well just under 4 hours till there main man turns up

Oh yeah, 2 is a must, but 3 would make me more comfortable.

What kind of shape would Phelps be in now? No club for 4 months plus.

Looks like Sheldon may get his wish of Sammut at full back.

If I were a player without a club, I would be keeping in the best shape until a club came knocking!

Oh yeh?!

I can't see Sammut or Chase being available now.

Phelps and Moore would be our best options.

Afwiw I think Tansey will stay.

so the team that made FC one of the most stable clubs in world rugby are the issue ???

For Crusaders he might .

I know it's a rumour post .. But why not wait and see the players we bring in ..It might be the club do not want to release names until a deal is done ..We don't want another M Crocker saga ..Don't forget the salary cap ..A lot of people have put out a shopping list that not going to happen ..Only opinion I think it could be just one maybe two signings or we could go with the players we have

Hopefully you are wrong about that. Doesn't exactly set the best example to the upcoming youngsters.

I thinks its clear to see that Agar doesn't rate Moore or Phelps. He could have signed both of them all winter and has choosen not to. Even though we are desperate now, Agar has stated reacently that the club are not after Phelps and that no approach has been made for Moore. Do people really think that Phelps and Moore are good enough??? I have not seen enough of either player to pass a true comment, but believe if they were good enough they would be here before now. Agar has said all along that he will only sign the right players for the club.

All winter to sign them, while having Nicko and Tansey. Now we don't, Adz. Phelps and another for me.

Not just the youngsters, but all the players. Good pro's like Ftz, O'meley, Whiting, Yeaman etc will be peeeed off big time with his behaviour and it will be bad for team moral if he is given ANOTHER chance.

I am genuinely perplexed at why we ard not intersted in Moore - he seems the real deal to me; organiser, creative, long and short kicking game.

I'm not going to judge Agar for not going for him because if he's as good as I perceive him to be other clubs would have moved for him, surely?

But still with a thread bare squad. Phelps and Moore have been rumoured all off season and when Berro left it was clear that we would need at least 2 players to cover his loss as he can play in a number of positions. We have now lost another 2 players, but if Moore and Phelps were not good enough in November, then they are not good enough now. As much as I want us to sign some more players, it has to be the right players. If the right players are not available then what can we do..... It's going to be a long season me thinks!!!

Not seen enough of him to say, but agree if he was as good as people on here make out he would have been snapped up in the off season just like Briggs, Hardaker, Royston were from NL

No I just think we are not going to sign anyone else not now and not before either.

I do not think it was ever the plan and things are already conspiring to screw the job up big time again.

Always nice to have a fall guy around and Tansey is made for it, to follow in the footsteps of Hutch, Thorman and Hall. I would say he will stay for a while longer






A bitter pill to swallow in my winter retreat of Bournemouth, I had to have a couple of extra single malts to recover ..........................

or was that to warm up

Do you own a tin foil hat?

No mention of Phelps from Agar in that article, plus moore is a definate no no..

If Rangi Chase plays for Hull this season, I will pay his wages for the year.

There are no way on earth that you can afford to buy him.

Cause we could, we just won't pay over the odds.

I don't think he will come but Cas fans were saying this about Westerman on here not so long ago.

I don't think we will sign him but we can certainly afford him.

Maybe not a case of them not been good enough, but RA just thought Tansey and Nicko could do just as good a job. Now they're not there for selection, we may see them joining us.

I think we will make signings before the 13th, if not shortly after that.

To be fair I think those of us whose heads aren't in the clouds know this.
