Only thing getting hammered Fri night will be Hull FC

Agreed.


It was Luaki you were paying to sit on a beach for 6 months!

And smash his fists through glass tables

Paul Cooke will be in Wigan ?

Thats a lie

Deal not finalized, but Kear makes it clear discussions are at an advanced stage.

HDM claiming yet another "exclusive"!!

FFS, just ban them Rovers.

No doubt signed after the [ufinal[/u whistle tomorrow

Been offline for a few days and can't be d trawling through the pages.

Are we paying part of his wages or are Wakey picking up the tab.

According to sources,the former.

Doubt very much wakey will pay him 10 grand a month when it's you who wants rid. Reckon you could be paying as much as half

Seeing as he is unlikely to play under Morgan, even if we are paying half it will leave some cash to bring someone in should they become available.

I think I can sum up what has happened, and the feelings in this situation.

Lets face it, no matter what, this whole saga generates massive feelings on both sides of the river and rightly so due to the fact that Hull, as a city, loves and is passionate about rugby. The rivalry of Hull and Rovers has to be one of the most passionate of any sport in the world. Maybe some would see this as an overstatement, but I don't think so.

Cooke was 16, into the Hull team. Progressed and became an idol for many, desipte his off field antics. He completely sh@t on FC and their fans, rightfully to the glee of rovers fans (I would have loved it if the boot on the other foot) and rightfully to the hatred of fc fans. The judus chorus was great. Then you destroyed us on our own pitch. As an FC fan, I despise what this man did to us. I agree with the smug superioirty that this situation gave the rovers fans, and you were right to gloat.

But, he has ended up sha@tting on rovers fans now as well. He comes in as the highly paid SL star. Maybe he kept you up, but did he really? I would rather say Morgan is the difference for you lot. He has cost you a fortune for doing very little (FWIW I get castigated for saying Berro has not been worth the money for us, although I am hoping this is his year and can prove me wrong)

Cooke is the rightful enemy of Fc fans, we paid him. We now have our moment of slight amusement. Lets face it, is has become less important for FC fans now as time has passed, but still worthy of a dig, as I maintain, a relative fortune he has cost you.

So wakey now have the man, who I believe has thrown his career away through a lack of loyalty and morals. I don't think he will be on half the salary he got from you next year.

A whole sorry mess.

But, remember, the passion of the whole thing on both sides is due to the fact that we as fans, are passionate about this game. This incident, let's face it was an unprecedented one, and worthy of the outrage/gloating from both sides.
How I wish sometimes we had only ever what one side in Hull, what fun and fanatacism we would have had.

But maybe not as much fun, eh!

I wonder if that one side would be superior to whichever Hull or Rovers side is on top at any given time? I suspect not, as I think the rivalry spurs both teams on. The only point on which I really disagree with your post is Cooke's contribution to our survival in 2007. I personally believe he was key, if only for the lift his signing gave to the morale of the team.

For Rovers, It has been like a messy but brilliant night out on the lash (appropriately enough), IMO. We'll always laugh about the stories, but in the morning your head hurts, your tongue is stuck to the roof of your mouth and you start to think that you are too old and that it is time for some clean living. You are glad you did it, but that doesn't necessarily mean you want to do it again.

As he disappears over the horizon (the deal will probably fall through and he'll stay now I've made the effort to be poetical), you start to realize the absurdity of the extent to which he dominated the RL scene in KuH for the last few years.
Anyway, I'll buy the book. I know you won't, but I bet you ask about it.

Spot on. Attention, airtime and column inches completely disproportionate to his ability - not even an international for goodness sake. An enigmatic and somehow compelling figure though and the soap opera of the derbies will be poorer without him. I'll be buying the book for sure. Reckon both clubs will get a right pasting. Reckon there are still some chapters to be written before he hangs up his boots as well

as paul is still yr player at the moment or don't hull kr have a dress code for non-playing players
