    You think everyone who signs for Hull City should quit international football to concentrate on playing for us? :emoticon-0112-wonde

    He's only 30 and he's only on loan.

    He was reported as having retired when he signed for us, or have you forgotten that?

    Now he seems to have changed his mind, not very convenient.

    He was caught up in the Brussels bombings and was sanctioned for missing a game as a consequence. Understandably, he thought this was rather unreasonable and quit in protest, he was always likely to return when the dust had settled. As you say, most inconvenient.

    Wish posters would put a link up.
    So Mbokani is still playing international football?
    So him and Elmo are going to be missing in January/February??

    Not good.

    The fact that he just got injured while on international duty was a bit of a giveaway.

    I'll say it again. I've no idea as there is no link. I didnt know if he'd announced it after playing.
    I dont know who the **** he plays for and i dont care.

    So he'll continue then i assume as i dont know. So we will lose him and Elmo to the ACON. Thats all im bothered about.

    You mean you don't actually read my team news thread?

    Disgraceful.

    We will indeed lose them for the ACoN, though hopefully Moses will be back by then and we might make additions in Jan.

    If Dave's back we really won't miss Elmo.

    What when you can put Elmo right midfield and Snoddy to left giving us more options. GTF

    Just think Elmo probably won't cut it after this season, even in the Championship, unless he's a squad player. We really need to recruit better cover for Dave in January, in which case if Dave gets injured whilst Elmo's away in January/February it won't matter as much.

    True, depending on who our owners are and if funds are available for the transfer window.

    Elmo was good for the latter part of last season. Poor for the frst part of the season and excellent before that,.

    Get this through thick ****ing heads. Elmo marked the CB for their goal. Their CB marked Maguire in their box. Thats ****ing **** organisation. Who is responsible for that? Ye exactly.
