Ironic then that he survived that but will be sacked for something completely different and some may say less serious.

this isn't less serious trust me, he's in big

More serious than the matters for which he is awaiting trial next year?

thats what im on about, no way out of this one for him

Well if its THAT bad I guess we'll all know about it soon enough. No way can stuff like that be kept quiet for long.

It would hardly be a surprise if he was on his way out. Hopefully he will stay though.

Surely he'll last 'til the trial? Seems strange to give him the 5 shirt if plans were afoot to oust prior to that?

Perhaps they used his ink to print it?

But how bluddy stupid of him - and pointless - to potentially end his career like this

Its called greed. And i rated gareth raynor as a very good player and there was no one more delighted than me when he came back and signed for us for a second time. BUT, these are professional players doing a job thousands and thousands of men and kids would love to do. Wearing the shirt that all us fans long to do.

So if this so called professional can not conduct himself in a PROFESSIONAL manner both on and off the pitch then he doesnt deserve a chance to play rugby league, let alone for this club. So if it is the end of gareth raynor and hull fc. Thank you for the memories but it serves you right. As for any other sportsman that doesnt know the correct way to conduct himself. No sympathy from me.

Greed , greed and more greed
if he done it , throw the book at him, if not let him get on with Rugby!! it will be all over the HDM in time

Agree totally that his head isnt in the right place regards to playing. He is still the best winger at our club when focussed imo. (Briscoe is still developing and Calderwood is great but not the class of Raynor)

Shame we wont see him much though imo.

A great player who has had every opportunity within the sport..however imo the racist scum should have been sacked.I could not even cheer him at Wembley...Close the door on your way out Gareth

Agree 100%, no place for him in professional support, fairly disgusted we have stuck by him to be honest, and arrogant, ignorant, violent and racist individual.

Weighing Everything up, I think that its very likely that he will probably never play for us again, because in addition to all the above very valid reasons he is back on the treatment table, and has only made it through 4 or 5 sessions since the end of last season. He is way off fitness and will not be until at least a couple of months into the season! He is a great player and no mistake, although he is always on the edge of controversy, but he's back in court in April and allegidly in big trouble! He's already been in trouble once when the club stood by him and I wonder if they would do it again, should the worst happen in April.

I know he is a big favourite for some but I honestly believe that the best thing that both the club and the player can do is come to an agreement and decide to go their seperate ways!!! If that were to hapen then luckily for us we have at least got a current England International to play on that wing!

Of course as always for the moment at least just my opinion!

You are absolutely right there Wilf <I've decided to not post the rest of my thoughts as I'll probably get a threatening PM like I did last time I commented>

What ever happens to Raynor , I don't think the fans will miss him that much tbh. I like the player but the last couple of seasons ,he's either been injured or completely wasted and starved of any possession.

If the worst does happen and he doesn't play for us and he does get sent down i wonder how long it will be til Hudge and Morgs are tracking him.

The thing is dave , He's 30 odd now and any decent length of sentence will put Briscoe or even one of the other young kids a great chance to cement thier place on the wing. Hudge will be welcome to him.

Get rid, he is a bad apple and did nothing last year. Used to rate him but he gets more headlines off the pitch now.

I agree wth Wilfs line of thought, it makes sense and does not presume he is guilty as some have already done. He is still a valuable member of the FC squad and he can prove deadly, playing behind a good pack and proper half backs could improve his game no end. If he was crap last year at times, then he was not on his own was he. He did however put in some good performances when others where clearly looking at there next pay cheques.


We shall see, just don't write him off quite yet

he's far too good to play for a pub team. besides i wouldn't like to see him end up over there after the service he's given us. i didn't realise he was such a bad ass off the pitch either. i hope he stays..

Finally someone reasonable has something to say.
I'd hate to think of some of the posters being summoned for jury service.
