As he's that young, don't the rules state that a fee would have to be paid? (No idea how much).

We have paid a fee according to your chairman, it's in the HDM article.

Hudgell says you did, in hdm, but I doubt it'll have been a big one. Pleased to get anything tbh.

Could go either way with him, though I'd be surprised if he didn't at least start well. Maintaining it has been his issue. I expect Hull have put some safeguards in his contract.

Always better to go earlier and on good terms - he'll always count as club-trained for us, and I'd have no objection to seeing him in Rovers colours again later in his career if he gets back on his early trajectory.

Not the best way to leave in my book;
We got a fee for a knight squad member so thats good, stupid if we didnt get something from it.

But hes already talking on twitter about going out on the town with his cas boys, so his comment about "hard work from now" wasnt really true now was it. Also his comment about "i jumped at FC when they said they were interested" proves his amount of loyalty when KR stood by him so for me, no matter how much ability hes got hes a bad egg and im glad hes gone in a way.

Enjoy your time on the

with Westerman and co. Another player that could have it all and is a waster.

Yeah must big good to have the financial muscle to out do those Super League big boys, Wakefield.

At the moment as I see it fc are paying fees for players maybe even players that arnt going to be worth it, rovers have done it learnt they're lesson let pearson do it and see in a few years when his target of a 15,000 gate to break even isn't achievable sad times ahead duds

I'm sure il get shot down for this

Yeah but are you even bovvered though?

Na not any more

Why will you? FC fans are saying they have the financial clout but IMO they are in exactly the same position as us and many other clubs - aka not breaking even and not even getting close to break even attendances, with (Bradford aside) Salford look in the worst position even with a new stadium. Like you said Hudge has done it now Pearson is - certainly doesnt mean anything.

And my last point is wigan are very close to signing Soward after laughing off paying more then 300k for Chase; i know which player id rather have thats for sure. All clubs do it and it normally doesnt pay off (westerman) so i honestly dont get why people go on about money in RL.

As far as i am aware the only player in our squad that we paid a fee for was Josh Hodgson. £15000 from Hull. Very astute signing.
We have undoubtedly paid some over-inflated wages though.

Totally overpaid I think one of the best signings this season is withers and hodgson is a grt player

Didn't we pay twenty grand for The Drighlington Dynamo?

Always said Watts is rubbish.

Are you saying rugby players go out on the lash???

They've been playing for clubs in the same city, but only now they're playing for the same team they are allowed to see eachother?

You know for a fact that they were the only other team in for him? Your own chairman suggests otherwise.

How many players you paid a fee for? And I don't mean through a tribunal either, like Hodgson.

Shame they can't show the same well wishes they showed for that upstanding figure of society Cockayne, eh?
Maybe it's because Watts doesn't share in many of their small minded fans hatred for FC as the afore mentioned poster boy of East Hull.

Hmmmm check out the small minded fans on your own pages, particularly the "bang" post, so bitter and obsessed.

What? and your lot aren't.

Please show me our 'bang' style thread.

Sebasteeno actually laughing about Rhys's injury


very classy- NOT

I'm sure Wigan and Wire would have loved to enter into a bidding war for such a massive star, but bottled it when faced with the awesome financial clout your lot now wield.

Or could it be that Watts doesn't have the passion for his team that Charlie did, but of course you won't know that..........yet.

Gareth Ellis.

Bully for you old chap, he's gonna love grafting his =#FF0000Edit-AS off only to be marched 30 metres back cos good old Larrakin boy has given another cheap penalty away, enjoy!
