Hobbs selected for Team-of-the-Week: http://www.hullcityafc.net/page/NewsDetail/0,,10338~2523862,00.html Will he stay at the KC? or leave for the KP?
For once this weeks team of th week looks a decent side. Greedy bastard will probably sign them all up with his super budget.
Well done to Jack Hobbs. Can't see him following NP, like the rest of the lads he probably feels betrayed by him.
i agree with John, I think the lads we have got have a strong bond, Pearson should have stayed and reaped the benefits of his work here, I think we all know he will live to regret his decision, money isnt everything.
Money isn't everything but it certainly helps! I can't blame Pearson for going and I think we will be better off with Nick in charge
Hasn't it been reported recently that Jack has moved his family three times now and feels thats more than enough in such a short period of time?
Usually if he had been bothered by NP going it would have shown in his performance at Derby, obviously this was not the case as he had probably the best game for the Tigers, which is further evidenced by him being in the team of the week.
Both correct and both reasons he's staying (he moved his family here about a week before Pearson left) Anyway, he moved here for first team football as much as he came for Nigel Pearson. He's captain and he's playing every week, he simply won't be going anywhere
Hobbs will do well anywhere in this league tbh, and hes still young, you'll no doubt have some enquiries from the prem in the near future about him, and sell him for 3x plus what you paid for him.
Good to see Hobbs getting the recoginition he deserves, he's improving all the time and isn't as bad as some make out. I think having Nick in charge is a good move with a view to keeping the squad together. It's ensuring continuity and as someone already said there's a good team spirit in the squad that won't be easy to break up.
I doubt he'll want to go back. I heard somewhere he moved house to Leicester when NP signed him, and then to Hull. I doubt he'll want to move house yet again because NP has moved.

He's doing well - he's had MOTM and now he's got Team of the Week. He's captain and he's just moved his family to Hull.
Hope NB keeps Hobbs as Captain, he sounds like a decent sort. Noticed Nigel Clough's excuse in that report, "having to face £3m of strikers". Someone should have told him our goal scoring tally this term is not top class.
i am with you. plus last week Matt Fryatt tweeted that both he and Hobbs were goinmg nowhere and were committed to hull city now. what i saw @ derby more than cemented that tweet. in fact apart from maybe waggy, i dont see any of our players going to lesta and NP. they are now allowed to play properly and not the NP parking the bus system.
Is Fryatt's account real? I always assumed it was a fake. Even if it is real, we've seen that "I'm going nowhere" means nothing in football. Though then again, I doubt Leicester want/need him anyway.
