Mason is not fit to lace Fitzy boots as anyone in aus

meant to say ask anyone, these stupid laptops

So what was your point about tax going up to 50% from next year? (that happened this year!!)

That's very good news for you.

BTW, not sure why you removed the word proven from my post. It is. Its even in that article. Or do you think $25k fines get handed around for nothing?

Quite. Although he may well eclipse Fitz's representative record the fact that he has such big hands makes him rather inept at boot lacing.

Oh, and I confirmed that with Bruce and Pam, you ask them.

I honestly thought it was april 2011 for some reason, with the players and the squad we already have players aren't going to be signing on more than 150K for the simple reason they'll get buggered on the tax and end up earning less

Lets say Mason is on 180K he'll only clear half of it, He'll earn the same if he was payed £149,999 won't he?

As you Hull fans have told us, we are already paying 150 grand a season to at least 6 players was it so to comply with the salary cap it will be impossible for Mr Mason to earn the extortionate sums you intimate

No. For the 30k between 150 and 180 he'll be taxed 15k where he would be taxed 12k if it were the same value at the lower tax band. Dont let the 50% tax bracket kid you, people will still choose to come for the greater amount. (3k difference per year is nothing on that kind of money)

Balls to that then, he's probably on 500 grand. Hudge you little liar

To be fair mate i work with people on 500k per year. They dont seem that bothered that they only pick 175k of the 350k taxed at 50% rather than rather than 210k. 35k difference for them is insignificant.

This season's about the here and now and knowledgeable fans won't be fooled by promises of big names round the corner. On that very point, interesting that there have only been about 2 posts on the game that Rovers actually played on Saturday. So maybe he was right. Knowledgeable fans won't be fooled/distracted but thick ones will. Bit disrespectful to his own, really.

You mean 1 solitary National Paper and that one being the DAILY STAR

Yes, the national press.

WOW So many reliable sources

I've got a link. Deal with it.

Yeah to the Daily star. A paper that thought the Raoul Moat story was gonna be turned into a video game

Good signing for you. Would have loved him to come to the Giants. If he does it on the pitch , you will be a stronger team next year.

Talk about stating the bleeding obvious.

and yet another thread mrs involved in, do you actually ever go on the hull board? the amount of posts on this one i dont think you'd have time, especially with the 'barista index' you seem to keep!!!!

I like to keep you honest. It's a challenge sometimes as Rovers fans and players opinions change pretty quickly so it's hard to keep up. That Mick Vella's a strange one. After getting beaten by Wigan a week ago he said Rovers will win the Grand Final. Today he says he's not thought about getting to Old Trafford. Krayzee!

Mason will be on about 110k at Rovers, shockingly the equivalent of $180 AUD. FWIW.

Haven't we got £3,000,000,000.000 spare from the salary we were paying Paul Cooke???

Link please.

Huddersfield offered him £160k....do the maths!

His total package will be worth a lot more i'm sure.
