22nd july Pearson publicly announced his take over. 1st of Sept is the tapping up deadline, 22nd sept is date Briscoes signing was publicly announced.

as I said, we'll see, Pearson isn't a mug.

Ask Bradford how much of a mug Gary and Paul Caddick are

Wow, stranger things have happened.

Have the RFL said theyre investigating anything?? Errmm, No.

Thank you, Smokey TA. I've long been a fan of your unrivalled stamina in HKA overseas player numbers debates.



So we can expect no reference to the involvement of Gary Hetherington at all in this, I think is what you're saying. Could well be right, I've no idea other than the well-trodden rumours of certain interested parties' visits to Briscoe's house, inappropriately timed texts and phone record evidence. Can't see there's much cash to be made out of all this tbh. Hopefully more about a message that in the future there'll be plenty of scrutiny should approaches be made to our players.

Exactly, Leeds isnt run by a bunch of tin pot fly by nights!

time will tell

are you sure you're and FC Fan Smokey?

That's fine - call Pearson a liar. I wouldn't personally, but it's your choice.

I think the same. I think from what has been inferred, the rumour is Kath maybe passed on some information to Gary that led Gary to make an offer to Luke and Adam wasnt happy about it. Which is fair enough, i can see why he would be ed off about it. I think what will come out is that whilst it probably wont be the Leeds proudest moment, they will have abided by the rules completely and took the 'commercial advantage' that they had. Whilst im not proud of what Leeds did, its a bit naive of Pearson not to think it could happen.

Im pretty sure im a Leeds fan. I like alot of what Hull FC have done over the passed few years, even if they didnt live up to their potential. But im a Leeds fan.

apologies, I can understand your "we did nothing wrong" position now, we shall see what happens, I hope you are gracious in defeat on Friday.

Where's your full stop?

lets just wait until the outcome, then the plastics from LS can either be contrite, or crow, I care not, come on Manly.

Im such a rebel

Everyone at this end knows it was inside information after the c*ck monster sold up to AP.

What rule is broken by a former shareholder giving information to a separate company after they have left?

She most definitely knew about it but did i say it was her?.

Not wanting to side with leeds at all as I dont like them, we signed your star standoff with no comeback so what pearson thinks he can do with the nicking of a 17 year old academy kid is quite frankly laughable.

Get some compensation for developing said player, apparently. Is that funny? Not so much.

Developing a player who is that good he went out of contract? serves hull right and deserve nothing.

You've changed tack here. Your initial point was that Pearson thinking he could get anything from a tribunal was "laughable". In fact, if he is entitled to and gets any compensation under RFL guidelines, it's worthwhile and sensible, wouldn't you agree?

Scraping the barrel, trying to get as much coin together to cover these huge losses.

Funny how the dwindling crowds at the KC havent helped matters. And you call us plastics. Funny.

I really don't understand your venom against our club and supporters.

There's going to be a tribunal regarding Leeds signing of Luke Briscoe. I know you claim Pearson is lying about this, but personally I'm confident that he wouldn't make this up. Assuming this is true, the RFL will adjudicate according to whatever its guidelines are. No need to get all riled up and spiky about it. Let's see whether there's been 100% compliance and appropriate compensation has been transacted.
