Don't confuse salary cap with overseas quota.

They have already taken someone off quota so Dobson could play. He's currently suing them for £50,000.

Cant see us beating Salford. We play worse against the poorer sides and when those teams have loads of injuries. After Fri performance I cant see where our next win is going to come from. Maybe Wakefield!

When Hull postponed their game against Bradford ? a couple of season's ago because although the visitors arrived at the KC whereas three or four out of town Hull players failed to arrive due to an accident on the M62, could their opponents have claimed the points?
And what exactly stopped Hull from playing members of their under 19's on that occasion.

That's a poor comparison. Salford have all week to prepare youngsters if they have to. Hull's misfortune due to a RTA left about an hour to sort something out. You can hardly expect to draft in 5 or 6 from the U-19's at that sort of notice.

Hull have quite rightly told Salford to poke it, cheeky gets.

That's a completely different situation and cannot be used to compare the current one. Salford have 3 whole days to sort a team out whereas we had only an hour...

You realise the M62 disruption that day effected both sides, don't you?

And it wasn't four players, it was nine.

Slightly different situation.

Poor effort Zoddy. 1/10

I'd rather a papering of the cracks if it contributes to my club staying up. Hate to think what relegation would do

Where the under 19s at the ground?

He's a poor poster.

My first thought after hearing about Salford's request was that it was some sort of mind game. Even Koucash can't have thought for a second that Hull would agree or that the RFL would sanction it.

It's up to Koucash and Harris to build a squad able to cope with eventualities such as a few injuries and/or suspensions.

That's a very poor comparison as already pointed out by a fellow rovers supporter,but don't let that get in the way of trying to score a pathetic" who can p**s up the wall furthest" point against us.
