s*** creek if you don't reach your pledge target, which looks a long way off at the moment.
Maybe that's the reason he's (maybe) moving on, to help you out financially.

Oh but you do.

Your fans know you do.

Main non-match topics of conversation on your forum revolve around how Pearson and his money is going to transform the club (which it surely will). Being able to appoint an Oz manager AND a director of rugby is one example already. Being able to pay transfer fees is another. Maybe an ability to elasticate the cap a la Wire will be another, who knows?

As I said, from next season he will buy you success, same way the wealthy owners (not the pretend wealthy ones like Hudgell) elsewhere have.

Are you for real?

On what are you basing your assumption that we're up s*** creek if we don't reach the pledge target? All that will mean is that we have less season ticket holders for 2012 than we did for 2011.

And tbh, this whole "Lynch is going because Hull are the better side" argument doesn't really hold that much water now does it?
Yes, you made the play offs this year and we didn't. However, reaching the play offs doesn't really matter if you get tonked and knocked out the competition at the first hurdle now does it?

I think Lynch is probably coming to us because we are a better club.

Based on what? Seriously. On what basis is Hull a better club? Yeah, you're a tenant in a better stadium than the one we've got. But what else can Hull boast? You've won nothing more than we have in the last 5 years so what are you basing it on?

Based on the fact that despite the damage inflicted by Agar's terrible tenure the gates are still in the five figure band, whereas yours have dropped dramatically despite the cheap ticket offer.
It,s ok announcing your crowds at whatever the amount of season tickets you have sold is, but if the said people are not in the ground spending money on food and drink then your loss leader is not really viable.
Also Adey, we were paying transfers before Pearson took over the club so that kind of weewees on your sugar daddy theory. Jealous much?

Why would we be jealous? We still hold a massive record win in SL Playoffs, tell me the score again? Also yeah maybe we havn't been in playoffs for 3 years. And in one of those years you finished below us in 12th. The only thing going for you is a sugar daddy. We have five figure crowds. We average around 12-13K. Those 12-13K always buy things from the ground hence why I go for a burger 20mins before halftime because the queues get big. Oh and we are the only team to play at Grattan Stadium. Tell me if Hull City have a home game on a Sun at 3pm and Hull FC have a home game at 3pm on the same sunday......who gets priority? Now when we start climbing the league we will have done it without the backing of a sugar daddy whereas you will have bought your way up

Hull a better club? Ohhhhh please don't make me laugh! A poor whini's team make a dogs dinner out of you tonight! It was cringe worthy how poor you were. Lynch wants an extra year on top of his final year of contract 2012 which would give him a testimonial. Bulls are not forthcoming. Believe me he wouldn't be leaving bulls to go to smelly cod land because he thinks hull are a better club

Can you all stop with the my club's better than yours rubbish. Lynch is a professional sportsman in that he earns a living through sport. If he moves or stays will be dependant upon who gives him the better deal.

isn't it the arrival of Jeffries passport that is stopping us signing a quota player?

The Bailey who destroyed Hull yesterday & has been excellent for the last half of this season, better than anything Bradford have left ATM? But don't worry he won't be leaving Leeds.

And how did we sign Solomona? Or Kyle Briggs? Oh that's right, we paid a transfer fee for both of them. As for our crowds dropping? The Bradford fans were used to success and the lack of it adversely affected crowds. Where as, Hull have been average for pretty much all of the SL era so no one truly expects them to actually do anything.

Sammut getting fed trained status is more useful to us than Jeffries getting his passport.

Perhaps the Bulls should have sought clarification before signing Sammut?
