highly highly doubt that. the main reason being it is public knowledge the guy's available on a free. who in their right mind would then offer cash for him ? :)
 
Yeah good thinking, I was gonna ask you to do it anyways like!

So you think he's gonna go?
I read in HDM yesterday he doesn't even have an agent, so he could just stay put and be a greedy b*****d
 
I think that one major thing that his trip to Ipswich has taught him, is that he definitely doesn't want to be back in Hull, I now think he's far more likely to be flexible to make deal happen so he can carry on hanging out in that pub he bought his Dad.

unless his form at ipswich managed to drum up some kind of dutch auction.......
 
He got Ipswich's player of the season, and he only played 17 games for them!

Pretty impressive, i would love him to play for us again, but he just wont take the pay cut, as wouldnt anyone else in the real world!
 
i'd still be surprised but this bullard to norwich rumour does seem to be gathering pace and is in a number of sources. ipswich fans would love that, probably feel a tad embarrassed awarding him their player of the year after 17 games only for him to head off to their biggest rivals.

if we were to get £1.5m for him we'd be laughing.
 
Was in today's Sun as well. They are generally awful with their Championship/lower PL transfer rumours, but if the Mirror are reporting it and SSN have enough of a foundation to mention it, something could be brewing.

We would never get £1.5m though. Sounds more like what his annual wage would be
 
I could see us getting a fee in this region, his form at Ipswich has increased his worth so to speak, Ipswich want him (or did until he has said he would go to Norwich) and Jewel wants him, Norwich are apparently keen, as are QPR, Wigan and possibly Blackburn. £1.5 mill for us, plus a £1.5m sign on fee (to supplement a £30k pw wage)from his new club makes him a reasonable price for his ability
 
Think the 1.5 million would more likely go 2 the player as a signing on fee

Exactly what I was thinking in a way, the 1.5 mil could be a way of balancing budgets. Say they have a wage cap of 30k p/w, and only so much to offer as a signing on fee, they could use 1.5 mil of their transfer budget to give to us, with which we will make up the difference in the wage for what he has left with us. Jimmy still gets all his 45k p/w as if he'd stayed with us and a move to a new club in the prem, we get rid of an expensive luxury with broken knees which we can't afford free of charge, everyones a winner!

You got me on ignore? As has been a popular response on here recently FOADYC! ;)
