I don't see why? He's no more or less likely to sign for us than he was a few days ago. It's all speculation anyway. Hull have neither confirmed nor denied that they've offered him a contract.

Hope you are right. It's just that we've been down this path so many times before.

Just saying what I've heard about Radfords thoughts, I'm not saying anything on the matter. He may not fit or he could be a World beater for us, only time will tell. If you want to know why Rovers never played him I suppose you would have to ask Peacock or Hudge at the next forum. I'm not really interested about his former clubs to be honest.

| Might have been mentioned already but Connor says on HullFCLive that his preference is to play in the halves.

I think Rovers took a massive gamble when they saw a reason to get out of Kellys contract without paying compensation when he came back late, Probably was not wanted by Sheens and he wanted the cap space for Prince that gamble back fired big time pinching a few grand cost a million, also for all the good things they said about Campo good guy to have a round and all that he was quickly disposed of, no even reduced contract offered
I hope the Kelly deal comes off I think he will be a different animal at Fc the senior players around him will not tolerate any kind of poor discipline at the club and he will not be the one expected to carry us every week like he was at KR there was a lot put on his shoulders at rovers and I suspect he played injured most of the year like at Wembley

Albert was sold a dead horse prior to signing for kr, he was told of the world class forwards they was to sign, when that never materialised he'd had enough, even kicked off one day & stormed out of training, Radders & Motu have sold him our club with no lies, & we do have the world class forwards for him to work with, 100% guranteed he will not have any off field issues at our club.

Sure is I hope we are going to replace Frank. I think we could be a bit light in the forwards if we have a couple of injuries.
Are you privy to the Michaels situation?. It seems odd that AP said he was going to sign weeks ago.

A lot of assumptions there, what about the other clubs in the NRL he was kicked out of, were they not in the same class as Hull and unable to manage players?I also wonder, if he does sign presumably on a massive paycut how motivated will he really be? I have no doubt he will start like a house on fire (it's what he does) but he has a lot of issues, that I'm sure you know all about? Radders could always fill him in I suppose!

His previous club weren't well run at all, had a big drugs scandal, has Kelly ever played for a team challenging?
Surely if on a lower salary, he will be motivated to earn a better one.
Different situation to Rovers as he won't be our main player and we have cover if it doesn't work out.

| Another difference between us and Rovers, is that is he has a season like he did in 2015, there is a good chance we will win the CC again or the GF.

Difference is he travelled to the other side of the world to play behind the likes of Donaldson, clarkson not exactly world class eh? Radders has the club running right under no false pretences, the paycut is of his own doing, but he has an incentive at our club, why would he need to fill him in? We will just play Connor, CT or fetch Abdul back.

Do you honestly believe that Rovers to save a few quid would jeopardise the future of the club by trying to force Albert out? Moreover why would they do this to one of our most talented players if he was contributing as he should have been?
As for selling him a pup, he was one of the best paid players in SL, I'm sure that cushioned the blow!
(Oh and by the way it was the players who didn't want him in the side due to his behaviour!) He was a disgrace.

| Love the way the Dobbins are demonising Kelly, and yet they've been hero worshipping Cockayne for years.
They are a classless club who are quick to dispense of players and/or badmouth those that gave good service (especially their owner) when they leave.
The fact that players like Watts, Kelly, Micky P and McDonnell chose our club over theirs in recent history speaks volumes.
Hope Kelly plays to his potential at a good club, with a good environment, to sicken the Dobbins off even more.

| Where have I demonised Kelly? His problems are his own doing, he is talented no doubt, dubious attitude absolutely. It is funny though when he was with us he's a liability, now he may be with you he is the new messiah who will lead you to the promised land!
I will finish by saying this, when he first signed for a Rovers, I got chatting to a senior player of yours at a party and he told me exactly what would happen with Albert and he was absolutely bang on!

Challenge Cup winners for the 4th time, won at Wembley, Top 4. Ellis pretty much got this covered.

You have to be realistic, surely? Pub landlord coaching the team and no "humble" superfans on the board. Never win anything.
