Eric Cantona Leeds - Man U
Leeds were champions mostly due to his exploits so why sell him to your main rivals???
He could actually play - that would not do with Wilkinson so he had to go - the rumour he was seeing Lesley Ash might have had something to do with it
Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

The rumour about him seeing Steve Hodge was far more entertaining!

Correct, Seers was poor considering his reputation. However Korki got a legendary reputation by being massively average on occasions. TBF on Korki he never arrived with a reputation so in his own way achieved more than we could have expected.
Korki appeared in David Hinchcliffes MP all time Trinity greats, this from a giy old enough to remember the 1960's. This muppet helped run the country and is now a big player in our stadium project

Problem was he thought he was too good to play for the Skolars where his dad was a part of the set-up but in reality he would have been a pretty dangerous player for them!
Think Mal Reilly as coach was one of our worst signings but luckily we had the balls to release him, never watched a more boring brand of RL!!
Current Hull FC team?

Sadly I wasn't around for the 60s, but I could have guessed anyone in a team which, you know, actually won trophies, was probably a better player than one in a team which finished a place away from relegationa few times....
