Seems Mr Smailes has no editorial decision to make in being quick in the draw to report a misdeanor by a Castleford player.Hmmm.

Or possibly that Smailes/Hull Daily Mail were actually being professional and not just cheap hacks. They will have needed to verify the info & get approval regarding the Kelly situation with it being something brought up on social media and didnt get the socks out and work themselves into a frenzy like some have on this matter. Where as the Cas player is involved in helping the Police therefore much easier and quicker to verify the information as genuine etc.

Smailes HDM maybe being professional? Even im chuckling at that. Looking at both issues and past stories run it's not consistent journalism which is what Mascord was getting at..

Which past stories are these?

You'll notice its actually the HKR reporter for the HDM that has done the article on this and it was put online after Cas had issued their statement so totally different situtation.

Kelly whilst with us (no police involvement).Cockayne then Cockayne /Watts.
Then the statement it was an editorial decision not to run the Kelly story by Smailes who is avid FC fan.You can't have it both ways or at least I thought not? Running the Cas story smacks of a journalist who has forgotten the meaning of his post. On an aside if you read my earlier comments when this first cropped up I wasn't overly offended by what he did personally but I am very surprised in current climate his sexist rant hadn't attracted more condemnation?

Don't worry Craig, I'm sure your mate The Reason will carry on his crusade to have Albert deported.

He's no mate of mine.I was firmly of the opinion he was the HDM troll Eddy who wasn't adverse to making alias accounts and actually arguing with himself and has form for copy and paste jobs. Seems to have gone into turbo mode now but I have him on ignore so only see quotes. Hopefully the Catalans female fans will take retribution on Steel Panther wannabe Alby and stone him with Chicken nuggets on Saturday

I think local papers are in a difficult position in fairness - they're reliant on the clubs for stories, but in the modern era clubs are much less reliant on the papers for publicity, with their own websites and social media presence. There are a few cases in football of local papers being banned from clubs, where the two have not seen eye-to-eye. Obviously the Yorkshire Post, (national) Daily Mail and Aussie press don't have to worry about Hull FC's attitude to them so much.

Approval might not quite be the right word, but the HDM will be keen to maintain both a good working relationship [iand[/i their independence - which will be a tricky balance. While they've reported Rovers stuff more fully in the past, we don't know the extent to which Rovers 'approved' that approach. There may well be stories about Rovers players that they took the editorial decision not to cover as well - and in the absence of something like a video flying around on social media, we never knew.

The slightly strange thing with this is that everybody who cared knew, so there couldn't be a meaningful cover up, only the appearance of an incompetent attempt at one. Rather than verifying the details, they could have just written a brief story with caveats, and a 'we've approached Hull FC for comment'. While Smailes' RL orientation isn't in any doubt, the simplest explanation is probably that they struggled to get their ducks in a row with the club over a weekend and made a bit of a bum of it as a result.

A moderator breaching the A.U.P . ...

Albert Kelly verbally abuses a young lady , calls her a slut and a whore . Then threatens to “put her on the concrete “.

He then threatens her male friend with violence .

The club make no statement on the matter . No remorse is shown by Kelly or Hull FC .

The Hull FC fans show support for Kelly , more bizarrely the female fans and even a moderator .

That sums up the morals of the 20 year old club and their fickle fans .

Are you the Andy with the speech impediment, Or was that someone else?

Another moderator breaching the A.U.P .

How so?

I have reported you to Admin . I doubt this will change anything on the cabbage patch .

I know I can see the report. I can also delete and clear it.

Anything else Andy?

Therefore you are breaching the A.U.P . Do the moderators have a obligation to address the reports .
And to boot your are a Hull FC fan so that is morally wrong

And your complaint is wrong Andy. And you’re ban on site.

Like my sig?

I’m silly, sorry.

No probs Andy.

I have not posted that , why are you doing this Sheldon ?

Because I don’t like you, I didn’t like you before under all your different usernames.

You are ban site wide Andy (thanks for outing yourself).

You’re a stirrer, an obvious troll and your hatered for another rl side is unhealthy.

Banned for disclosing private messages.

And your a moderator ..
