| Quote Jake the Peg="Jake the Peg"Would you rather play for a team who had won 4 of the last 5 superleague titles or a team that has won 1 trophy in 20 years?'"
Exactly. We have to win things before we will tie down a lot of talent on long-term deals. Very rarely do players sign long term for poorer teams. |

we got a bridge an a big un too which leeds hasnt got........................
we are greener and more conservative than leeds (I think thats why the fountains are always not working anyway)

Hull royal infirmary is nice and listed concrete which leeds hasnt got....................
Hessle road is in the doomsday book which leeds hasnt got (or was it marked as first thing hitler was going to blow up i cant remember but it sounded like that)

| Quote Mild mannered Janitor="Mild mannered Janitor"If[size=200 you consider that most of the players Leeds are signing up on long term deals are either from their youth team or are West Yorks lads, it means those individuals are not having to relocate[/size.
Leeds, like Hull, has its poor areas and its not so poor areas. What makes Leeds a more attactive place to live is its City Centre and the fact that you are a 45 minute drive in all directions from loads of different places such are the transport links.'"

Players at the end of the day are prostitutes, shown by Manu.

So if you got offered a better deal than your current employment you would still stay where you are?
Playing is a job, if offered better,off you go. |

indeed, and lets be honest, once an overseas player has come and settled then it hardly matters wether you are playing in Salford, St Helens, Huddersfield, Castleford or Hull, it's less than 2 hours from the furthest two points, and as much as there are differences between L**ds and the other towns, there's f'k all to chose between Wigan, Warrington, Bradford and Hull.
Same job, same expectations on more money, most people would go. (other than [isome[/i people from Hull, who seem unprepared to venture out of a HU post code for work) |

Speaking as a former Leeds resident, I agree!
If it wasn't for the rugby, my family and my childhood friends, I wouldn't have moved back. There's not much going on here unfortunately. Whereas in Leeds, there's loads. And if you can't find anything, there's Cas, Bradford, Huddersfield etc on the doorstep.'"

The differences between Hull and Wigan/Warrington/Widnes/St Helens/Wigan/etc are that they are on the doorstep of a huge metropolitan city. Hull is the best place to go in a 60 mile radius. |
