Absolutely no chance of anyone taking on his loans. A chunk of it already appeared to be wriiten off in the latest accounts.

Michael Worrincy and Ade Adebisi were on loan alongside LMS to the Hull FC academy in 2005. I think all for just one year.

I've only ever seen him described as his son. Even by the club's social media.

All the shares in London Rugby League Limited are actually in the name of Hughes Jr. They were transferred to him in Dec 2022.

I think the club would say timing and the fact we didn't expect to be in SL. Having said that, the prior 2 seasons in the Championship we didn't really assemble a decent squad until half way through the season anyway.

Hughes has pumped in his money in a pretty ineffective way. He leaves the club in a much worse position than when he took sole control. I believe he's almost 80 and perhaps couldn't afford to sustain things any longer. The statement is amazingly brief and doesn't offer much hope. Hughes voted for the IMG grading system in April 2023 when pretty much all the details were known and it would have been obvious what the implications were. At that point, I think it would have been considered pretty unlikely we would have been in SL in 2024. Would he have quit if we spent this season in the Championship ? We had certainly recruited a Championship team albeit they gave everything in SL. If he's quit because we are not going to be in SL then it's frankly childish.
