Centre Craig Hall has ended all the speculation and rumours over his future by signing a new two year deal with Hull FC. It is a deal which commits the 20 year old to the club until the end of the 2010 season, and he revealed: “This is the club I have always wanted to play for.”

Hall has been linked with a number of Hull’s Super League rivals, included neighbours and arch rivals Hull KR, but he said: “Everyone had been saying that because my dad played for Hull KR I was going to join them and that just wasn’t the case.
“I am delighted I have now put these rumours to bed because I have to admit they were starting to get to me a bit.
“People were asking me about it all the time, the websites were full of it, and at first it didn’t bother me but then I got really fed up with it all.
“The rumours were all over the place but now that’s over and I am delighted to have sorted out what I believe is a good deal to stay with Hull.
“It is where I want to be and I can now just concentrate on playing for Hull, helping them have success and improve my own game.”
Like all 20 year olds, Hall is ambitious and wants to enjoy success, and he added: “I believe I can achieve all my ambitions at this club and that is one of the reasons why I am staying.
