Perhaps Acun doing Ronaldinho a favour…I seem to remember him being involved in some of his Survivor promo & photos of him on his plane. I’m sure he was quoted as saying ‘we’ll try and get him to a Hull game at some point’. He didn’t realised he’d have to sign his son to make this happen
We definitely wouldn’t be paying him the amount that we are put it that way. I expect a load of our first teamers will be demanding new contract. Could turn out to be a very costly signing indeed.
Troubling times indeed. It looked like we was turning a corner this summer but then a load of money gets dropped into favours for mates and overturns the apple cart once again.
V much so, in the same way as the ex-Shef U lads have a connection as well, it can be such a massive factor in players wanting to play for a certain club if they've got good friends there, helps people settle and stay happy
Does anyone recall when Southampton gave a contract to George Weah's cousin?..He came on as sub, did 20 mins, then got hooked and walked away laughing. That as to be a warning!!!
He wasn't actually Weah's cousin, but he/his agent supposedly convinced Graham Souness that he was in order to get signed.
