    Anyone got a wish list? Brady & chessy back! Crouchy & walton! Marshall! Kanu! Players who've still got a bit of fire in their bellies?

    We've signed two youth players, Mannion from Wimbledon and Edwards from Peterborough.

    Hull City boss dealt transfer blow

    Hull City boss Steve Bruce has been dealt a blow with the Tigers board limiting him to free transfers only, the Sun reports (Friday edition, page 54).

    It is claimed the newly-promoted side do not want to fork out for fee-paying transfers amid uncertainty over a proposed takeover at the KC Stadium.

    The news comes a day after centre-back Michael Dawson became the seventh Hull star to be sidelined through injury, leaving Bruce, who is yet to make any new signings, with a player shortage ahead of their season opener at home to Premier League champions Leicester City.

    Probably bollocks, but nothing would surprise me now.

    Any other club and you'd think "surely not". For some reason I could see this happening at ours!

    I personally think that The Sun has looked at our known targets and added 2 and 2 together, however this time they may have come up with 4.

    If that was the case, then continuing takeover discussions would have had zero impact.

    I ****ing hate the Allams. A pair of outright Cockwombles.

    If they have any sense the free ones (HRK) will turn us down

    So first we have Brucie meeting with the Allams on Monday and handing them his wish list, with the parting shot it`s down to the chairman now, and then we have a speculative piece suggesting that we are not going to spend any money on transfers. Bruce`s decision to stay was based apparently on being given certain assurances, I have to say I agree OLM I think this latest red top `exclusive` is complete bollox tbh, doesn`t add up with what has gone before, however with these two at the helm ya never know.

    i remember walking down wembley way, the sun blazing down, another season in the premiership to look forward to, could it get much better? who would we sign? the close season full of rumour and hope. fast forward six weeks and the excitement has gone. what is it with this club? sort it out before its way too late.

    With the two muppets in charge don't dispel the rumour yet. Mind you I think they will be looking for a new manager if true.

    I would leave if I was Bruce. At least he can leave with dignity, he's only an employee and owes the club nothing. We on the other hand are fans and we're lumbered.

    So come september we could:
    have no manager
    signed no decent players
    be bottom of the league
    Pl supporters cancelled their DD
    Gates of 14-15000

    I can see the Americans jumping at the chance to buy us

    I would like to see a staff and player revolt!

    Bruce, Phelan, Robbo, Hudd, Livermore basically any player withna release clause and say we either see some signings in next week or we are off.

    Even our greedy owners can see how much the club value will drop and how they would never recoup their money. Egos would also be hit knowing each and eveyone who left would be in media explain ing why they left due to inept owners

    Think you're being massively optimistic, no way we'd have 14k in that situation.
