By the sound of it we are losing money so I wouldn't expect marquee player's at all. Has beings yes as always. Maybe he thinks the teams good enough without them

Well, Rankin's not been announced as leaving. Taylor, of course, has. Ellis replaced Manu. But apart from that, spot on.

Do you believe the club will not recruit any quality? I think we will have some good players coming in. Announcing signings early is, of course, selling the fans short.

There's still 4 months of this season yet to play, why would the club announce all their signings now?

This deal was done months ago and I did bring it up and was shouted down..........

Do not start blaming those who do no longer come to FC, those who are in charge are still to blame for what has gone before and what is to come. He was SOLD to Wire and he may have company in the taxi over to Cheshire, the club can put on what ever spin it likes.

So now our wing options are Talanoa, Lancaster and Naughton.

Hearing rumours we want Justin Carney in to replace Lineham/Michaels - and then another star centre from NRL. So not the end of the world

good luck to the lad.
he has been great for us. injuries aside. gave us some top memories.
all the best apart from against us obv

Lineham didn't want to leave as has been intimated in the HDM, he has been sold to raise money.
Tom did an interview last month with Sky which was on sky rugby internet page.He was asked about the transfer rumours and said he was very happy at the club but if the club wanted to sell him he had little option.

If you are suggesting he is being sold against his wishes that's just not true.

I haven't seen the Sky interview but its different to what he has been telling people privately.

But he didn't want out he was happy at the club.The club needs money.
bad time to announce this when a bit of feel good factor back in the club.

Was he, how do you know, I don't reckon anyone other than the club or Tom will know what went on?

Thew club hasn't announced anything. The HDM ran the story.

Did I miss the announcement about Rankin?

He has clearly been offered a decent salary to tempt him to agree though. If Wire came knocking offering the club silly money and offering similar to Tom, it's pretty obvious what is going to happen.

15K extra also



140K is a lot of money for him IMO.

Seems a decent deal to be fair.

If this deal was done a while ago and he has the same commitment as he did at Widnes last Thursday night then it would appear that all is good between player and the club.

I would assume he is being offered a significant increase to his current salary.

I hope our fans don't start getting on his back for the rest of the season.

Finally, goes to show what those who claim to be in the know, actually know

Hull FC have already moved to secure a replacement for Lineham for 2016 and are in advanced talks with a number of high profile players, including an international outside back.

Interesting final point on the Hull website.

Would this mean we would have Talanoa / Lancaster / Naughton plus ANOther?

Tuivasa-Sheck, I'm hearing...

I'd have Talanoa at , his best position IMO.

I'd use some of the money we have just got from Lineham to make a move for Tom Johnstone from wakey, but it looks like we already have a winger signed, wonder who it is?

Lineham wanted to leave, but the decision to accept an offer from Wire is made that much easier thanks to those fans who've turned their back on the club they 'support'.

Out of interest, why bother coming on here anymore Ian? Is it just to have the occasional mad rant at the club, release some steam?

yes they have

He wanted out. We wanted money. It's as simple as that.

His defence is very shaky, he has very poor positioning and had 2 bad injuries in 3 years.

No brainer for me when we have adequate cover and wingers are everywhere. I like Lineham but don't try and spin it and say it's the club's fault.

With that type of money we had to sell. SKD should be announced soon.
