    Another twist


    @YoungSunEcho
    Interesting Hull willing to break transfer record to get Huddlestone. Still think ‪#‎safc‬ will have a say in it still

    I know Hull are in advanced talks with Huddlestone but I wouldn't rule S'land out just yet. ‪#‎safc‬

    @sunechograeme
    So expect S'land to have at least some say in the deal. Wd be surprised if they didn't make late move - know they're still in the mix. #safc

    if he goes to Hull:

    He wants an easy ride, knows he can get his pay packet and drink and etc


    If he comes to us:

    Bigger wages, Bigger Club, Bigger Fan base, Better Facilities, Better Prospects, Driven Manager


    Seems a easy decision for me

    Which is 5 million, paid for Bullard. I don't want to pay anymore than 5 million for Hudds like. Not with him being a potential flop. If this is true then I say we should drop out.

    Talking in terms of discipline…

    PDC I reckon will be far more strict than Bruce

    Also I reckon the training regime under PDC shall be far harder

    Hull City have agreed a club record £5.25million deal for Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Tom Huddlestone.
    And Tigers boss Steve Bruce has also secured a loan move to take Huddlestone’s Spurs team-mate Jake Livermore on loan at the KC Stadium for the season.
    Bruce is now hoping to agree personal terms with Huddlestone, but fears Sunderland could still make a late bid for the 26-year-old four-times capped England international.

    Sunderland boss Paolo Di Canio has already completed 10 signings this summer but has added only one Englishman in former Accrington Stanley striker Duncan Watmore, who has been signed primarily for the club’s development squad.
    Last week the Sunderland head coach announced he wanted an English midfielder at the heart of his team.
    That is not a reprieve for captain Lee Cattermole, who has been cold-shouldered at the Stadium of Light and lost his Number 6 shirt to new signing Cabral. Instead Di Canio he has been trying to persuade owner Ellis Short to pursue Huddlestone, who played well against Sunderland in the Hong Kong tournament last month.

    Bruce, who has been linked with a move for Cattermole, who he signed for Wigan Athletic and Sunderland, is desperate to add midfielders for Hull’s return to the Barclays Premier League, particularly with Republic of Ireland international Stephen Quinn ruled out for up to a month.
    Huddlestone, who has played more than 100 Premier League games for Spurs since his switch from Derby County eight years ago, has the necessary top flight experience for Bruce’s fledgling squad while Livermore, 23, impressed in his handful of Premier League games last season.
    If the pair do agree to quit White Hart Lane, they will follow former captain Scott Parker who is due to join QPR.

    LOL My comment is to the people like youngsunecho who think we may try & sign Huddlestone. this deal broke down weeks ago because we didn't want to pay 5m for him.

    Simple mate. Your manager allows it. He did it with us. Flatter yourself and say he's changed if you want but it doesn't matter jip. Fact is Brucie allows a drinking culture among the players at his clubs.
