    NO! Please no Kevin Davies...

    He's way past it. If he couldn't cut it at Championship level, he's definitely not going to have it at Premier League level.

    He'll just be after his final big pay deal. Didnt we try to sign him when PB was here.
    He's now a failing Championship striker. Don't need this type.

    Bit of a cheap backup but Sunderland are releasing Ryan Noble. Not had a good year last year but his scoring record in reserves was unbelievable. Not to be compared with Cullen cos this lad was getting hattricks against Newcastle and Man Utd. Bruce gave him a chance in Sunderlands first team too. Worth a twelve month deal to see how he develops???

    A couple of strikers who have been released:

    Carlton Cole (Wet Spam)
    Northampton Town's top scorer Adebayo Akinfenwa (not Prem standard, but a beast!)

    i just think Baptiste has all Hobbs attributes but is quicker and has premier league experience, albeit limited.

    Carlton Cole is a name that really interests me.

    Tickler is going to spunk his pants when he sees this (assuming he's not so old he can't manage it no more)

    I've always hated Dirty Kunt, I've never rated him that much either but true cant deny he knows how to score a gola. Is he available on a FAT?

    I think he has a release clause of about £850,000.

    Baptiste isn't coming.

    Phillip Buckingham @PJBuckingham
    Supposed #hcafc "target" Alex Baptiste agrees deal with Bolton (@Marclles). Not sure I ever saw it given central defensive options at KC.

    Not that i want him but i would take Akinfenwa over Kevin Davies any day. Davies couldnt cut it at champioinship level last season, and i would rather look at Le Fondre as a 'super sub'

    In the Premier League, his goal scoring record is worse than that, it's worse than 1 in 5(his biggest goal scoring season was in the Championship).

    Why should it be ? Much quality in that part of the world. plus the added bonus of an instant fan base in that part of the world.

    No No No. No question about his talent but he is trouble. Sad but true. We can do better for less money.

    The fact you think the PL now is better than in 2010 does not surprise me. Your not that good a judge anyway.
    As for Turner and Ricketts most City fans had there doubts. In fact less points that Derby Co. was the order of the day back then. Turner would fit seamlessly back into Hull City and the defence without a doubt.

    The people who think that Kevin Davies would not be a good signing for us for next season. He has points to prove and wont cost that much in wages. Bolton paid him less than we were paying Olifinjana ffs. What we need is PL experience anmd proven ability at that level.

    Good news if true.

    Baptiste is staying in Lancashire it appears now. As for Carlton Cole how long before he is linked with us but i expect him to stay down south. Maybe Fulham, Watford or Palace(subject to PL status) is where he will end up.

    Not quite. Glad that you know what spunk is BSM. Please also dont judge me or others by your own failings...Ok.?

    Carlton Cole blows so hot and cold for someone of his ability. Plus he is a sick note of late. Not for me thanks.
