Any official announcement?

getting announced tomorrow at same time as the annoucment of him going to kr

The bit I don't get here is, Danny, judging by hair do's etc, is well in touch with his appearance. (Something, I may add, that I am not

)
So why the hell does he want to cavort around a rugby field in yellow and purple.

Hmmm you sure?

Theres one thing i dont quite get here --- the bankruptcy.

If hes bankrupt - thats the legal way of clearing your debts.So why the need for a financial package to rescue him.Surely he has already "rescued" himself by going bankrupt.

With Danny being strong enough to put in good performances on the field despite the off-field pressures he has had to deal with,I can only presume the important people at the club were aware of his difficult circumstances.I was under the impression that the action taken in November is the lowest it can get and then things start to improve.
It does seem a strange way to repay the loyalty of those at the club - in particular J.K. who was seen on television sharing an embrace with Danny post-match on Friday.
I admire the 'edge' that Danny has,that fire in his belly,which some people possess and it makes them tick - excellent when it is controlled,but not so good when it may impact on teammates and impair their confidence.
Having endured major losses myself I realise money isn't everything and I would like Danny to stay at the club.I like watching him.He suits the club and the club suits him.
The timing of this seems particularly strange.
If he hasn't signed anything yet there is still time for Danny to change his mind and pledge his future to WTW.

Once bankrupt and you earn over a certain amount then you have to repay your debts. Obviously Brough will be above the threshold on earnings so this will be a temporary measure. Basically he'll be cutting down his outgoings on a monthly basis instead of paying say £500 a month for example he may get away with paying £100 a month (dont quote me on figures theyre just examples).

If you are declared bankrupt you cease to have debts.

Are you talking about future income payments he will have to make?
Any extra cash he has /new contract -- he will have to inform the reciever and they may well just take that extra from him.

True in part.

But the receiver can also take future monies from you.

in companies may be or everyone would be at it, you still have liabilities

Brough is trouble, always has been always will be, but at Wakey he seemed to be somewhere that could get the best out of him. IMO he'd be stupid to leave, were's he going to fit in at Hudds?

Ballboy?

Correct but the Courts have control over any assets you may have and they can be sold to pay off any creditors. Also there are other implications such as it being very difficult to obtain credit in the future and not being able to stand for Parliament but I guess that will not bother him.

As I understand it, from what I've been told, Nathan Brown is not that stuck on Faiumu neither is he overly impressed with Robinson as a scrum half. He see's Robinson as an interchange hooker with Lunt which would then leave the Giants needing a scrum half.

Brown is particularly impressed by Broughy and has made him his prime target for over a year.

Danny will get more than he's been offered at Trinity and Uncle Ken will sort all of his off field issues out and by that I don't just mean funds. He, or his staff, will act as Danny's appointee in any and all dealings with anyone who has issues with Broughy thereby lifting a huge weight from DBs shoulders.

If Danny has decided to go then I wish him good luck and a great career with Huddersfield even though I'll be bitterly disappointed to see him leave. I think it's a strange decision by Danny as I'm pretty sure that whatever Hudds can offer, in terms of support, I'm sure we could do the same.

He has found a place at Wakefield where he is secure and settled enough to play some of his best football and he risks that by moving to any other club. Nathan Brown strikes me as a coach who requires total control and an almost OCD like need of order. Danny may soon find his volatile nature and maverick personality soon puts him at odds with his head coach.

Whatever happens I still think Broughy is the best English halfback we have and I hope he goes on to represent England.

how dare you

Get used to it lad.

what a horrible thought , MP for west hull Danny Brough



i am with you on the assets thing for the obvious reasons that you dont put all your eggs in one basket then refuse to pay your creditors

its all a real shame, thought he was settled and at ease with Wakey and JK, all 3 go well together, think he will regret leaving eventually

You can't sign Finch. Your quota is full, apparently.

finch is a target for next year IIRC

Anyone got an email from the rfl advertising the salford game,
bet u can't guess who are player on the flyer is

wally lewis

If Brough is on his way to Hudds as one or two on here who have connections with the club have said, then that is good enough for me. On the other hand we had the Hudds fans denying this, who now for some reason now appear to accept this with one small doubt and that is they dont pay fees. Not knowing anything about their club I am prepared to accept that, but one thing puzzles me, if Broughy is going and I am sure he is, and Hudds dont pay fees then are the Wakey board giving you him as a good will gesture even though weeks/months of team prep by Kear has gone down the pan by losing Newton and now GIVING you Brough mid season for free

League Express covers the Cooke and Brough transfers.

Ted Richardson has confirmed that both deals will go ahead this week if they are to Trinity’s benefit. The two deals are not dependant upon each other. Ted wouldn’t reveal the size of the transfer fee Trinity would be seeking from Huddersfield.
