I was yeah. Lol

I have told you what my position is - the details I have been given are not for me to divulge - I do try and give as much detail as I can, without breaching confidence. I am not someone else - and the details I am told (sometimes things that don't actually end up happening, hence not saying too much) are not 'tittle tattle' from a pub!

Now please cease this personal crusade against me - it is very tiresome!

I believe that any deal may well be a 'mix' of things, but as no deal was finalised - anything could happen (in the next 80 minutes!

)

I do not know much of the details of the deal but its probably about £100K 'in kind' comming our way.
Also for my mate catnap we are not talking about subsidised friendlies in that figure

Cheers for that mate, it's nice to get a simple answer to a simple question on here for once, rare but nice

Kirmond had a meeting with J.K this morning and will sign a loan deal to the end of the season tomorrow morning.presumably part of the Brough deal? welcome danny lad

loan with a view to a permanent move? or just a half season sweetener? cannot see the point if its only for half a season but he is going back to shudds no matter what

loan deal initially, J.K. has told him he,ll get plenty of game time

He'd get game time at Hudds though. Seems a shame if he's not going to stay after the loan spell (which I can't see happening but who knows) but I suppose it gives us stability for the rest of the season with Brough gone and allows us to plan ahead with a little more clarity.

we dont need kirmond to see clarity in who we have planned as a replacement for brough for next season....!

Sorry, lack of clarity on my part

I was thinking more of getting this deal sorted and with Brough gone we can plan without having to worry about him. Finch?

Kirmond was a hell of a player and if he can produce the form for you that he gave to us before his injury you have got a good signing.

Would like to think he can recover from his knee problem and if so would love him back at the Giants.

Planned is one word, signed and coming is another.

There's alot of things that can changed between now and then, there's been plenty of players we've planned to acquire at this stage of season in preparation for the next and there has not been for one reason or another a great conversion rate.

We shouldn't be counting our chickens yet.

Still, more time to negotiate contracts without Brough umming and ahing. If the plan falls through earlier than it would have done if we waited on Brough, we have time to form a contingency plan!

Point is, I think we're better off with this saga dealt with.

Not happy with Kirmond on loan until the end of the season at all. He may be a good player but where's the benefit long term for us. I accept he may be useful this season but he will be back with Huddersfield next season.

He's coming back from a bad injury, Huddersfield are covered in the pack so they send him to us so that we can give him Super League experience and get him ready for a return to Huddersfield all fit and more experienced for next season. Seems we are doing them a favour.

If it was a permanant deal then I would be happy but it looks like we have been "goosed".

I'm sure not many will agree with me but I guess we will have to see what the final "deal" is when its all announced.

might not need to bother, looks like the french are willing to put their money where their mouth is. shudders might have missed the bus.

I can think of at least one person who will agree with you, as that is pretty much the argument they posted on the Giant's board (pre poster cull). And I have to say, it's hard to argue against. A much better temporary fix for them than for us, if this is the case.

Just can't see Danny going to France - but who knows, 2 years tax free, maybe he'd like that?

One can only hope

danny .. go to france please and let's see all the shudds reaction..after all, you are only after the money ! perpignan region is beautiful with far better opportunities for yourself, wife and kid than anything you will get over here!

Reading not a strong point ?

The majority dont want him

Heres hoping he DOES go to France

I'd rather have him from the end of the season so we can get him match fit and all the bad habits like holding down out of his system

is the reason this hasnt yet been completed down to the fact we have another interested party in a certain Mr brough.

apart from the wages we are paying him to not play, we can offer him to the highest bidder.

and before anyone starts i dont mean just cash transfer fee's but the best deal for wtw
