And the few minutes he has played in recent seasons hes overdue a good run feka too has not been given enough games this season in my opinion, I was dissapointed to lose sam moa too ,mini best buy in recent times
You don't think Ellis has played well for us for 2 years?

Was McDonnell that bad a signing for you, thought he was playing well until his injury. He was claimed as a bad signing because Shaul was seen as the shining light and SM was blocking him. Now Shaul is playing second fiddle to Rankin who the fans seem to want to keep.
How long before lineham with good service from his centre instead of a greedy past his best cart horse with good coaching becomes an international ? Haven't we given the fumbling dustman a long deal too?! And we should use the money to secure a decent hooker Houghton tackles but his passing and creativity is not good enough

You could also ask - "how long till Naughton or Lancaster have a walk in of a try as Lineham pushed in too close to Chris Bridge when we are attacking there line"

Was a good signing and a bit unlucky, I didn't actually agree with his list, for a start it had Ellis on it, that wasn't my point.

Selling any other players as well this season would.
But Adam Pearson stated publically (Sporting headlines HDM on 2/10/2013) that 'There is absoloutley no chance of Tom Lineham or any of our young talent leaving this club. Lineham, Shaul, Crooks, these kids are our future and it doesn't matter what club wants them, there is no chance any will go. It will happen over my dead body. Two out of three gone and Shaul rumoured by some fans to be on his way, I think most will appreciate why AP didn't want to comment on the matter whn asked by the local press.

Exactly. Its so long ago no-one can remember.
There is a world of difference between selling players (Lineham) and players who want to leave at the end of their contract despite the club offering them a new deal e.g. Briscoe, Manu, Paea.
The latter scenario is how many players move clubs.
However as I said in my earlier post I would be worried if we were to sell anyone else this season.
First there was wisdom Then there was knowledge Now there is only information

That was two years ago, are you saying that Tom should stay at Hull for the rest of his life?
Still a bit of naive statement (he has done a few) from AP.
