Tickle has done it well in advance of end of season. Not after all clubs have recruited giving us no chance to replace him before 1st game.

Thats different, nobody was bothered about his reasons for going. It was the fact he signed a contract then U turned a day later.

paper talk,he aint going.

If thats the catalyst for his move I would be surprised. If the club was cracking down on this particular behaviour rather than the player wanting to get out, i think we'd of seen or should have seen the likes of king and many others on their way. This proves it is not the club cracking down on this its just the player wanting to get out.

I thought Thackray was his family. He off to Wire too?

I guess it will improve our 'fair play' ratings

already number one

Yes, but we cannot sit on our laurels can we.
We will be a target for next season, so we need to be pro active and plan ahead.

Of all the players we need to get rid of he was towards the end of the list, if Tickle goes and we still have the likes of G.Horne, King etc. at the club next season then I'll be disappointed.

Long to kick next season then?

Well for a start this is only rumour so he may not be going. He is hit and miss for me, has a tendency to miss tackle and give away penalties but then again does have to play a lot of minutes which could be a factor in that.

I am split on how I would feel about him staying or going.

Fitzgibbon will be goalkicker.
Dont reckon the two you mentioned there will be here either.

Paper talk mate

I don't think even the NOTW would print this without it being fairly certain wolfie.

And if it is, where is the statement from FC refuting it?

News of The World is never wrong.

Why do they need to respond to every silly rumour?

you may see it tomorrow

I think a national newspaper making an announcement about a confirmed signing is more then a "silly rumour" Paul.

NOTW has silly rumours in it every week. So on a Sunday Hull should have to rush in and deny the story? Not in my world they don't.

Fair enough, you're entitled to your opinion.

I hear the have a good picture archive built up of RL "people"

Burnetts a better player and Fitzgibbon is a better player and goalkicker.

They haven't really qualified the article to cover themselves with a 'believed to', or 'our sources tell us' It says he has signed for Warrington. I'm sure we'll find out one way or another tomorrow.
