He'll more likely end up at Wakefield or even Featherstone.

Well, irrespective of it the source, it was released by the media.

True, but Abdull (and you’d hope his family), had a clear motivation not to give the story to the Mail in the middle of a post-record mullering poop storm. They could just be really, really, REALLY stupid, of course. It could theoretically have been Lloyd Grossman or Danny Dyer. My wild stab in the dark is that it came from Hull FC, mad conspiracy theorist that I am.

In contrast, I can imagine that very easily. However, I regard the Mail’s coverage of Hull FC as egregiously (and amusingly) obsequious and pliant, these last few years. A view you perhaps don’t share.
ComeOnYouUll wrote:Not that it really matters, I suppose.
Unless you’re Jordan Abdull, no I suppose not.
For the record, I thought Hudgell’s public criticism of Adam Walker was misjudged under the circumstances, and Scott Taylor was within his rights to look for a move away from Rovers, just like any other player.

Not something you could accuse Gareth Westmorland of towards Rovers, of course

Whilst Hadley was at Trinity, he was the saviour, the missing cog, i remember a good lot of you saying when he comes back he will solve part of the back row problem. You really are fickle fans. The same goes for all the injured players, do you really think Sneyd, Kelly, Bowden, Green, Minicello, Kelly are gonna make you great again. below is your squad, not much difference to next season.

Well I know for certain The club (coaching staff) are a tad gutted he wants to leave . The kid certainly has talent . He has become a scapegoat with us fans in the past and it’s not all his fault as others have said , playing behind a beaten pack is not easy as a half back , especially as a young one . He wants to play regular which I can understand , good luck Jordan ,just a shame it hasn’t worked out here

Haven't you got 5th position in the qualifiers to celebrate tonight? If we have 2 Kellys as you indicate,maybe that would help. He was a Man of Steel nominee last year and obviously this:

I have no idea what the HFC coaching staff have done to him!
