What part of 'he wanted more than one year' did you misunderstand?

Why do people always think that we can buy whoever we want as long as we wave a bit of money about? How rich do people think Pearson is FFS?

I hardly find it relevant, he would have sold him for £800k. Don't see what personal fortunes have to do with it.

Would he have sold him for £800k?
Even if the reported figure is true, he must have known that nobody would spring that kind of cash. He was more than likely taking the mickey.
The relevance of the personal fortunes of the two protagonists is that this is what is being used to fund the respective clubs. The richer of the two is not in need of cash and the less rich unable to throw stupid sums around.

The idea that Davy wouldn't sell just because he has more money than Pearson is just daft.

Because he acted the idiot at the time and that he wasnt actually that good when he was with us,he had a good kicking game but very little else,he also had Tony/Briscoe,Horne,Cooke and Swain as his pivots so that helped as well...he has improved but i dont think he is the player some make him out to be.

He's also said several times that Hull booting him out was what made him grow up and stop messing about...had he stayed he would probably have remained a disruptive influence and who knows where his career would have gone after that (people forget that he dropped down to the Championship with Castleford after leaving us)

Good job that wasn't what I said then.
Davy won't sell because he won't get a replacement that's as good and he doesn't need the cash. The point about the relative wealth of the two owners - and hence the financial resources available to the clubs - is that there is no conceivable scenario where just making a big cash offer would swing the deal.

Now if you'd said this at first I could understand, but you didn't.

It means what all the words when read in sequence and in the context of the subject matter mean.

My apologies. I'll attempt not to overestimate the comprehension skills of forum readers next time.
And people call [ime[/i a pedant.

| We didn't release the player that Brough is today. He went through Cas & Wakey before becoming the player he has been over the last few years.

| Decent player but not the scrum half your club desperately needs. Plus would be interesting to see how good he actually is, he is surrounded by truly world class players who are coached and trained to the highest of standards. I have my doubts about him.
