I know Sky said we’re preparing it, fair enough we’ve placed it.

Agree with you that we shouldn’t go higher than that.

get him in, clearly a level headed and smart bloke. Hull or Cov is a no brainer
Click to expand...
Not according to this nugget on the Hull forum
Why would Hughes even consider Cov - 25 years since they were last in the Prem plus it's a ****hole - compared to City, 5 seasons in the Prem in the last 20 years plus it isn't a ****hole

Given that this and the attempt to buy Rushworth outright both seem to be fairly legit it’s clear there is still a decent pot to spend on the right players. Still sticking largely to the model of younger players who will gain value which i think is the right thing to do personally. Makes me wonder if there is truth in us being one of the clubs in for Kone, if we can offload a striker.
Click to expand...

where’s this come from that we’re in for Kone?

I’ve seen most other clubs mentioned, but not us, and to be fair I wouldn’t be upset if we weren’t - not sure he’s any better than what we have currently

Either we're genuinely in for him or it'll hopefully unsettle him ahead of Saturday. Good either way.

Dougie is really against leakes about possible transfer targets and my personal opinion is that a lot of smoke screen info is being thrown about! If we are after someone we don't know about it yet!

It’s absolutely nothing to do with being in club promotional videos. They’re obligated to do that.

It’s the fact he has posted it to his personal story 2 days before they play the team he would be signing for. Do you really think with all the knowledge around PR and media training there is nowadays, he would do that? Come on boys.

This suggests he doesn’t expect it to be happening any time soon and certainly not going to affect his place in the team for Saturday.

I just don’t think their manager would be going as strong as he has been, and risk pissing off the fans this early in his tenure, if it was likely to happen. I know people will say ‘well he’s not going to say he’s leaving’ but he also doesn’t haven’t say over and over again that he’s not being sold, he’s definitely staying etc. There is some level of middle ground between the two that it would be a lot easier to land in if he thought there was a chance he was going to leave.
Click to expand...
Unless the manager, already pissed off at the owner's broken promises, is seeking to dissociate from any decision to sell him

Hull fans have proven to be some of the most deluded, arrogant fans I’ve come across this window. Saying that Hull isn’t a shithole for a start is delusional, let alone saying it’s better than Cov, and then to say that Hughes is worth £20m + add-ons is the most ridiculous valuation I’ve heard from any fan in the championship. Oh, and grown men there pretend to be tigers before every game ffs

Yeah find it hard to believe we would have leaked anything. Doug will be unhappy that other clubs now know we’ve got that kind of money to throw around

The comments from the Hull manager are just strange

Why are they strange he just made a flippant remark. What's this thing about refering to " Doug " and " Frank " . Only people I refer to by their first names are my children or friends.
