There are some shocking one here, but have any actually effected the club off the pitch as much as Harris, I can think of one, but it is in football and the other way round.

Eric Cantona Leeds - Man U

Leeds were champions mostly due to his exploits so why sell him to your main rivals???

He could actually play - that would not do with Wilkinson so he had to go - the rumour he was seeing Lesley Ash might have had something to do with it

The rumour about him seeing Steve Hodge was far more entertaining!

Could list loads at Oldham, but dont think it was good business when we swapped Tommy Martyn and Chris Joynt for a past it Paul Groves!

Funny how he smacked Ryan Hudson and is derided yet Korkidas does sod all apart from smack a Fev player in a friendly and go on a run against Hull in the play-offs and is touted as a 'legend' by some of our muppet supporters!

(The answer is probably Clinton O'Brien from that vintage....)

Correct, Seers was poor considering his reputation. However Korki got a legendary reputation by being massively average on occasions. TBF on Korki he never arrived with a reputation so in his own way achieved more than we could have expected.

Korki appeared in David Hinchcliffes MP all time Trinity greats, this from a giy old enough to remember the 1960's. This muppet helped run the country and is now a big player in our stadium project

David Hosking in the early 90's. I don't think he ever broke a tackle.

Ryan Benjafield at Hull?

Misili Manu - fast enough but skill wise he was woeful I'd say a 1000 times worse than Penny's technical ability!!! Problem was he thought he was too good to play for the Skolars where his dad was a part of the set-up but in reality he would have been a pretty dangerous player for them!

Think Mal Reilly as coach was one of our worst signings but luckily we had the balls to release him, never watched a more boring brand of RL!!

Current Hull FC team?

A bloke called Lyndsey Johnson, had a birds name and tackled like one as well.

Sadly I wasn't around for the 60s, but I could have guessed anyone in a team which, you know, actually won trophies, was probably a better player than one in a team which finished a place away from relegationa few times....
