Great minds mate

Couldve been advised by both us and leeds not to mention hhis move to the rhinos

Could you imagine the stick some fc fans would have given him whilst still plsying for us knowing who he was going to join

Quality player and quality person from what I've seen. Some of our fans are just s

Not sure he abuse is warranted, you signed the kid from West Yorkshire, he gave you very good service before returning nearer to home do people think he has some affinity to hull for some reason??

You can say that about any player tbh

Except people like Richard Horne, kirk yeaman, Danny houghton, etc

why? Who did they sign for? This is about players leaving a club and returning to play against his old club, i dont get why you mentioned those 3 players

Like Scott Taylor did for you before his rather long convoluted journey home then.

I'll be giving Scott Taylor as much grief as anyone when we play you next season, he is from hull, he knows what it means and he engineered his move to hull albeit in a convoluted 2 year way, in the same way I can't understand the rovers fans who give watts and paea grief, same as briscoe why do people think that they should be loyal to an employer with no emotional ties? When Dobson, murell Shaun briscoe etc returned they all got good receptions, when you consider what briscoe did for your lads surely that's the least he deserved

Agree, remind me of your Cattell B scores again chaps.....(Google it...)

Im embarrassed by some of our so called fans he is a great player who left us to go play for a better teamand club in fact the best in the country. He gave great service to Hull and as supporters we all have some great memories.

People around me last night trying to tell me hes rubbish and that we wouldnt want him in our team, thing is some of them actually believe it!!

Without wishing to go over old ground here, Briscoe moving on highlights a far greater issue for the club.
Why do players feel the need to go elsewhere in order to fulfill their ambitions? Obviously, financial gains are one reason, but in a salary cap sport there are restrictions placed on the monetary incentives that any club can place on the table.

We are clearly viewed as a perpetual mid table side who constantly under-achieve and as such this makes it difficult to hang onto players who have ambition. This is a problem that Adam Pearson needs to address otherwise we will simply be a feeder club for those higher up the ladder, no matter how many promising youngsters we produce.

I really don't understand why a minority of our fans give Briscoe such stick; we had more than our money's worth out of him. Someone on Twitter even called him Judas but you can't compare him to Cooke. Cooke broke his contract; Briscoe left at the end of his.

No doubt next season Lineham will be getting abuse from the moronic element of our supporters.

It's funny how people miss the intimidating atmosphere of the Boulevard yet an opposition player gets a bit of stick and it's apparently not on.

Usually the players getting stick are the ones doing a job against us or are likely to. The also rans rarely get any stick because they were either average when they were with us or aren't effective against us, so there's no point barracking them.
Fans that say Briscoe is rubbish/wouldn't want him in our team are bordering on having the white van coming to their front doors.

not sure anybody has said Briscoe is rubbish?

Exactly, he's a quality player and his contact was up with us and he moved on. Fair enough. But he should still get some stick as every opposition player should.

It's a shame that people are so petty. As far as players are concerned it's a career, there's no place for sentiment or loyalty, in 10 years time his career will be over, he needs to take every opportunity he can get to win things and earn money. If we aren't good enough as a club to give him the opportunities he needs then that's our problem, not his.

Besides, the good times from 2008 to 2013 were pretty few and far between, and when I think of the highlights during that time he was responsible for most of them. I don't see how anyone can boo him.

The poster above (SUZIE) mentioned that some fans around her were saying he was rubbish hence I mentioned it.

Think people slate him because of the lies he (most likely his agent, though he should be honest too) told the club about NRL interest whilst really he was negotiating with Leeds.

Not a Hull FC player, lock it

Not a Hull FC player, give him stick!

i do believe,he said he would`nt play for another super league club if he did`nt get signed up in the nrl.

So when he didn't get a deal in the NRL, and we withdrew our offer. What was he supposed to do, retire? Or offer to play for us for nothing?

Back when we was the best fans in the league, any player would get absolutely crucified for leaving and signing for Leeds. Now we have all the dripping wet apologists wanting to hold his hand, and tuck him into bed at night. I wish you lot had all buggered off to Leeds with him!
