I'm more bothered about the season starting now as are most fans, Like Clinton, when he gets here he gets here. Seems to be you guys more bothered about where he is? I'm pretty happy with our squad, rose tinted glasses or not I think you guys must have a few doubts about this season especially with this news.

Nothing to do with us, hadn't trained with Hull since the end of January so was never going to play at MM.
I actually think it's pretty poor taking the p1ss out of a talented young man who has obviously got problems and just lost his job.
There's no winners here, Tansey has possibly just ruined his career, (and let me state, I sincerely hope he gets his life and job back on track) Hull and TGG has just lost an exciting player who if he'd managed to behave as a professional sports person may have gone onto rep honours, and the fans who pay there money are left watching a weaker team. Many of those fans will have bought their season passes before both Berrigan and Tansey left/were shown the door. I know how I'd feel if Dobson and Galea, for example left in the run up to the seasons start.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Exactly. But with all that said Tansey must be a raving nutter if he still doesn't learn his lesson over this, But FC had little choice or they would have left themselves over a barrel with regard to player attitudes in the future.

Oh I agree, the board and Agar would have been left with no room to manoeuvre if he'd been let off again as well as the message it would have given to the rest of the squad.
I just hope that this is the massive kick up the back side that Tansey needs to come back a stronger person and realise that perhaps his "friends" aren't really friends at all. Maybe, with hindsight, he'd have been better off staying in Australia for a little longer.

You binned off Cooke after 3 appearances last season and didn't replace him. Who's to say that neither Berrigan nor Tansey will be replaced? You can't legislate for every eventuality and to imply FC's board have misled its 9000 season passholders is a bit shabby IMO.

Give over you massive spanner.
If that's tongue in cheek and you're trying to make me look a bit of a pillock then fair play.
However, if you're serious then then your post says more about you than me. I'm clearly in support of the board of the Hull club sacking Tansey, if I implied that they have mislead the fans then may I take this opportunity to out line that that was in no way what I meant. I'm prepared to admit that perhaps I worded my post poorly, although I think that the much more likely scenario being played out here is that you have deliberately misinterpreted it for no other reason than devilment.
