Call me thick (you probably already do) but I can't see the bit about Wakefield - I don't twitter so I don't really get it

This all sounds a bit odd to me - if Andrew Glover has offered a price for the club and it's assets and the offer has been accepted in principal (subject to due diligence by the RFL), then the Adminstrator shouldn't be disposing of the club's assets piecemeal (as they have already been sold subject to contract).

The bit about, Sweet, FCUK the boys?

You would imagine that the administrators hadrat told any potential buyers that assets may need to be sold to keep the club running while the takeover is completed.

You could also argue that the main asset the company has is the name and history attatched to it…especially when the ground is no longer ours! Now, if only other clubs want to buy a Managing Director…

That looks to me that it's aimed at Obst as a joke. Follw the link through and look at Sam's rsponse

Nothing overtly about Wakefield, but if you have a quick scan of Kirmond and Obsts Twitter streams (I didn't look at any others) there are some comments on there that you probably wouldn't want your employees making or being associated with on a public forum.

Maybe I'm old fashioned, I just don't think it reflects well on the organisation or the individual.

Some of the things may be slightly out of order but it is just banter between mates and there is nothing on there that you wouldn't joke with your mates about.

Absolutely gutted at the news. Thanks for the effort and the memories Sam. I will never forget you in JD's pantomime! Always gave 110%.

Is it not the case that when the club went into administration the contracts become null and void ?
Therefore Sam was out of contract when he joined Hull.
I wish him every success.

If that was true then we wouldn't have got any money for him, so surely it can't be?

(When I say "we" I obviously mean the administrators)

heard sam got a great deal at hull, glad to see everyone is working to the salary cap.

No it's not.

They have just sacked Tansey so i imagine sam will be on the same sort of money that Tansey was on.

Thanks for everything Sam. You have given everything for this club, and that commitment will not be forgotten.

We really do need to sign up some new players now.

Heard a whisper Paul Cooke is on his way back to you lot, surely not?

He better not be, i would rather we gave Wildie a go.

I've heard he's letting the Dragons know tonight.

I can't see him saying No - any of our players offered more than a one year deal with a SL club are more or less bound to take it as it gives them much greater security.

Yep, you could hardly blame him.

It may be different with Millard though because he may want to go back to Aus at the end of the season and may not want another long deal with a SL club.

You could be right mate. TBH more worried about some of the others going like Morrison, Murphy and Johnson

It'll be a poundshop deal by the time it's completed.

Correct me if i'm wrong but, haven't Hull Fc already got 5 quota players?
Phelps, O'Meley, Fitzgibbon, Lauaki & Moa

Now they sign Obst ??

Lauaki and Moa don't count as per the Willie Mason rule. Like Willie Isa doesn't count for us and I suspect Daryl Millard (Fiji?) doesn't count for you.
