    The nine goals and six assists will probably soften the blow.

    This.

    Plus he was in and out of the side imagine what he would of done if we trusted him to plate every game. He would easily have scored the same as Bowen and got 12 assists.

    Big loss in my eyes.

    If the Allams are going to do it cheap we might as well try and pick up some youngsters and develop them. Worked out well with Maguire, Robbo and Clucas.

    I am all for being negative about the Allams as their constant ability to ruin a squad and have to rebuild year after year means we have no chance of a decent season as the players will need time to settle and gel.

    In isolation the signings seem decent enough. We need depth and lots of it though.

    I really want a striker as Campbell and Dicko are very poor in my eyes if we want top half. But if the aim is to finish 21st they will do.

    That’s actually good news did nothing last year and we can’t afford to carry a passenger in games .. his wages will cover two new players and a fee of maybe 2 million will buy 3 new players

    Grosicki IMO is no great loss overall, he really is suited as a super sub in a higher Championship or lower EPL team. His past record in France shows that is what he was there, mainly a sub, but we cannot carry such a play in the Championship, on his day brilliant, but not consistent enough.

    As far as buying players, I said on here a while back that from what I understand Ehab philosophy now is trying to buy younger players cheap, try to develop them, with the hope he can make a good profit, such as Maguire, Robbo & Clucas. The fact that the team wins is secondary to him is a bonus if it happens to work out, cash is king.

    I suppose that's why we all love the game so much.

    Good job we've got Keane as well then :emoticon-0138-think
    Just got to hope that all 3 come back from a full pre-season as 'different' rejuvenated players

    He did nothing other than score nine goals and six assists, putting him second only to Bowen, he’s obviously frustrating as a player, but it’s nonsense to suggest he contributed nothing.

    If he was just going on holiday, I wouldn’t have posted that someone was in for him and he’s on his way for talks. :emoticon-0112-wonde

    That’s the reality. I quite like Dicko and Campbell, but then you get to Keane :emoticon-0184-tmi:

    We have a great chance of signing this guy, as he’s rumoured to be enochlophobic.:emoticon-0145-shake

    According to the Russian press, Hernandez is about to sign a five year deal at CSKA Moscow and will earn a fortune.

    The knowledge of hull city fans has plummeted in my eyes reading some of the **** about Growshitski.

    Any black player going to Russia or Ukraine is a fool.
    They can't say they don't know what they are going to get.
    More to life than money.

    Bought into the media hype then, all that about the world cup in Russia, hooligans, racist, a general all over bad place to go. Even the FA chief Greg Clarke admits "it turned out a bit better than expected" <laugh>

    It's no paradise but if no one goes to change things then things will never change.

    He’s choosing them because they’re less racist than Leeds Scum.

    I understood Leeds was a done deal. CSKA must have jumped in when it was 99.875% complete.
