Sounds to me like the club rejected the approach and not Rowley as it’s quite blunt and defensive.



Wonder if it’s same as Dupree and they quickly change their tune

Well that's a shame. Who now?

Not been able to persuade the coach of Salford to join us is telling of how far we have dropped, frightening really.

If it is Rowley who has rejected then he clearly lacks ambition & isn’t the right man for the job.

We're proper up creek now. Who's gonna want to come knowing they're second choice

"grixy" it is then

Just seen Lee Briers at the MKM

Aaron Bower saying Rowley has rejected Hulls offer , Shame , I think he'd have cracked it Here .

Disappointing but not surprising.

He was obviously our number 1 target but it was said there was a shortlist of 3 preferred targets so let's see who comes up next.



Rovers fans mote excited about this than Salford fans. They're a weird bunch.

Initial thoughts were that he would reject the job.



As is always the stumbling block its difficult to land top targets here.

Id be surprised if hes the only person we have talked to.

Extra 150k for player signings then

Go all out for Mcnamara

When you read what Salford fans arr saying about him on Twitter it's no suprise he wouldn't come. By all accounts a man not motivated by money, has a great and happy personal life where he lives in a really nice area and his children are at a very prestigious school. He'd either have to deal with 5 hours of commuting each day or move his whole family over to Hull, and he's chose what's best for his family, I respect that.

Disappointed but life goes on

Another interesting week to come .

Hope we've got a few irons in the fire still.



We've chased hard and tried to act quickly to get Rowley. Just hope he we were negotiating with other coaches at the same time

Well my last post aged well! So much for a statement of intent!



Disappointing that we haven't landed him if he was our number one target. Can't help but wonder if this all playing out in the media has somewhat backfired. If that was Myler's doing, here's hoping he's learned a harsh lesson very quickly. If Pearson or Clark were involved... well you would think they would know better by now. That's if it was anything to do with the club of course.



So who do we go for now? And do we have to readjust our targets (both the club and us fans)? Are we attractive enough at the moment to draw someone away from their current role (whatever that is) or do we need to be looking at someone out of work?

Got to go NRL now. I'd make a play for Josh Hannay. Briers may be an option if he feels ready

"Leigh Leopards are delighted to confirm the signing of Darnell McIntosh from Hull FC in a swap deal that sees Tom Briscoe return to Humberside for a second spell with the Black and Whites.

McIntosh, 26, was in his third year at Hull, having joined the club from Huddersfield Giants at the end of the 2021 season. A highly talented and versatile back, who can play fullback, winger, or centre, he has signed a two-and-a-half-year contract."

Hang on, just reading into it a bit more and it seems that it's Salford that have rejected us and not Rowley himself. So is it possibly still on if we agree a higher compensation fee or Rowley potentially resigns?

Well it was fun while it lasted





On reading he HDM no sure what to make of it as to whether Rowleys rejected the chance or it’s Salford. They do have a habit of saying the opposite and saying no one is going anywhere then hey presto. If I were an employer I’d be disappointed that someone had extensive talks with another company in the first place if they weren’t that interested in moving.



If Rowley has decided against a move due to not wanting to uproot his family then for me he wasn’t the right fit for the club as we need someone totally committed. Though it does sound more a case of Salford rejecting it than Rowley ala Dupree etc.



Guess we’ll tune in tomorrow for the next episode of the soap opera that is Hull FC.

Still a statement of intent in that we’re prepared to pay a fee. A large one at that.

All the noise has come from outside the club. I’m happy that it shows that investment is incoming.

I’d also like Briers or Hannay.

The night is still young, there may be more to come!
