Unless of course he already had a contract offer in his back pocket from Brighton, the move happened very quickly after he was released, we'll never know I guess. Was sorry to see him go.
He wouldn't have spoken so openly of his regret though in that case. He also tried to accept an offer back at the end of the previous year I'm pretty sure?
All open to debate, only Rosy knows. I share your view that had he been offered something acceptable, he would most likely have stayed
Rosenior stresses there is no resentment or animosity. "Football moves on," he says. But there is still room for regrets. "The plan was always to end my career at Hull but the fact I didn't was not in my hands," said Rosenior. "I had a great time with the manager. I think he's a great manager but you'd have to ask him his reasons for me not staying. "I had the contract offered and then it was taken away. From my point of view we were having negotiations and were very close. I wasn't asking for the moon. "I never said to the club I was turning down an offer. I never would have done. We were talking and I wanted to be there. "For one reason or another the manager decided I wasn't going to be part of his future and that's his job. I respect that and wish him all the best." http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/Liam...tory-26774270-detail/story.html#ixzz43WsaBjqN
Yeah if the plan was always to end his career at Hull I don't think he'd already agreed a deal with Brighton.
players and agents will always line up 'options', either in the event an offer doesn't materialise with an existing club or as a bargaining tool. We'll never know.
We made £6 million on Brady, same as long, Chester cost 300k, so we made £7.7 million! If numbers are to be believed anyway
Walsh and Shakespeare haven't signed those 'big money' contracts yet - I'm guessing that Villa, being a significantly larger club than Leicester, could match anything on offer at Leicester ....... it's danger time for Villa, they're such a shambles of a giant they could easily drop straight through if they get this next appointment wrong.
I thought Rosey was let go was because we were playing 3-5-2 at time and Bruce did'nt think of him as a wing back Then after letting him go we revert to 4-4-2 after losing the clubs best outright right full back.
With Rosy for me it was what he brought to the team. He literally had Hull City running through him. It was abad day when he left for reasons which are apparent now.
Odubajo is better and younger, and will improve. Tough call for SB, but I think he got it right. Good to ship out the accident prone McShane too. Shame Quinny went as he was very agile and quick, but we plenty of midfielders. With a lot of contracts, there are various triggers for extensions and pay rises. These are based on appearances and length of service. McShane cost us a fortune in wages - at one point we could hardly loan him out cos his confidence was shot after relegation, he was that unimpressive. The players will not pipe up about this stuff, only giving it the big sob story. It's far more of a pity Fryatt went...I know he's long term sick note, but he has a proven goalscoring knack over Aluko and the unproven Anne Diomande.

Yes, plenty of them support City. It's a bit embarrassing to take issue with people calling the club a diminutive of it's actual name, but insist they can be called The Tigers, given everything that's gone on the last few years.
