Sort of get the feeling he wont be coming back.
Lets get the next one in PDC.

Danny Graham can’t wait to get his year with Hull City underway after joining the Tigers on loan from Sunderland.
The striker is excited by his arrival at the KC Stadium, saying there are many similarities to when he joined Swansea City in 2011, a club where he enjoyed big success.
“I’m delighted to be here," Graham told www.hullcityafc.net "It’s great to come to a club where everybody is on a high after winning promotion and I’ve only heard good things about this club.
"I’ve spoken to the manager here and to Steve Agnew, who I know from my time at Middlesbrough, and like I say, everything I hear is good.
“It’s exactly the same as when I joined Swansea a couple of years ago, a club coming up into the Premier League. The stories for the two clubs are very similar.
“I know I’m coming to a good club with a top manager, a fantastic stadium and some very good players.
“When the chance came to sign here on loan, I jumped at it.”
Graham’s arrival at the Tigers' pre-season training camp in Portugal caps off a hectic few days for the striker, which has taken in Italy, where Sunderland were on a pre-season tour, Paris, Newcastle and Hull but the 27-year-old is happy to have done so with the belief that he has made the right move.
“It all started in Italy at 1pm on Tuesday,” added Graham.
“I’d spoken to the manager at Sunderland and been told that I wasn’t part of the plans, so when the call came I was straight onto a flight to Paris, then on to Newcastle, from Newcastle to home for a couple of hours and then on the road down to Hull before flying out to Portugal earlier this morning - I feel like I live on a plane at the moment!
“But it’s all part and parcel of what it’s all about. It’s all done now and I can look forward. Training camps are a chance for players to bond and I don’t want to miss out on that.
"We’ve got a couple of games out here as well, so if everything goes to plan I’m hoping to get involved in those, although the game on Saturday might come too early.”

He will probably say the same thing when he signs for Hartlepool next summer. Good luck lad..

MON should never have brought him here to expose you to the vilification of some Sunderland fans, when Fletcher got crocked & MON sacked the writing was on the wall.
He has been treat with respect by PDC - he was taken to Italy - and handled the news with dignity, which is more than some on this thread have.

How long does he have left on his contract with you guys? Is he due to leave on a free next summer or will you be looking to recoup some of the money spent?
I know it's a totally different situation as Sunderland are a lot bigger than us swans and can probably afford it, but after paying 5.5m for a player I'd want my team to persist and hope he comes good (he hasnt been with you that long really) rather than shipping him out for the season and essentially getting nothing in return.

Doubt we would pay 5 million and only give him a year and a half contract. He'll get some games this season (and score no doubt) then we'll sell him in the summer and recoup some money I presume.
Brucie's involved, we will get our money back and a few oversized Man U, B'ham, Us and Wigan training tops as well..
Ideal scenario when you think about it.
We'd be looking at £2-3million tops at the minute, if he gets 10 or so for Hull, which is plausible, we'll get our £5million back.
Now, to ambush the Toon's move for Betetimbi Gomis.....

I'm actually pretty happy with this signing, but since you lot think he's **** and are grateful we've taken him off your hands (for a season at least) you could return the favour with some fantasy football info. The question is, Sessegnon or Giaccherini? Their assist records seem to be similar (albeit Giaccherini was in a higher scoring team) whilst Sessegnon has scored more (but in far more games). What d'you reckon?
Cheers.

Don't get us wrong mate, when he put the effort in he was good, he played fantastic against Newcastle. But he completely gave up putting in any effort at all. He'll be alright for you unless he gives up of course. Giaccherini hasn't kicked a ball for us apart from a training ground practise match so can't give you any advice on that one.
