I'm beginning to doubt Slutski's excellent relationship with Abramovic.

He knows him through work, that's all.


I know loads of people through work.

None of the ****ers ever give me resources to make my job a piece of piss however.


Even when it's their ****ing job to.



Trust no one who says they can make your life easier.


They never do.

I dont doubt their relationship, I do think Slutskys targets were perhaps unrealistic. He's tried to attract players way out of our league and he's realised its not that easy bringing certain players to Hull.

Have we not signed players when we've been in the Championship?
Well don't include Silvia in your analogy then perhaps?

I guarantee Bruce was looking at different level players in the Championship from when he was in the Premier League.
 
Whichever way it’s dressed, and not necessarily being judgemental - it seems apparent the Tymon move is just about more money.

In my opinion, he’s not worth 7k p/w to a Championship club like us - it's just too much for a promising yet still unproven player.

Would he have accepted 5k p/w from us? 6k p/w from us? Maybe any other offer that was below 7k p/w was futile?

To hide any signs of being money orientated is quite easy with the prevalent anti-Allam narrative (I know because I am part of the anti-Allam narrative).

He'd have accepted 5k. He didn't have anything to accept in the end.
 
I think the other player we've been linked with (Polish fella) is a LWB - so could be something in it.

Rybus is primarily a winger, at least he was in Russia. I don't know if Lyon used him as a LB, but he didn't feature for them much last season. Presumably he would be a loan from Lyon, we couldn't afford those wages in the Championship.

I'm sure I'd read he was a LWB.
 
It's always been hard to attract players here because of our location but we've always managed to attract players good enough. However when you throw the Allams into the mix it complicates things a little more as I'm sure slutsky has found out.
All we can do is hope
