    I have nothing against Adkins and his positive outlook on life we could all do with a dose of it especially some on here.
    He gets paid well to do a hobby and a passion.
    I also think he knows the frustration we are all feeling I back him 100%
    I just wish these owners would **** off and let us get on with loving our club again.

    Well, he should hold out for Swansea. Closer to where he is now, better run club, better facilities. Whatever pittance we offer will be blown out the water by them anyway. If we can’t attract a lad from Yeovil to the club, we should just jack it in now.

    Hull City working to sign Jordy de Wijs from PSV Eindhoven
    Last Updated: 05/07/18 5:31pm

    Jordy de Wijs is close to a move to Hull City, according to Sky sources
    Hull City are working on a deal to sign PSV Eindhoven centre-back Jordy de Wijs, Sky Sports News understands.

    The Tigers are hoping to have the 23-year-old as part of their pre-season training camp in Portugal next week.

    De Wijs, a product of the PSV youth academy, spent most of last season on loan at Excelsior after finding first-team opportunities limited in Eindhoven.


    With Michael Dawson returning to former club Nottingham Forest after his contract expired, the Dutch U21 international could fill the void left by the veteran defender. A clear priority for a Hull side who conceded 70 goals in the Championship last season.

    Hull have been busy in their search for reinforcements as Sky Sports News understand they are also chasing Yeovil defender Tom James.

    Well, he does have a remarkably thin head.

    Sorry, I had my child's first scan today. It's alive. Which is good news. I can knock up a little something later on if you wish?

    Apologies if my term 'stay loyal' was misinterpreted. I accept that there are many who see boycotting as a means of staying loyal to the club and being in the best interests of the club long term. Just think that its also in the best interests of the club that when the Allams finally leave we are still in the championship, and to do that the manager and 11 players who turn out for Hull City each week next season will need some support on a Saturday afternoon. I also agree in general that the fans who go to games haven't turned on the team, with a few exceptions.

    For Chazz. Because <3.

    1. De Wijs is a no nonsense centre half. He tackles hard, so he picks up a few bookings, but overall he is solid.
    2. For some reason, he's a brilliant free kick taker. Scored a few in the youth set up for PSV.
    3. He likes to run out from the back with the ball to start attacks when in possession and is less inclined to launch it. That being said, a decent pass accuracy means he can find his target if so inclined.
    4. His name is pronounced 'dee wise'.
    5. He made his Champion's League debut for PSV against Wolfsburg and did alright by most accounts.

    Seems like a solid acquisition. There are a few of these types of transfers going; U23s in foreign 'big' teams who want to play more. And at 23, he has a decent amount of time to progress.

    So he’s Harry Maguire who can take free kicks?

    I deliberately avoided the comparison, but I suppose if you were going to compare him to anybody from our past, it'd be Maguire.
