It seems odd that someone would want to leave Wigan for Salford if they've got no personal attachment though. Hull are his boyhood club, his partner is expecting and both of their families are in Hull. In terms of attractiveness to a player I would imagine that the overall package at Hull is more tempting. Although tbf Koukash can probably pay whatever he wants.
Moon left Salford to play for a bigger club and win trophies. With all due respect to Salford that isn't the case here.
I don't know if he actually has an agreement with Hull, although I'm led to believe he has. However, if he doesn't and he decides he loves Salford then so be it.
Fair points.
However, it may only be attractive to him because of his roots there. Hull, at the moment, is certainly no better a choice than Salford with regards to on-field attraction.
I'm not going to go into a slagging match about both Cities locales. That wont achieve anything. All I'll say is that the Clubs luxury housing at Salford Quays and its access to everything city centre Manchester has to offer, plus MK's dosh would be more of an attraction to most. Of course, all this is conjecture and I don't doubt that he sees himself going back home at some point. Twelve months is a long time and nobody knows the fortune of either Club in that time, or indeed, the lay of the land come the end of next season.
