Haha originals are always the best,cheer up mate you seem so narky,lighten up season starts soon !

All the best for the season.

That's not entirely accurate, actually. Plummer was the CEO in charge for the (non)signing of Cooke's contract, but by the time the fiasco kicked in properly and when Cooke moved to Rovers Plummer had already moved into a finance role with Rule becoming CEO.

Plummer was CEO for most of Cooke's tenure, though.

In Summary....

Paul said he was 'very sorry' and that he would like to pay back all his salary he recieved from the club when he wasn't actually on contract.



He went on to say, he wished he'd never left Hull as he could have become enjoyed a successful testimonial and become a Club Legend!



He confirmed that his 2005 Challenge Cup Winning success pales into insignificance compared with the mountain of silverware he won at Rovers.



At the end of the show Paul said Hull can expect his cheque in the post on Monday morning.



Unfortunately I didn't hear the show either, but I'm sure the ungrateful waster would have wanted to say the above

While i am no Paul Cooke fan,You are aware his mother had a battle with cancer during this time which she ultimately lost

I hope Cooke does turn his life around.

At the end of the day, he was a bell to us... But he's realised he was, and now he's trying to put something back in to the game.

Exactly,

Not only is he trying to put something back into the game but he's also trying to raise funds for dove house.

the way he left hull was cr@p but i don't see the point in worrying about the past when we can enjoy the future

The guy is a waste of space, end off.

We ALL make mistakes in life and Paul deserves this chance to put things right. The way the move to the dark side was handled was nothing short of disgraceful but it is a short career and he did what he thought was right at the time. On the face of it he seems to be getting sorted now and I for one wish him all the best in whatever lies ahead.

To be fair to him, Morgan never wanted him, it was Hudge who wanted him in to score one up on us.

Cooke has gone now,although you wouldn`t think it with all the posts we still get on here about him.I will say one thing,he gave me one of my best moments as a supporter when he scored that try at Cardiff,so for that alone I am grateful,and lets face it,have we replaced him with anybody better up to now.?(Hopefully next season.)

Just curious. Did he apologise to Hull fans at all during this interview?

Havn`t heard it t.b.h. ,but I can`t see him doing that,can you?

Sadly no. Be nice though.

He's a complete a-hole. Ask any of his former grilfriends

Barbie?

George Foreman?

gril, not grill

To be honest most peopleseem intent on doom and gloom on here. Cook was a very important player in our success, and ruined his potential to be one of the greats by a stupid mis-guided action. An action orchestrated by Hulls biggest criminal, Hudgell. Whilst he was a mug/idiot/t**t, etc for walking out on FC it doesn't justify people questioning his reasons for not playing last season. The man wanted to be there in the last few months of his mums life, if my mum ever got that ill and circumstance fell so I could take time out I would. Look at some of the garbage knocking around in SL last year, he could of played for a few teams or even someone like Fax, Widnes, Barrow last season.
PS this isn't a trolling.

I have no real interest in Paul Cooke 2012 but in my more reflective moments I prefer to remember the young FC player who made his way from the Boulevard through the Gateshead 'reverse takeover' to become an integral part of our 2005 Challenge Cup and 2006 Grand Final teams and was also outstanding in our victories at Headingley and Knowsley Road.

OMFG !!

Sorry folks but comments like thehullwhitestars are poor very poor and im glad the majority of Fc fans are decent.

If one thing to come from Cooke's career that helps others then I hope it's up and coming amatures and young professional RL players who never make the mistakes Cooke made. Could have been a legend at Hull but threw it all away in the blink of an eye.

What?

Perhaps i am, reasoning with you.

i have always backed cookie because the club never paid him what he was worth cookie and rich horne burst on the scene together yet a couple of years later horne was on 3 times the money cooke earned so when nh offered him 140000 a year do you think he was going to turn it down. The club showed him no loyalty apart from loaning him his court fees, kath and james tried to f**k this club and paul cooke was the start i hope he spills all now and we'll probably find that cookie was treated like , and before anybody says whatever how have we played since he left.
