"In tomorrow's Mail: #HullFC clinch deal with #HullCityCouncil to develop club & community sports facilities on site next to #SiriusAcademy."

Big step forward back training in West Hull!

Money talks, evidently.

picky park?

Remember them days a bottle of water plus bread and jam sandwiches ..jam if it was pay day



ps you knew when you were poor when your pet rabbit became a meal

happened to us that, came home from school west dock ave, for our dinner, and me grandad had made rabbit stew, ohh lovely it was, that was until, we went outside and our rabbit had gone, "wheres me rabbit grandad?" his reply "youv just eat it son!!", never touched rabbit stew again ever!!

our went into a pie ( the hump back ones )

How horrible !!

Traumatised for years we was, but to be fair it was a nice dinner!

Kind of happened to us...Came home from school and my dad said the rabbit died, so I said can we bury it, he placed a shoe box in the ground ( I believed the rabbit was in the box ), we said a pray which I led much to every-ones amusement, I only knew "Dear Lord thankyou for the food we eat",

I was about 5 and it was the one you did at lunch time at school!
Apparently I enjoyed my chicken stew that evening

....They still relay this story to me many years later

Looks as though they will be using the Kingston/pickering/Sirius playing fields then.....allready have a very good sports hall there and plenty of scope to develop this into a very good training facilites and with the £48 million new acedemy just next door ( on the old bootherry school site) this could be very good.Wonder if they will try to develop it for the u-20s to play there as Brantingham park is a great little set up.

If Pearson is true to his word and invests in the squad by buying players, who do you realistically think we could sign? I just cant see an established player from the top teams in super league signing for us.

Gareth Hock!!

best get a bar and clubhouse then

Have Bradford still got money troubles if so why dont we put a bid in for andy lynch he is a quality player and just the type we need.

Good shout. What about Scruton as well?

Would like Burgess, young and tremendous potential.

those days will be gone Hutchie, AP is spending his own money.

I rate him and wish we could have got him last time his contract was renewed. As someone on here pointed out recently when it was suggested though, he'll be 32 before the year's out. That's not really someone we should be looking at paying a transfer fee for, he may not have much more than next season left.

There aren't any top quality established British props I think we could get even with a transfer fee. The best I think we could realistically do is to buy someone with potential. I've mentioned Paul Johnson before, a small fee for him if Wakey were interested wouldn't be a bad idea IMO. Can also play back row, which would suit our needs as well if Lauaki's going.

I wonder which sl club are trying to bring Worrincy back?

Hopefully not us

Beat me to it.

Scruton ,Burgess , whitehead, Johnson, Amor all forwards we could be looking at realistically

I just don't see/get it with Scruton, yes he played well while on loan to us but he's done nothing while at Bradford other than look ordinary. Lynch carries that Bradford pack.

Lynch and Burgess would good for our squad.
