Don't shoot the messenger but it's being reported by a couple of posters on the HKR board that you have made Kris Welham an offer to sign. It was earlier said he was considering a move to Salford so I presume considering locations Hull FC would be his preferred destination providing the offer is similar to theirs. Bradford apparently were also interested but staying in Super League was obviously his preference.

I would've thought you'd be more bothered about more young lads leaving your club than matters at Hull FC?

great business for us,we could have sold him for £300,000 and some wouldn't be happy, let the doom mongers keep whinging away,when we start well they will soon scury under they rocks

Most fans seem to think this is a good move for the club including myself.
Joe lost his way when Pryce hit the scene.
Just hope we can bring in a quality strike centre

When you've been sold a line on Sunday afternoon games and realise you've only got 5 or 6 homegrown players left, of course Kris Welham is your top priority. Warm weather training camp in the USA, though.

I love the way mrs B and others slurp up the gash served to them, 150k for Westerman...do me a favour!

So you're suggesting both Hull and Warrington concocted a figure of £150K?

Are you saying the fee wasn't £150,000?

I do believe that is what I have said, I don't care, I just don't beleive anything coming out from the club at the moment, the spin, lies and deceit gives me not a single iota of confidence in anything they say. As I said, telling us it's £XXXX averts away from the truth not just of the fee but the situation as a whole. i clearly said this before, If you and others want to beleive the £150k fee is accurate that's up to you, i don't. A press release, what's said by X, Y and z won't convince me.

As far as I'm concerned the intention was to let Westerman go, which is fine, that's how things are, players come and go and coaches/owners change their minds on such matters, but the bull coming out of the club and it being a last minute deal is garbage in my honest opinion.
and if as many forummers have said it's too late to sign someone of quality to fill the void of his salary it just doesn't add up.
Indeed if we were in for another player for the backline, again, why are we keeping Yeaman?

Why would it be in Warrington's official press release?

Re: westerman : Tue Oct 20, 2015 5:49 pm  

Not one to put rumours, but I've heard Carney is done and will be announced soon.

No idea how we are getting him under the quota.
