Good luck Tom and thanks for your time at FC. Left us with some great memories although the uncertainty about your future did seem to affect your form this season.

doesnt matter whats gone on or hasnt, only he knows that, hes given us some cracking memories, players come and go its just the fans who stay, good luck tom just not against us,

Good luck to Tom provided some good memories along the way for us fans. At the end of the day you're just a contractor who ended your contract and signed one with another club so there can be no comeback whatsoever.

Hetherington is clearly not to be believed ever again but then we probably didn't believe him before so no change. It's hardly a surprise Tom has gone to Leeds as he went out of his way to speak highly of them when his brother left Hull. Been a good player for us but there'll be another like him along the way no doubt.

how do you know this then?

That would be telling, but I trust my scource 100%.

If its that good, you be be able to tell me what Gentles settlemnt was then

Why would I know that when I haven't talked to my source about it? Even if I knew, I'm sure its something Gentle wouldn't want fans on a public forum to know his financial arrangements? Whats your salary Frep? Did you earn any bonuses this year?

Gentle's payout was enough for them to all go to Paris - not that it is anyone's business!

I have just checked the trophy cabinet and the SL Trophy is there until Saturday night


I am sure Tom will have his hands on it October 2014

I think he likely did fancy the NRL. When that fell through, then the 'Hull offer lapsed' does seem a tad unlikely - similar to 'us' telling ourselves Paea wanted out of his deal with you. [iPossibly[/i an element of truth in those stories, but probably exaggerated so we can console ourselves we've not been gilted in favour of a disliked rival, or that the 'gilter' regrets it and still loves us really.
Briscoe was never likely to be thrilled at his kid brother been at the centre of that furore and never seemed likely to re-sign. Even amongst Hull fans there seemed to be a wide-ish acceptance of that going back a year or more.

Who will replace Tom Briscoe?

This was sorted weeks ago, I heard.

It was not announced for one reason. The rabid fans who have an anti-Leeds fixation would have made his life hell. His form has already dipped and to announce that at the back-end of the season would have been suicide. He'd have been under such pressure.

He played well for a few years, poorly for the last 12 months and has lost money on this move to Leeds.

Move along, nothing more to see.

Bile and rubbish

£600k over 5 years, lost money my

Shows how much you know. No where near 600k. He has lost money, not much, but the Leeds deal didn't match what he was on at Hull.

So leeds get a young english international at a decent price?

GH by plenty!

Yep, desperate times called for desperate measures

Never trust Eric

Firstly, you are taking as true what gets posted on here.

Secondly, if you were to ask any Leeds fan, they would not consider Hull to be a realistic rival. We are not a serious challenge to them. Sad, but true

Whos Eric?

You are making your self look even more foolish

Where is it quoted he is on £120k per year?

Knock a quarter of that off and you will be much closer.

Surprised at the length of the contract why sign for 5 years if you have NRL ambitions? Even though the Cronulla deal fell through I would have thought he would have still been looking to head down under at his peak, maybe in a couple of years (unless he's got an NRL out clause).

Shame he's gone $hit happens, good luck Tom.

So when are we gonna announce Biggs? IF he is coming then that will soften the blow.

it a few times ts morning £600k over 5 years.

You doubt my figures, so what makes you so cock sure of yours?

Funny after reading todays HDM, Says Leeds came in with an offer when the AUS offer came in. So all that time Briscoe an Leeds were denying things it was a load of .....

What does it matter?

As soon as we withdrew our offer he was free to do what he wanted, if he chose to keep it quiet that's his choice, personally where he was going to end up was of no interest to me once he made the choice to leave.

It doesn't matter. I was just stating all that time he was in the Mail saying he doesn't no where he's going yet, Plus GH of leeds stating they wasn't interested. All pack of lies.
