    O'Driscoll won't be going back to Donny either apparently.

    Surprised O'Driscoll turned down Barnsley. Seems the right move from my vantage point. Blackburn maybe?

    I think Sven probably will go there. Their owners will think he's a big name so he will be a safe bet and he will please their fans

    I didn't really realise it at the time, but Sven probably set us back a year. It wasn't the quality of his signings, more their temperament. I'm sure Sven saw them as having the attitudes of winners and paid them accordingly, but time as proven most of them to be a group of overpaid moaners. Even some of those that have knuckled down under Pearson have the potential to be troublesome if mismanaged, while most of those that Pearson has signed seem to be workers that just got on with the jobs they're assigned to do. I don't envy Blackburn if Sven is heading there, but he will suit the circus atmosphere of that club at the moment.

    Hull City have today signed David Meyler and Robbie Brady, for undisclosed fees! People are saying, however, that Meyler cost 1.5m and Brady cost 2m

    No pressure then <ok>


    2m for a left back in this league is absurd.

    Left back/left wing back. Pretty much the same.


    I'd argue that de Laet and Konch are wing backs for us. The amount of goals we score because Konch/de Laet has crossed it in from the byline is crazy.

    Well according to this and that table supplied by our Millwall friend in another thread, Hull have now £8m down in two seasons. Trying to buy the league?

    Villa losing to Bradford

    @StupidFootball: Who would have guessed Aston Villa would be a worse team without Emile Heskey? <laugh>

    All this not playing Darren Bent to save a couple of quid. They will get relegated at this rate.

    Bent is a few appearances away from triggering a clause which says Villa will have to pay Sunderland a rumoured 6M

    They should look at it another way. If someone offered them the chance to sign Darren Bent for 6M then they would have snapped their hand off. Bent will score goals for them

    Bradford deserved the win, they were really good tonight.

    Matt Duke was great in goal(Hull City), as was Nathan Doyle(Hull City) and Will Atkinson(Hull City), all expertly marshalled by their manager, Phil Parkinson(Hull City).
