Good luck to him, he's been a cracking player for us and is well up there in the all time club scorers list.

Great memories of his two quick tries in the 2008 semi final and his drop goal to beat Saints in 2010.

Spot on.

Think a few people have either forgotten how good a fit Tickle is or have decided he's poor because he's leaving.

And the penalty from the touchline against Crusaders which made Brian Noble blow a gasket

Good solid player who did his job well for us. One of the best goal kickers we have had. Good luck to him for the future. Like someone said early he's been playing for a long time and maybe injuries are starting to catch with him now. A bit like Horney.

Rubbish. Just because people dont think he should walk back into the side doesnt mean they are bitter.

He is a good player but not a gamebreaker.We have hardly missed him this season, Id rather we continue the development of Pitts and Westerman. Rather see Tickle then Galea though.

There is a difference between a player like Whitehead, who wants out before the end of his contract, to that of any player who is moving on at the end of his contracted time.

Christ, you really are quite backward aren't you.

Are you suggesting that because he didn't accept a contract offer he should have been discarded, even with over 12 months left?

If so, you are not backward, you are just plain stupid.

Perhaps if lynch had not accepted a contract extension last season he should have been sold? Why not go one further and suggest that Rich Swain was never really that committed as he had the audacity to retire.

I understand this and that is why I havent gone off on one demanding he never plays again for us. I do however think it would be more beneficial to the sqaud if we focused on players who are in our future. Id play Tickle if we needed him but not at the expense of Westy or Pitts.

I'd agree about Westerman and Pitts. But I am a firm believer in playing your best players as and when available. It's probable that when tickle is fit, he will be played off the bench. If he comes out, has a blinder and kicks perfectly, it would be difficult to leave him out. With his kicking ability alone he'd be worth a starting spot in games which might be considered to be a close contest.

Hope all goes well for him at Widnes. I do feel we've seen the best in him as injuries starting to creep into his game now.

But only think we will miss for defo is his Goal Kicking.

Good luck Danny at Widnes, as many have said, always 100% each and every shift. The best goal kicker we have had, well behind Raggietash maybe...

Are some of our fans the only ones that want players leaving to be left out????? I don't see Wigan leaving out Mossop or Richards.

[url=http://www.thisishullandeastriding.co.uk/Danny-Tickle-ll-leave-Hull-KR-heavy-heart/story-19259874-detail/story.html#axzz2VnSAwPm9Really HDM, you're that lazy/stupid not to proof read?[/url

what im saying is, it was clearly evident to all at hull fc that he had his heart set on moving back to lancashire... and with that, why didnt we offer him the oppotunity to leave a year early so we could get some transfer funds back from a player who has been handsomely paid for 7 years by our club..?? whats the issue with that
i think you'll find that ANY top football team would place a player on the transfer list if they knew that player had no intention of signing a new deal... simple business..... now whos stupid

my sentiments exactly

That's a hell of a lot different to:

Not fit to wrap chips in. They've now changed the story text but it's still got KR in the page address. Muppets.

So your saying it's Pearson and Gentles fault and they are stupid?

If Tickle helps us get to Wembley by kicking the winning goal and the club make loads of money out of it, will you then be calling the decision stupid?

Maybe we should have sold Briscoe last year, Manu and Moa the year before?

Hull could have sold him, but wanted the best squad possible for this season and that included Tickle, if we had sold him last year they would have been a 10 pages thread on him complaining about it, the club cant win with fans like you.

I'm curious as to what headline the print copy carried.

It just said "Ah, we can't be ars*d anymore"

For what it's worth. Hull did set a price for Widnes to take him however it was £100,000+ so we decided Hainaut it for the sake of just this season.

Hull obviously decided that was his value to you this year (if you like).

Good reading the positive comments on Danny though. Many go the other way when a player leaves

Good luck to Danny, he has served us well, shall miss his goalkicking.

I thought Tickle signed an extra years deal to this year.. Silly me

Two different sports. Completely different scenarios.

And, what Calr Spackler and Dave K said.

My original point still stands.

Football is the only sport where significant transfer fees occur. RL has adopted the system that most sports do for player movement.

You,need to get our of this idea that players are in it for the pride, the shirt and the badge. Very VERY few will be like that unless they are died in the wool locals. It's their job. They will go where they can get the best deal which suits them. In rare situations its not just about money, as in Tickles case.

or players stay put because they get away with behaviour which wouldn't be accepted elsewhere, and FC have had those aplenty, Good luck to Tickle and Briscoe, moving on for what they believe to be better (financially, emotionally or just perceptionally)

we'll miss Tickle more than Briscoe.
