Weird move, leaves them with just May and Lewis, think something must have gone on.

I'm sure Peters was bigging him up before Christmas

I'd have Abdul back here, good player, just a bit injury prone.

Yeah I thought the same, they've lost Milnes and now Abdull which has left them short in the halves.

Maybe he's had too much Christmas chocolate? Seems an odd move with the season 6 weeks away.

Fitness is his biggest issue, if he can have a decent season in France he'll have plenty of teams after him.

I did hear that Peters and he had fallen out, which may or may not have been the case, but it weakens them in depth, as he can be very good when motivated and fit, but those two words may mean different things to him than other pro's and it just shows that maybe managing a squad with some egos is something Peters is yet to master?

Crikey, how will they frame this after banging the "Man of Steel Elect" drum for so long?

I believe Abdul has a few issues going on outside the game , A move to France and away from Hull will probably be good for him.

It’s unfortunate timing announcing his departure just a day after kr owner was touting for post office business in the hdm..

After saying he "hates" Hull FC I think any chance of him coming to us in 2025 is slim to none.

Not sure Rovers will be happy with who they're looking to replace him with either

Abdul foe 2025? May as well start the rumours early

Would still require a fee to sign for 2025, rules your skint lot out.

Jake Clifford? I could forgive him for making one wrong choice in life

Similar to Griffin maybe? Weakened us in the short term but better for the player and club in long term
