dewsbury, batley, Bradford - all quite close too

Great servant for the club , Never a world beater but never could anyone question his commitment to FC or some of the great memories he's given us all to look back on . Best of luck at Leigh Superman !!.

Its the right move for all parties, but still a shame to see him move on. One of our greatest servants of the SL era.

End of an era. Good luck Rich and I hope we see you back at the club in future years

A shame to see Richard leave but this is the correct decision.

He's been a great servant to the club - of the field as well as on it. Certainly one of the most popular players to represent Hull FC and one who always gave 100%.

We've already played those 3 teams away, nearest remaining league game to Hull is Featherstone next weekend. All the rest are in Cumbria/Lancashire, apart from Sheffield. Hopefully for Richard Whiting's sake, you'll recall him for 1 home league game, and he's captain for the day !

Will Rich count on our cap this year as I don't recall him playing a competitive game for us? If not we may not be able to play him if we're that close to the cap limit.

Easy solution, if enough fans request a pre season match against Leigh with whiting playing half match for both teams. Fans get to say goodbye and it would be a good crowd with Rich saying goodbye.

Anyone fancy a trip to caravan park in the mid 8's to see Superman v HKRnill?

Second that! Allthough youre wearing a different jersey now Rich, you"ll always be one of us, a true Old Faithful. Thanks for 10 years of 100% dedication to this club. Our grandkids will hear all about youre exploits. It would be great if we could see you in a Hull shirt just once more, Best wishes to you and your family for the future. Thanks a million.
