Nosy Parker is no more reliable than most "I Heard" merchants. He may have got the Green story correct but if you throw as many thoughts in the air as he does, the odd one is bound to come up trumps. He did in fact say Dobbo was signing for Wigan this year. I suppose he was only a year out.

He trawls the forums for a lot of his info. Most of the stories he prints on both the Hull clubs come from a Hull FC supporter whose information is not very reliable.

To be quite honest. I did not hear the interview and I hope he sticks by what he says and puts me right I do not mind being wrong if that is what I am my original post was a question on what I had been told. Let us hope it is right and he stays with Rovers until he retires takes over as coach and ends up as president getting the south stand named after him

Happy days.

Christ will it take that long to get a south stand, to end up has president he will have to be at least 70 I will be dead by then

I find des quite entertaining
Anyhow , Whiting ?
No thanks , the kind of signing that puts people off renewing their season passes.
A washed up never has been looking for a final pay day.

That's one of the most disrespectful posts I've ever read,Chester wednesday

True though

Very true! One of the most overrated players in the last few seasons.

Injury prone. No pace. No thanks.

That's why the Hull fans who see him much more than us have a whiting superman T shirt,the lads just had a testimonial and through his ten years at Hull has played in all but 1 position I believe and hardly ever let them down, I'm red n white and also a bit blinkered but I know when to have a bit of respect for an out and out pro

id take Whiting thanks. versatility at its best. maybe not the quickest but certainly one of the smartest. doubt he'd come to us though after so long over there.

We've already got a Richard whiting in Graeme Horne

No thanks to whiting. Good pro for FC but not who we should be looking for.

Whitings twice the player G. Horne is IMO

Never seen what all the fuss is about with whiting just an average player imo

Another I have just been told Wigan agreed to pay £180,000. for Travis Burns done deal

Whiting is a good footballer and was on Justin's wish list.

There isn't a half back in Britain worth that much.

There is if someone is willing to pay that much.

Wigan won't thats for sure. We paid 100k for Blake Green why would we pay 180k for Burns? we only got 250k for Joel Tomkins when he went to union.

Most rovers fans have the propensity for exaggeration. Hull FC salary cap is at least £4m when you add all our players salaries up

I think you will find 4 million is just Ellis wage

I'd rather keep him than have the 180k, but RL is a strange world and if someone is willing to pay it I am sure Rovers will take it.

i would of rather kept Tomkins than have the money but if a player wants to leave and has a year left on his contract your not going to hold out and let them leave for free.

No way will IL spend 180k to bring in burns he would wait or just pay off the final year of his contract.

And well worth it, wish we'd paid him loads to challenge for 11th
